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!

Re: Post your sewing tips

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!
