      Oooooh Evelyn this is an amazing zero waste refashion masterppiece and it looks wonderful on you. I have had a too big ladies shirt hanging up in my wardrobe (same style as your men's) for several years and you have given me the inspiration and courage to attempt my very first refashion. Thank you! 🐾

      Sorry to hear about your dad. That's a hard loss. If you want another idea, Memory Quilts are lovely too. If the idea of "proper" quilting is a bit daunting Rag quilts are another favourite.

    This has been more fun than watching a University of Kentucky basketball game. Your video was the first half of the game. Your remake looks wonderful on you; and, your remake is a winner to me. That looks like another winner by Miss Matti. We can have two winners in this game, can't we? Now I need to watch the other half of the game (Miss Matti's remake).

    Evelyn! It turned out so good! 😍😍😍 I loved the cleaver little peplum / wing detail made from the collar and the cut-off sleeves! ❤️
    I totally understand this is one of your favorite re-fashions. I think mine is as well which is so funny as we both took on this challenge being a bit skeptical 😅

    • @Evelyn__Wood
      @Evelyn__Wood  3 года назад +6

      Hahaha yes! It was daunting at first, but having parameters to (follow ie use it all!) really makes you get creative and try new things. I will be making more stuffed applique from scraps in the future and I just love what you did you did with creating those pleats in line with the checks! 😍

  • @thebratqueen

    This is a very clever challenge. I like how you walked us through your design and thought process, and how you pointed out things like how zero waste meant working with a lot of rectangles. Sympathy on the messed up nail btw.

  • @carolg.6838
    @carolg.6838 3 года назад +15

    Amazing refashion design. The square stuffed buttons are so cute and clever to use the last bits. I imagined a rouched flower with a button center. It must be convenient to fit on a dress form that appears to be accurate to your shape. I like Matti's design very much too and look forward to her video.

    • @Evelyn__Wood
      @Evelyn__Wood  3 года назад +1

      Yes Carol a mannequin that is close to your size does help when designing to step back and look at it, I padded it up a very long time ago, and I think it is due for a re-size! I think you will like Miss Matti's video too! 😀
