Hi Everyone! In part 4 we wrap up the topic with a closer look at some of the techniques shown earlier. First, we'll look at sewing exposed elastic on tiny waistbands and then I'll show you an example using the shirring technique to create a different look for the CA Cami. The main takeaway from this post is not to be afraid to experiment with techniques and ideas and use them in existing patterns and designs! I hope you enjoy taking a more in-depth look with these hands-on videos!
Hi Everyone! This week we wrap up the topic of fabric manipulation with a look at fabric dyes. This is a great way to add a unique touch to your garments! With a bit of trial and error and all the right supplies, I'm sure you'll learn to confidently add this technique to your project planning.
Hi Everyone! In part 3 we're going to take a look at sewing with exposed elastics. Both flat and fold over elastic work well for this design element. It is functional as well as fashionable! 
Hi Everyone! This week we'll take a closer look at the ruching technique. This technique adds an amazing amount of visual interest to a design and the best part is, it's very easy to do!
Hi Everyone! This week we'll take a closer look at creating and working with pintucks. Pintucks are tiny pleats folded and stitched down on the fabric. They can be used horizontally or vertically in a given design. Often times they are used in groupings of three, as shown in the Boomerit Falls Dress, Steam Bib Top, and Roebuck Bay Skirt designs. They are a great way to add visual interest without any additional cost or materials. I love techniques like this!
Hi Everyone! In part 2 we're going to take a look at working with casings. A casing is a tube created with fabric, thread, or an applied trim. When combined with elastic, it creates an adjustable fit for the garment. It can be used on a waistline, neckline, or sleeve. They are very easy to create and use!
Hi Everyone! Let's talk about something I like to call Fabric Manipulation!
