It's that time of the month again!
Yep, the sharing of the NewFOs with Cat Patches.
The first of mine is actually a finish
(oh amazing rarity for me):
Thank you Steam-a-Seam! |
First, let me say this:
I do not like garment sewing.
Nope, not even a little bit.
Garment sewing gives me great stress.
But I have persevered, and I finished 2 pairs of boxers for my great-nephews, who are big San Francisco Giants fans.
Did you realize that no one seems to make cotton SF Giants logo fabrics? Fleece, yes, but not cotton.
I hope they fit & that they like them.
Next, an actual start:
Yep, you're right, ANOTHER pair of boxers!
At least with this print, you won't be able to see the stitching if I wobble a bit.
They are actually a little farther along than this right now - I just have to do the waist band elastic casing & the fly.
The good part is that I have learned the basics of sewing with a serger. The bad part is cutting out the pattern with...scissors! Aren't those really just to snip threads with? Blerg.
That's it for me for August.

Stay cool!
