My Fall Cardigan using McCall's 6996

Happy Monday Everyone,  I made this quick and easy cardigan using McCall's 6996, view A, I  like how quick it was I just finishing  cutting  another,  it is also a great wardrobe  builder. The fabric I use was kind of a neoprene  with insulation, I  found  at my local fabric store for $3 a yard. The only change I would make to this pattern is to cut the sleeves one size smaller. This pattern is great for beginners.Happy Sewing!!

My First Coat made with Vogue 8933

Happy Tuesday  Everyone,  I'm super excited  made my first Coat using Vogue 8933,  view B..it was easy.The problems  I have was that the sleeves fit a bit tight, I cut a size 14 but I would definitely  go up a size. (2) The fabric was wool blend, next time I will definitely  use pure wool (3) stiffer  interfacing  was needed for the coat otherwise  I really love the way it turn out and will be making a shorter version  next time. I recommend  this  for anyone who  wants  to try making coats to give it a try...Happy Sewing!!!
