March/April 2014 Challenge: Sheers

Results of Brenda's sheer sewing challenge:

Brenda 

Brenda used McCalls 6467 and a pastel cotton for her blouse.

Cynthia


Cynthia made this elegant cowl neck top from a knit sheer fabric. 

Sue L.


From a distance this looks like it could be a large pair of panties or a slip,
 but its actually a bassinet cover made from the Mom's bridal gown.
What a sweet idea.


Katherine

I made this top from silk chiffon using Simplicity 1690. I'm not crazy about it.
 I'm afraid I might get voted off the island over it!

Sue B.


Sue's skirt is Vogue 7090

Kathy

The winner of this month's over achiever award!


Kathy did all of this sheer insertion on a regular (not embroidery) machine.
Amazing!


Kathy also made the scarf/necklace she's wearing. Neat idea.

Carol,  Jan and Marge are still working on theirs.

Update:


Marge's finished project for the March/April challenge:


Marge made an elegant shawl by needle felting fibers to
a silk home dec sample.




Update:


Carol's finished project for the March/April challenge:

Carol made this lovely feminine skirt with a sheer embroidered overlay.
