Sewing Room Organization Part 1-Crates and Soda Carriers

I am going to be showing how I organized my sewing room. I will start with this wall. The crate is covered up by marvel heroes fabric. I hated that thing without it but it was the only thing that could hold my albums.

Halloween Costumes Toy Story's Woody and Jessie Part 2

Here is the start of Woody's shirt. I bought a very light yellow shirt at Goodwill. I started marking the lines with a ruler and sharpie. I ended up dying this in Rit Dye color lemon yellow to get it a lot darker.

I used a t-shirt to outline my vest. I had to cut the back part twice. I had to measure it on my son a few times to get the right fit. I lined the vest with black flannel and used a black and white trim around the vest.

This is how it looks so far. I bought the bandana at JoAnn Fabrics for 50% off.

I made the holster out of felt. It wasn't too hard.

I made button holes on the back so the belt can go through.

I used one of those ceiling stars my son had so make the sheriff star. I just painted it and used fabric puff paint for the writing. I glued on those pin back like this.

I have more to show you  including Jessie's costume.

Halloween Costumes Toy Story's Woody and Jessie Part 1

These are the costumes I am working on. I am making these for my son and his girlfriend. I have the shirts, jeans, fabric, trim and even the hats. I'll be starting on them very soon and will post the progress.

With Woody-I need to make his vest and draw the lines on his shirt. I've also need to make the sheriff star. I don't know what I'll do about the boots-perhaps he can borrow some from someone.

 

 

With Jessie-I need to put the cow fabric on a pair of old jeans. I need to make the cuffs and collar. I've also need to paint her cowboy hat red and do the trim around the hat.

There used to be a pattern for this but that was a few years ago and now  it is impossible to find and if you do find it , the price is about 50.00 dollars or more.
