Sewing a Simple Skirt

http://vimeo.com/26612612 Okay ladies. Here is the skirt we are going to be making. This tutorial is simple and easy to follow so I would love if you'd all watch it a couple of times before we get started. These are going to be fantastic!!!

Sewing Machine

Any of you out there looking for a great beginner machine should take a look at the Brother 6000i. Easy to set up and easy to use. I really LOVE that it will operate at a slower speed.

Welcome!!!

Bonjour Accessories Club!!!

I hope you have all been thinking up fun and crafty projects to share. In order to start creating right away, I am going to ask that you bring the following things…

A box (clear plastic is best and should be AROUND the size of a shoe box – a little bigger or smaller is okay too)

1 pair of scissors (not the little safety kind)

A mini glue gun and a pack of mini glue sticks

1 pack of sewing needles

1 pack of stick pins

At least one spool of thread

One pack of stick pins

$5 dollars for club supplies

Our first project…

No Sew Scarves

-         1 yard of fleece or any NON-FRAYING fabric (wool, felt, etc.)

The 8^th Grade and I are looking forward to some exciting projects!

Thank – you,

Madame

Oh, and here are three stores I know of where you can get supplies...

Michael's

Beverly Trimming shop on 5th avenue and 78th

J&A fabrics on 83rd? (I think) and Third Avenue

The first official accessories club project. Perfect because it is no-sew. We will be using the sewing machines eventually but I thought this would get us off on the right foot.

Supplies...scissors, fleece or felted wool. That's it!

I have seen these at a bunch of different craft fairs used as earrings etc. These in the picture are beautiful because of the bold colors. We can make these in accessories club with old magazines! Supplies... White glue, scissors, paper, and a straw.
