Today marks the due date for the Ugly Fabric Challenge issued by our local chapter of the American Sewing Guild. I originally posted about this in May here:
Various and Assorted Catching Up. It seems like a long, long time ago now! Of course, I put it off until the last minute. Bad me. Once I adjusted to the color of the fabric, I knew it would be perfect for the guys in my life! They look good in browns so 2 pairs of pajamas pants it was! I used
Simplicity 5364. All of one pattern piece required. Super easy, just matching the plaid took a bit of time, during the cutting out. Sewing was a breeze using the walking foot on my machine! It used up most of the fabric, too. Good feeling!
The only thing to note is that I put in elastic in the bottom of ds's pants so his can be longer since he keeps growing! Otherwise, no changes at all.
A brown or black t-shirt and this project is ready for the cold weather!
There were some really terrific projects tonight. People were very creative with their ugly fabrics!
