Tartan Tidy 2023

 Tartan Tidy 2023

 This was a quick off the cuff project.

 Tartan Waistband

 

Quite some time ago, I had to have a Tartan Skirt altered. I had the Waistband Removed and elastic put in. Being me, I had decided to keep the Waistband in case it came in useful.

 Remove Threads and Open

 

First, I had to Open up the Waistband and Remove all the loose Threads.

 Pin Tartan

 

I reversed the Tartan and Pinned in place ready to Sew.

Tartan Blanket

 

I used my favourite Stitch, Blanket and Sewed up the sides. I stopped Sewing roughly a quarter of the way from the End.

Blanket Buttonhole

 

I then turned my attention to the Buttonhole End. This area was quite frayed so I had to tidy up before sewing. Time for a break.
