made three more tonight... 2 have fleece sewn to one side... :shades:
And btw, I ordered a torso length uq shell from lost biker. But I still have about 10 oz of down left. I need to make a pillow once I understand the process.
John, how is the pillow.
Does the down compressed a lot since you only have two ounces in them. What is the starting dimension.
Thanks.
The starting dimensions are basically 8x11. I start with a rectangle 16x11 ish, with the outside in, and sew
around three sides. The fourth side I sew down from each corner about 1.5 inches.
In one corner, I put a tie out... before I sew the seam. -- don't forget this is inside out... the loop should be hiding when you sew it.
flip it right side out, and add the down. The fabric will want to tuck under on the seam since you started the seam in the corners... just pull tight and sew the edge. I will post pics tonight.
The way I make a pillow... Is I se three sides with it inside out out... I sew down 3/4 of the way on the last side with it still inside out... I then turn it right side out, I stuff and sew the last little bit up and making sure to overlap about an inch with the inside out seam and the outside out seam...
It's gotta be undies!
