120 T-Shirt Sleeves!!!
Comments (5)thanks Huggy. I will check with the local hospital and shelter and see what they want and need. My quilt guild donates Linus quilts to local organizations can link up with them. Noinwi...Duh...I have always wondered about "rib knit" when I see patterns calling for a wrist or ankle cuff. Wondered where to find. Now I have about 120 of them...I am set. Gonna have a new grandbaby myself soon and can use some for her. Thanks for the great tip. Murphy...See MoreShirt Hemming
Comments (9)If you can find a set of the old attachments which came with some of the vintage sewing machines there were several different hemming attachments in the sets. I have a hemming attachment which can turn under a 1/8" rolled hem and sew it down in one procedure about as fast as fabric can be fed into the machine. There are different widths available from the really narrow 1/8" hem up to about an inch and a half hem. Saves tons of pinning! One set of these attachments is from my Singer treadle sewing machine and the other more complete set is from my White Rotary Treadle so if you can't find these attachments at a sewing center, perhaps an antique store would have them, they are worth looking for. Occasionally they will show up at garage sales or rummage sales and many times folks don't know what they do so they will let you have the whole set for fifty cents or so....See MoreDark Cherry Kitchen...can it still be fun,light & casual?
Comments (20)DO THE CREAM FRENCH COUNTRY ISLAND LOOK, DO THE CREAM ISLAND!! I cannot repeat enough ahhahah. I could have written your opening page and for a minute I wondered if it was me talking ahhaha. We just completed our custom build. Kitchen designer talked me out of cream kitchen with cherry island (gut now says wish I had gone that route) it is such a light and bright feel all around. We did cherry cabs with chocolate glaze and although they are rich, elegant and beautiful they match the wood floor dead on too- it is rather dark at times. We almost went with a black island and I think it would have felt soooo cave like although I do love black islands, not with dark cherry cabs (sorry everyone) and a wood floor - too dark. I wanted to do a french country island and again KD discouraged me as my island is very small and literally talked me into the same island cab as the surrounding and I would have sooo much loved the cream island better. Moral - trust your instinct and ignore these persuasive kitchen deisgners who say "trust me on this one, do....". It is YOUR kitchen and noone elses. We did Giallo Ornamental granite and I LOVE it for lightening everything up with the Wow factor but if I were to do it over I would either definitley do the french country island hands down or do the reverse of all of it ( cream surrounds with dark island). Other poster is right, although my wood maple floor is beautful I am a SLAVE to it and would NEVER do it again that dark as every dog paw print shows as does every crumb or juice spill that my 3 young boys spill on it. I can even see if the dog leaves a water drool on it..UGH > I literally clean them EVERY SINGLE DAY and could vacuum twice a day. NEVER AGAIN! Hope that helps and good luck during this stressful but exciting time....See MoreDoes anyone know where to find "no collar" loose long sleve shirts men
Comments (16)Wertach, keep looking at all thrift stores. Some are better than others. You might also ask on FreeCycle. Cut the collar off above the collar stand. If fraying, you can use zig zag stitch. (Get a decent used sewing machine ;) ) Here are some links that might be helpful. What you seem to want is a Henley or Nehru style collar. He lets can be made looser and in cotton broadcloth or linen instead of the traditional knit fabric. Note the link for the Civil War period costume shirt. Perhaps you can find someone to sew you up a few or you can learn. I take it that you're not aiming for Brooks Brothers.
