My chair tore the skirt I made

I wore this skirt only once last year. I knew that the silver colour parts were weak. But I could not expect it breaks in the first day I wear. A chair's edge destroyed my pretty skirt.😭

|I could not give up this skirt. So, I did repairing between yesterday and today.

Removed silver parts and changed to grey Organdy fabric. 

Organdy fabric

The black colour underneath is a lining.

I could save this pretty one from the death.

i can not wear a T-shirt which has a company's logo

Don't you have an experience that a brand-new T- shirt but actually, cannot wear it because which is a novelty and has a big logo print on the chest?

I have one and modified it by myself.

Is it looks better?

Curry in Summer is somewhat nice. I cooked it for my lunch today. What did you eat for your lunch today? 

Thank you for coming. Good night, x

Washing Textiles

I have done the off stitches. And the fabric is being washing process now. General running hot water, washing liquid for wools and 2 tablespoons of salt is taken to the bucket. I repeated the process at least twice.

It was hung outside for one night to dry.

Ironing has all been done with every part. All cleaned and flattered. Making a shirt with this fabric should be good! 

I am thankful you coming to my blog again. Thank you and have a nice day⭐️

 

Old three wool jumpers reshaped, which become now one new jumper 2/2

 I bought those three jumpers 25 years ago. Everyone says that It's very long-lasting. I just love those and can not find fine quality these days instead of them. I will keep this for more years. 

That hole is repaired with a small piece of the same white fabric now. And a cross-stitch embroidery, dragon? (or the lion) is going to be at the repaired area. I hoped that the repaired area would be disappeared. 

Ohhh, good job embroidery!! No one likely notices that hole any longer.

Thank you for coming today too despite no updates for weeks. Hope you come here again and again.

Have a lovely day!

Old three jumpers reshaped, which become now one new jumper 1/2

 I have several clothes I can not trash. I decided to save three wool knit jumpers in those. They shrank and got smaller after my miss-washing.  

Those all parts are connected. And it becomes one jumper. I know you notice that one big hole in the chest. It needs repairing. So, I am thinking of the solution right now.

Open your closet and give it the second chance

You would have some garments you can not trash in your closet. Many people do, I think. You hope to wear it again but it has become old-fashioned. You recall this again and again when you look at it. Then, you again put it behind of your favourites.

The old-fashioned clothes deserve the second chance. In this quarantine, you can make time for sewing. How about change or remodelling?

This is what I made in two days. I think that I can wear this again as a skirt.

This skirt used to be a dress. A kind of safari designs. I never have seen anybody wear such design in Yokohama-city. I am not working at a zoo nor Animal planet (American TV channel). 😂

I did cut off and separated at the waist. And attached a zipper at left side. 

 

I recommend you to try. It is better than just trash it away even if it did not go well.
