The Pinterest Challenge.

If you're just getting on board you can read about what this is here.

Well here it is. My adorable little jumper project. Here is the original pin.

I cut the inseam in a wide U shape to create a harem pant effect.

I cut two pieces. A front and a back but this could easily be done by cutting just one piece and sewing the seam in the back. I'll do that next time.

I hand stitched around the edges to create the cinched look. I don't know what the technical term for this is but I remember seeing my mom do it for something. Then I sewed the bias tape over that.

My camera battery died while I was doing the bias tape and neck tie so I'll just tell you I used a 2 inch strip of an old tablecloth in my repurpose pile. It was soft and had a nice contrast with the vintage sheet I used for the actual jumper.

Is she nuggaliscous or what!?

Thanks ladies! This was really fun!

More Fab Fabric!

The vintage gods must be smiling on me because this vintage fabric showed up yesterday via my BFF Danielle. She picked it up at an antique outing a few years back and never did anything with it and thought it might have better luck in my hands. She was right.

 Thanks Danielle!

I'm not exactly sure what kind of fabric it is but my Mom is coming to visit today and she can probably tell me with better accuracy.
