Well I'm here again to show you something else that I've made using a pin as the inspiration. I've made no-bake cookies, taco soup and taquitos, custom art for our guest bedroom, lace shorts, and the most recent hummingbird clutch.
Exhibit A: The Ultimate Goal: sold for over $44
Exhibit B: The Tutorial and Sample: from Put Up Your Dukes
And finally....
Exhibit C: My Take
Used:
Two tees from Goodwill: around $8
Thread, scissors, and sewing machine
Time in my craft room one evening listening to my James Taylor station on Pandora
I love the way that this turned out. I specifically bought tees in colors that were fall-ish and could coordinate with my wardrobe the most. Isn't it the worst when you buy or make something that you have nothing to wear it with? Maybe that's just me. In hindsight I would actually buy some jersey fabric to make another one because the shirts I used didn't give quite the 60" length that fabric would have. I love the way that this scarf sits but it would be nice to have another that I can wear doubled.
It's a little hard to tell because the next picture was taken on my phone in the evening (with only big over-head lights) but the scarf coordinates perfectly with an army-green colored jacket that I've started wearing a lot lately. I wore it when J, Ollie and I walked to the park and watched some softball one evening this week.
Thank you Pinterest for giving me something else fabulous!
This is definitely on my list of things I want to make! Its super cute!
