A Comfy Candy Christmas 2019 Part 6

A Comfy Candy Christmas 2019 Part 6

The next part of making the Cover is adding the Press Studs

Add Press Studs












I started at where the Top of the Cover will be. I Sewed the Right Hand Press Stud part on first (Photograph Facing). I then added the Left Hand part on the other side. There is a reason for this which I will explain later.

Press Stud Mistake
 










Another mistake due to not paying attention. When Sewing the Press Stud in place I went through both parts of the material. I had to unpick and redo.

Triple Press Studs











I have now Sewn three of the Right Hand Side Press Stud Parts onto the material. The reason I am doing it this way is if you look at the above photograph you can clearly see the slope.

This meant that the other side could not be in a straight line. The further down the other side of the material I went the more to the Left I had to place the rest of the Press Studs.

End of Slip Cover









I have now all the Press Stud Parts Sewn on to the material. Next I have to deal with the End of the Slip Cover.

Fold Canvas Bottom









I have quite a bit of material left at the Bottom. I either could cut off and Re-hem or try to Fold the material to make it smaller. I decided on the latter approach.

I pushed the Sides in towards the Centre. This is a bit like wrapping a present.

Sew Fold Together
 








I then Sewed the Fold together.

Sew Bottom Edge
 







After I Sewed the two pieces together I Folded the remaining Edges together and Sewed those making a nice Flat Edge Bottom.

Lollipop Finished











The Lollipop is now finished and it needs to be wrapped in time for giving for Yule.
