a few stitches wow gold YL

a few stitches

Now the fashion world has wow gold caught up with Chanin -- just check out the homespun, DIY aesthetic at Rodarte and the other fall runways right now. Chanin includes fold-out patterns, detachable stencils, even her son's favorite biscuit recipe. Yet for all its folksy charm, "Alabama Stitch Book" is both on-point, filled with guild wars 2 gold practical guides and easy-to-read instructions, and surprisingly sophisticated.

Chanin's designs-- based on recycled T-shirts and organic cotton, featuring leaf and flower stencils -- are tremendously suited to home sewers with creative impulses. All it takes is a drawer of old T-shirts or a set of ordinary white sheets, a trip to the craft store and the artistic license of Chanin's book to create something truly beautiful.

And Chanin's designs are as much fun to make as they are to wear. They're a lot like a kids' art project wow po -- if your kids love "Project Runway" as much as mine do.

The techniques and patterns are forgiving. Those not handy with a needle guild wars 2 gold and thread can simply stencil a pattern onto a T-shirt and stop there, or wow gear maybe add a vertical line of cursive script with a Sharpie. Beginning sewers can tackle an easy reverse appliqu while the more advanced can stencil and appliqu a more intricate pattern.

Chanin is practical, economical, inventive -- and inspiring. Who knew you could do so much with old cotton jersey, paint and a Sharpie? (And who knew that's about all you need to make one of the gorgeous Alabama Chanin shirts that go for $150 at Barneys?)

I'd never stenciled before, but after spending a few days with her book, I was transferring stencils up the sides of my daughter's jeans, sewing leaves and cutting out roses and writing cursive lines of Shakespeare on her T-shirts
