WooHoo!!! Due to a crazy morning, both of my kids napped today from 2:30-5:45 (don't ask ... it was BAD) ...
Which meant I had time to clean off the dining room table and SEW!!!
I had already decided that my first project was going to be a pair of decoupaged jeans for Sheriff Shortstuff ... I found two really cute coordinating dinosaur fabrics on clearance at Walmart last week that I wanted to use ...
So I sat down, cut everything out (I'd already taken the seams out of the jeans and prepped them) ... pinned it all on ... and sat down at the machine
I just finished the jeans up about 6:30 ... threw them in the wash ... when they're dry I'll take a pic and post
But they looked pretty cute!!!
My two hangups were:
Deciding what color thread to use to zig zag around each piece
How to sew the legs back up after I'd zig zagged on all the fabric pieces (anyone have advice about that???)
Bolded by me!!
I sew a straight stitch where there was one before and then, since I do not have a serger, I do a zig zag stitch over the edge like it was serged.
I can't wait to see pics.
