Wonderful work and such a good idea to use up small scraps. -- Beverlyhttp://ickes.us/default.aspx I looked over your site, that is a stunning blue/green top shown on the first page of your recent projects. Thanks, that was a fun project and I have worn the jacket several times. I have to make a set of Tai- chi outfits for my wife and myself, and that reminds me of the top with Frog Buttons. I better get busy on them now that I have gotten some inspiration. John I wasn't going for authentic Asian style, I just liked that pattern because, while it had some shaping, it didn't have lots of seams breaking up the print. I competed another jacket using the same pattern, in Glen plaid printed silk in shades of ivory and navy blue. Pictures eventually... -- Beverlyhttp://ickes.us/default.aspx Not that it looks Authentic Asian Style. I just noticed the loop construction of the closures, and that is the same style of closure as used on Tai-Chi clothing, but theirs is over lapping, with that style of loop, but with a knotted element in the anchor point, and that is on my honey do list. Perhaps this will get you started: http://www.sewingconnection.com/sc10ball.htm And, seriously, making the narrow tubing with Claire Shaeffer's method (demonstrated on my site) works wonderfully well. You can produce extremely narrow, very strong tubing. It was a quiet prod to myself, to get going on my list of things that must be done soon. John Yeah, I need one of those prods myself... -- Beverly http://ickes.us/default.aspx |
