Yesterday, these ladies refashioned a plain old sweatshirt into these adorable appliqued jackets. Nice work everyone!

Converting a Plain Sweatshirt into an Adorable Jacket

Posted in Sewing, tagged dog, sweatshirt jacket on September 9, 2015| Leave a Comment »

I just finished converting a sweatshirt into this cute jacket. It’s really pretty easy to do. And we will be offering a class soon at The Studio for anyone who wants to make their own. It’s fun to create something that represents your personality. Of course, mine had to have a dog!

I think I will change the sleeve cuffs on this one. They are a little long so maybe I will change them up. Watch for an updated photo and info on the class coming up soon. (Click here to see another converted jacket from earlier this year.)

Another Jacket Scene – Paris

Sandra’s Jacket with Parisian theme

Close-up of the Eiffel tower

A few days ago I posted about a jacket that I made with my friend Sandra. (You can read about it here.)

Mine had a dog on it – surprise, surprise! But Sandra’s had a wonderful Parisian theme. As promised, here is photos of hers. I love her Eiffel Tower. She felted it and them embellished it with thread and sparkles. Fabulous. She is an absolutely master seamstress and fiber artists.

And it’s so nice to have a sewing partner that likes the same things I do. I am sure I will learn so much from Sandra. We are working on a different type of jacket this week. 🙂

Sweatshirt Jacket with Embellishments

One thing I seldom do anymore is have the time to create a project that is just for me. I am always creating but generally it is commissions for other people or painting lessons for classes or Paint Parties. This past week I spent two glorious mornings working on something for me!

My friend, Sandra, who is an amazing seamstress and fabric artist, met me at The Studio for a couple of mornings of sewing and gabbing. We had soooo much fun! And we made super cute jackets with lovely embellishment. I had found this McCall’s pattern not long ago and wanted to try it and when I mentioned it to Sandra she was all in. It is made by using two sweatshirts! But of course, the embellishment is what makes it so personal. I am sure you are not surprised to see a dog on mine. (I will try to get a photo of Sandra’s to post soon. Her’s has a Paris theme.)

What fun it is to make something while chatting with someone who has similar interests. The time just flew by. And it was such a delight that we decided we need to do it more so we will hopefully do something else next week. 🙂
