Sewing Project for September 3rd

So far I'm 3 for 3 this month.

I remembered I had started a new case for a porch cushion the other year. I got as far as pinning the edges to make a seam.

This took me all of 10 minutes to cut, pin, sew and serge. I eye-balled straight lines while sewing(I've gotten really good at that), and the hardest part was getting that pillow inside the case! It's definitely a tight fit, but it works.


features: 
  • different front and back fabric
  • the back has the envelope/pocket style closure
  • serged all around the inside seams

I wanted to make a really easy skirt without a pattern for awhile now and after scouring the interwebs for an hour I found a couple sites with some pretty easy instructions. (you can check them out here and here ).  I didn't want it to be overly complicated- so no zipper or fabric waistband, but I did want a lining and an elastic waistband. I bought some YaYa Han cosplay brocade (the full cosplay line here ) and some purple lining ( the online picture is a crimson- IRL it's a purple that matches the brocade) from Jo-Anns.  I already had some soft  1.5 in elastic from another project( that i haven't started yet...). The last clothing item I made turned out really badly so since I've sewn and learned some new tricks since then, I was pretty optimistic about making this skirt. It seemed really easy while reading it onl...
