VLOG 220 Behind the Scenes with Angela Wolf – Rachel Twin Set sew-a-long ~ Part 4
Today I walk you thru cutting a double collar, adding a touch of yellow to the coral twin-set. This is not part of the pattern, but you know I LOVE patternhacks! Adding yellow to the collar will tie into the tank top, which you will see more about next week.
Working on the tank top, you will find a tutorial on choosing size and adding a full bust adjustment.

Do you find yourself sewing a lot of knits? If so, you will eventually want to add a coverstitch machine to your sewing room. Hemming knits has never been easier!
But the Coverstitch is not just for knits, you can also do a chainstitch which is great for finishing seams and decorative stitching.
Join my next online / virtual class in the serger sequel Serger/Coverstitch 103 ~ Learn to Use Your Coverstitch Machine! Although we are focusing on serging in these classes, many sergers include a coverstitch combo, so I wanted one class to focus on just coverstitching.
