Seam 2 Rip

This is the last group of bears I made for “VITAS”. I decided I needed to spend more time on my sewing gigs that paid.

I met Mike in Hayward today to discuss the hockey jerseys. We talked for about an hour, and I agreed to make a prototype using the info he had sent in a previous email. I would let him know when I finished, and we would meet again for delivery. He is ordering the fabric from Ebay, and having it shipped to me at home.

A minnie jersey!

How cute is this?

Got an email from a gentleman asking if I could make sequins jerseys for his hockey team. They were going to Vegas next March to play in a tournament, and needed something wild, and fun to wear. I answered, I had not sewn on sequins before, but I would be willing to try, and let him know how it goes. He agreed, and also sent a picture of a jersey with dimensions so I would have an idea of the scale I would be making.  I purchased a small amount of fabric, and made a small one. It turned out great! I sent a picture, and an email to Mike, and soon we made plans to meet, and chat about the project.

Used is now new.

Zipper lined up nicely!
