It's Sew Easy TV SHow 1903: Accessorize With Scarves For All Seasons and a Classic Envelope Bag

10/3/2020

Every outfit needs the perfect accessory! This episode focuses on scarves and purses. 
Segment 1 - Scarves for All Seasons
Picture
I had a lot of fun preparing for this show! Scarves are an accessory I love to make and I love to wear! Watch as I show you how to sew, serge, gather, and couch your way to beautiful scarves suited for every season.
Picture
I started with a large soft scarf couched with a variegated yarn using the Brother MuVit foot. Then, I moved over to the serger and showed a sample of hemming for a chiffon scarf, followed by a three-thread finish for a lacy infinity scarf. Moving back to the machine, I added couching with a braiding foot, hemmed chiffon with a straight stitch and my favorite technique for a narrow hem, and gathered a strip for a ruffle on the chiffon scarf. This is the perfect way to extend the length of a scarf and add a fancy finish at the same time.
Picture
The show wrapped up with a re-cap of the techniques and ten tips for adding wardrobe pizazz with scarves and wraps. You'll find a download with all ten tips, plus links to instructions for several scarves HERE on the It's Sew Easy TV website.

If you're a scarf and wrap fan like me, you may want to take a peek at the projects included in my book titled Wrapped in Embroidery.

Segment 2 - Envelope Style Clutch Purse
Picture
Angela Wolf put together a simple handbag sewn from waxed canvas. This unique fabric is quite trendy. It's unlikely you'll find it in a big box fabric store but FabricFunhouse.com has a nice selection and some pretty colors to choose from.
Picture
You can consider making this from many different fabrics, adding a variety of embellishment techniques. 
Picture
Angela shows some ideas for the buttonhole closure stitched on the embroidery side of the machine. The menu shown above is from the Brother Stellarie she used on the show. In fact, these buttonhole patterns and the complimentary buttonhole embellishments are included with a variety of machine models.

Her completed purse is something you can whip up in an afternoon. What a great gift  this would make for a friend or family member!
I hope show 1903 inspired you to make some accessories! Visit www.itsseweasytv.com to watch this show. It currently airs until Noon EST on October 9th.

Hi Shirley! I'd like to help but I'm not sure what the issue is. If you go to http://www.itsseweasytv.com, should be able to watch the show just by clicking on the arrow located on the video image. However, they do recommend clicking on the link just below the show's description if you are watching on a mobile device. That link will instruct you to watch on Vimeo. Let me know if you are able to make it work, okay?

I have tried to locate a print out pattern for the envelope purse,
how can I find it? I have just watched the video on Iowa PBS on Saturday August 6,2022. I have checked everywhere I can think of. Thank you
