On the sewing table

Butterick 5814 is done, waiting for undergarments for it's debut photo shoot.  Speaking of undergarments bra muslins happen to be on my sewing table. Seems I'm working on 2012 sewing resolutions as well.

On the sewing table this morning but off it now.  PJ top for me.

Another version of Sewaholic Renfrew pattern but with 1x2 ribbing for the binding.  The ribbing fabric behaved differently in every location and I had to remove different amounts of length from the pattern.  The breakdown was 3" off the neck binding, 2" off the hem binding and 1" off the sleeve binding.  At least that's pretty easy to remember. Now excuse me I have some reading to do.

    1. Haven't bought that fabric yet, but maybe next month. But if I buy that it's being made into "real" clothing. :)

  2. AHHH!! I LOVE your pj fabric!! And thanks for the calculations with the ribbing. I'm sure I'll be using that as a reference in the future.

    1. Thanks Trumbelina, I think if you used 1x1 ribbing you'd have to take more length off the bindings. Maybe sometime I'll try that but this time the 2x1 matched the narwhal fabric perfectly.
