So I’m a bit late to the Minoru sewalong as I’ve only just started cutting out my pieces today.
I had hoped to cut out all the fabric pieces, but unfortunately my main fabric is a bit wrinkly from the wash and I just realized that my iron’s electrical cord was chewed on by the pup. Here’s a glimpse of the fabric I’m using though:
I’ll be going to get a new iron later this evening, and hope to cut out the pieces tomorrow! My zippers have shipped so I’ll also be learning how to shorten a zipper soon. Otherwise, this jacket looks like something I can handle. The weather today reached a balmy 1 degree ABOVE celcius, which is a sign that I’ll be needing a spring jacket soon! (But considering this is Ottawa and only the beginning of February, it won’t be too soon!)
Ummm… LOVE the idea of using a clothing rack to hold cut pattern pieces. You can see everything that you have and nothing will get wrinkled. Brilliant!
Thank you! Believe it or not, it was my boyfriend’s idea and he doesn’t even know anything about sewing!
