Goth Gardiner's entry 1

Pattern was self-drafted many years ago. 

Fabric was 1m of "scardey cat" from funki fabrics.

This fabric was quite thick with less stretch than I've used previously.  I should have made the pattern a bit bigger, but it's not tight enough that I feel inclined to unpick it.  Sleeves with that rouching mean that my fat arms are hidden, and that I don't need to worry about pattern matching.

and now it has worked.  Have absolutely no idea what I've done differently!

Need to go out shortly - will try and re-do my original post later.

Sorry @Acorn if I have been doing something stupid!

The file extension is.jpg.

I've taken it down to 323kg - that's not that big surely?  I thought the limit was a lot bigger.

@Acorn  "Post".

I thought it had got better as I was just able to upload a "test" message, albeit without an attachment 

I get   [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]  when trying to upload an attachment.  In this case a 699kg jpeg.

But I got the same message again in this thread a moment ago, so  not just a problem with that thread i think.

I quite like v1683, and years ago might have bought the pattern, but now I have learned to draft my own probably won't bother.

Nice!  Neckline  is beautifully done.

@Manuela depends on whether I do the snakeskin dress as the weekend. That plan is more elaborate.

I am finished.  Made with a metre of fabric to a self drafted tried and tested tshirt pattern.  The sleeves have pleats in them -, gives room for my somewhat muscular arms  and means I don't have to sorry about pattern matching.

Looks better on!

I am not sure if this counts as jungle ... It's "scardey cat" from funki fabrics. Younger cats in jungles don't you?

Access All Accessories / Re: Making a dust cover

When I made dust covers for the husband's mixing desks and keyboards I just used heavy denim. But they were just covers and I am wondering if you are thinking of a carrying case? If so, you might be needing canvas and weaving and some kind of padding.

Unless you are sure that the girls will like cartoon polar bears, while the boys get something more "adult' I would make them all plain.

Perfect for the.job.

An idea that could be easily done again for other tool I would think. Or done for things like cosmetics.

@SkoutSews  i haven't ever thought about 1 and 2 (I bought the machine with a bonus and she has yet to need servicing). The other things haven't been an issue, although I suspect that my machine has more manual features than the new ones today as I have to lift up my presser foot and set my tension manually.
