Happy 2015
everyone! I hope you had a wonderful
holiday season. The hubster and I spent
Christmas hiking in Joshua Tree, then headed to an Indian restaurant for
dinner. Extremely untraditional, but we
had so much fun. In keeping with that
playful spirit, I wanted to add something bright and cheerful to my winter
wardrobe. Browsing through Pinterest, the
photo below caught my eye. I loved how
colorful these African print sweatshirts were and simply had to have one. I
already owned a plain grey sweatshirt and still had a stash of African print
fabrics I collected in South Africa. Making
it was a cinch!
Supplies:
Sweatshirt
African wax print fabric
Matching thread
Tissue /tracing paper
Tailors chalk
Scissors
Pins
Sewing machine
Method:
1] Lay your sweatshirt on a
flat surface and trace the seam line of the front panel. Make sure to stretch
the waistband, until the fabric lays flat, when tracing the sides and bottom.
2] Add ½” seam allowance to
the template and cut.
3] Cut the print fabric
according to the template.
4] Fold the raw edge of the
African print ½” towards the wrong side of the fabric and iron flat. It helps to notch the neckline in a few
places when molding the curve.
5] Pin the African print
fabric along the seam line of the sweatshirt and sew.
And that’s it! A super easy sweatshirt DIY to kick-off the New
Year.
Looking to do some more
sewing? Stay tuned. I will release my doll sewing patterns
soon. The first one I’ve been working on
is the “Queen of Pop” herself, Madonna.
With her big hair bow, large cross necklace and tulle skirt she’s
rocking that 80’s “Like a virgin” look. You can find more images over at my Etsy store. My patterns will have to be
tested before going online, so if there are any fellow bloggers who would like
to be involved, please send me an email.
I’d love to hear from you.
Happy sewing, Nicole.
