Winter Cold
After the wedding it is back to the cold weather and skiing in Vermont. I made a Faux Fur Hoodie Jacket, lined in a gold and bronze satin, with a purse to match.
The fur was quite easy with which to work. I simply used a very narrow, short zigzag stitch over the edges of the seam. Do NOT iron this fabric. It melts!! I just finger pressed the seam from the fur side and brushed (with my fingers) the fur over the seam. I inset pockets into the side seams.
The faux fur was purchased from Donna Salyer Fabulous Furs in Covington, Kentucky. She has several different furs, and I have worked with many of them. I will share the other photos as we advance with this blog.
The jacket is very warm, and everyone loves it.
I trimmed the purse in faux leather.
