Effi's kimono jacket
This a quick jacket I made for my 8 year old daughter Effi using Ikea fabric. I softened the fabric by following good advice from the Gatherings. Design from Ottobre Autumn 2008.







Re: Bias 101
Ever since I read your article, I have been changing lots of pattern pieces into bias. I absolutely love that! If cut generously a bias front on a blouse works wonders for my not so little tummy! Thank you!

Speed in garment construction is easier to by serging. If your needle breaks when serging, there is no better tool to use for removing it than a bent-nose plier. This beading tool gives you the stability and accuracy you need to remove the broken needle in seconds.

Re: Silk Lotus Flower
I have been reading a number of instructions about making fabric flowers and this is by far the BEST. Thank you so much, dear Kenneth, for sharing this with us!
