Winter Sewing Inspiration
Posted by Deirdre Quirk on Oct 5th 2015
Fall is finally here! And that means it's time to start thinking about your winter wardrobe. Cozy sweaters, hats, scarves, flannel...not to mention the glitz and glam needed for all your holiday parties! For all you fashionistas out there looking to add to your closet with stylish pieces you've made yourself, we've rounded up some excellent sewing inspiration (plus tips!) to help you out.
Colorblock Sweater Makeover from DIY Wardrobe Makeovers
If you like this technique, make several and play around with where you place the colorblocks. How about contrast sweater cuffs, or a colorblock band under the bust, in the middle of the torso, or halfway down the sleeves? You could even experiment by combining three sweaters!
Jayleen Clutch from Boutique Bags
This clutch is simple but classy and modern. Make several, changing the fabric to work with simple jeans and a tee, formal wear, or a dress for a special evening (perfect for holiday parties). You could also omit the bow for a simpler style.
Hollywood Scarf from Just for You–Selfish Sewing with Your Favorite SewCanShe Bloggers
Be glamorous by making this scarf with soft rayon fabrics, or make it in cozy wool to keep you warm all winter. Make sure you pick a lining that you like, because it’s totally reversible.
What will you be sewing this winter?
