WRAPS IN 30 MINUTES OR LESS

Today I decided to get a couple of wraps sewed so I can take them for show and tell at my sewing meeting next week. I have several pashminas so made the first one using one of them. It will be a nice warm wrap on chilly days and will go with about anything including jeans.

Front

Showing the front. Because it was finished on all four sides all I did was use my sewing machine and sew a fagoting (connecting) stitch along the top using black thread leaving a bit open at ends and of course the neck opening. 

Back

The next one I made using the front and back of a dress I never wear but love the hand painted pattern design

Dress

From this to  dress.................

Wrap

....................................to this wrap..

How fun is that. It is not finished as I want to burn the edges but first I need to try it out on a scrap. I think the organic look will work nicely.





I have another black dress I don't wear since we rarely have a reason to dress up so I am going to make a wrap from that one also. It is black sheer fabric with red flowers scattered around it. That one will come later.
