For a recent chalet themed holiday party, I went full out (or should I say full Swiss Miss) and made myself a fur vest and boot covers. I had just a small piece of fur left over from the vest and thankfully it was just enough to make boot covers. They were super easy to make as they are essentially just a tube with elastic at the top to cinch it to your leg.
The pleated skirt is one of my all time favorite things to make. It's basically just a rectangle with lots of folds (aka pleats) attached to a waistband. I've shared a tutorial for making a pleated skirt before but I thought I would take it one step farther and show you how to make one with a button band in the front. You don't need a pattern and I've done all the math for you. Read on and find out how to make one yourself.
Today I have a super easy tutorial that you can use on your handmade and RTW dresses or tops. So what is a lingerie strap? It's a little strap on the inside shoulder that will hold your bra strap to your top. It will keep both your bra strap and your top or dress on your shoulder, preventing your undergarments from being exposed. So if you have a garment that tends to drift, this quick and easy upgrade is for you. Plus, this is a perfect project for when you only have 15 minutes to spare.
