I realise its been a while since I have written a sewing blog. I have been sewing, lots of sewing, but lots of other stuff has also been going on so I am behind on the writing. I have been writing these posts in a linear fashion: I made this then I made this and then I made this. It is therefore very fitting that this blog post is a bit more timey-wimey as I have skipped to the now.
It was way back in April when I went along to the
Sew Different Sewing Retreat, whilst I was there I bought quite a bit of fabric and also a couple of other Sew Different sewing patterns.
I bought some lovely blue material which I thought would be perfect to make the
Biker Jacket Cardi from. I also knew I had some rather special material at home that I wanted to use for the lining.
The pattern itself is very straightforward: quick to cut out and quick to put together. The pattern itself suggests part-lining the jacket but I decided I would fully line.
I was very pleased with the result, this is the first garment I have fully piped around the edges. I did this carefully and I think I did a good job.
Yes it is exploding tardis lining - how cool is that! It just had to be done.
and......
........because it is fully lined
it is also reversible so if I want I can go full Doctor-Who geek.
I might be happier with this then is reasonable.
