Industrial sewing machine



The Fashion school I was studying at had some industrial sewing machines for sale at dirt cheap prices . I couldn't resist but snap one up. Believe me, once you've gotten use to an industrial sewing machine anything else is not worth using.

Jacket: completed and assessed


Here is my completed women's jacket I was making a few weeks back at fashion school.  You'll notice there are no buttons. This is for three reasons.

1. It wasn't a requirement.
2. We weren't taught how to make buttonholes.
3. Buttonholes had to be professionally made for the course.

By the way, I have finally finished my year long course! Woo hoo!
