| One Seam Pants |
They're the One Seam pants from Louise Cutting One Seam Pants customized with her marvelous sizing instructions for Mr. Lucky.
And then I sewed up a pair of chocolate brown stretchy micro cord Style Arc Elle pants....just because I could.
You see, I was avoiding cutting out my winter coat and making that underlining decision. Yes, I needed some small successes to plunge me into the unknown....and it worked. I finished those two projects and that was enough to get me cutting and hand basting over the rest of the weekend. After all that dithering I decided on a third technique and underlined the coat pieces with silk organza. It's light but stable and crisp and I thought the cotton was just a little too soft.
I cut each pattern piece single layer to make sure I kept the herringbone tweed fabric straight and on grain.
I used embroidery needles with two strands of cotton embroidery thread to mark the pattern and silk thread to baste the silk organza in place.

I could possibly hold the title in avoidance productivity rofl.. not even just sewing but other things as well. One thing good about it ( I guess) is it all needs doing right? LOL Avoidance productivity is better than avoidance nothingness LOL ... Yep I will take that tee hee
ReplyDeleteAt least you're sewing something! I play on the computer while I "think it through"...sometimes for hours.
ReplyDeleteI think it gives you a satisfied good feeling of accomplishment to complete those unfinished projects. I am sure your husband was happy!
ReplyDeleteI have a major problem with project avoidance. Usually, I can return to the "problem project" easily if I finish one of my many UFOs. Mr. Lucky is lucky with his new pj bottoms! I like your Elle pants, too. The silk organza should work well. Happy coat sewing!
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, yes to project avoidance! My problem is that I often never return to the neglected project because I forgot what I was doing! Glad you got back to your coat -- it will be beautiful.
