Sometimes I name my clothes.
❤
Naming my latest REinvention wasn't difficult.
This jumper was REcreated
using two wool jumpers & a cotton knit long sleeve T-shirt.
I like a boat neck best on my tops
and after cutting to shape the orange jumper,
I inserted the unpicked side seam of the pinky jumper around the neck edge,
creating a narrow roll collar.
I also used another finished edge from the pinky Jumper
to achieve the hem edge I desired.
At the moment the sleeve edges are finished with overlocking stitch
which I'm in 2-minds over....
if I come across a better finish I'll use it.
The Tits & Bum Jumper
would have been really childish.
would have been really childish.
Perhaps if I knew the name of the artist
or even the artworks title
I'd consider a name change....

ReplyDeleteWish I had the vision to re-invent my wardrobe.
Very nice indeed Jody! Looks a bit Michelangelo-ish to me, but I'm not an expert. How about Mike's Bits and Pieces!!?? lolol. Sorry, very sad humour I have! x
