Synopsis

1. Passage to India: Pieced and quilted silk strips create a jacket that blends yesterday and today. Hand made sequined elephant patches, called Kalaga, and delicate quilting make this jacket stunning.
2. Two for the Price of One: I cut my expensive ultra leather into jacket pattern pieces, then decided it was boring! Substituting faux hide for the bodice of one jacket, changing sleeves in the second, I ended up with two jackets!
3. Building a Framework: Decide which under-fabric will perfectly support your garment structure. From no interfacing to multiple layers of structure, your fabric and design features depend on the perfect foundation.
4. Altering Shoulders: Discover the ease of changing the width and the seam angles for a professional fit, prevent riding, remove puckers and pinching.
5. Up My Sleeve: Make sleeves fit your pattern properly by eliminating puckers, using sleeve heads properly, and inserting effective pads that can change with the changing tides of fashion.
6. Sleeve Plackets: If you want a cuff at the end of the sleeve, add the placket. Create designer plackets such as continuous lap, a simple hem, dart hem, and tailored. Template for the tailored placket included.
7. Seams Added and Padded: Your seams are more than utility, create design features using straight hem, curved hem, or Princess Line.
8. Platter Purses: That lovely serving platter has another use! Trace that server on paper and create clutch bags. Dozens of them for gifts. Keep a few for yourself! Because of their size, set your imagination free to decorate as you desire.
9. Upholstering Chair Seats: Replace those worn covers with ease. The hardest part is removing the old cover! Discover finishing techniques, cording, installation.
10. Twice As Nice: Presser feet are an important feature for stitching your garment, as darts, as decorative features. Discover twin needle stitching on hems, and the fun of circular pintucking.
11. Multi Media Refabrication: Combine strips of faux suede with wrinkled and stabilized fabrics to create an amazing bomber jacket.
12. Cutting Edge: Cutwork design makes your garment stand out in the crowd. Whether Irish cutwork, flowers, or leaves. Use a lovely fabric underneath or let a little skin peek through!
13. Opulent Outcasts: New uses for old treasures! Recycle scarves, add metallic threads and corresponding fabrics to come together and create an amazing jacket destined for a night on the town!
