This project was somewhat of an experiment. My daughter wanted a shrug and I decided to try my hand at it. This was done totally without a pattern. It took my only a day. This was done in TLC Amore - Sand #3005.
Your work is just beautiful - your daughter just has to be thrilled and the envy of many friends! The stitch you chose is so pretty and the back of your shrug is just as attractive as its front.
Just wanted you to know that I just absolutely love the shrug you made. I have been looking for one exactly like it. You said you made it without a pattern; do you have it written down now???? I would absolutely love to make one for myself.
Welcome to my DIY Style blog! How many times have you seen clothes in an upscale department store or a posh boutique and cringed at the sight of the price tag? I've done it many times and have said to myself, "I could make that"! While reading my fashion sewing blog, you'll share with me in my adventures in taking "boring" patterns from drab to fab by creating "inspired" looks pulled straight from those boutiques, the runway and fashion magazines. Also my adventure in learning to tailor and couture sewing techniques.
wow, that looks great!
