M is for Miscellany

Miscellany Scarf

Today I had my boys home with me... and while, for the most part, that means I can't get much work done, we do find that if we congregate in the basement with some sort of creative activity of our own, we can have a splendid and productive time together!

So, I made this skinny scarf that I saw on Sew 4 Home today. I made some alterations for my own version... vintage goldish ric rac in place of pom-poms, no layer of batting as I wanted to keep it as light as possible, and I didn't seem to need topstitching, so I didn't add that either. What attracted me most to the project (besides being a pretty easy one) was that it used 8 prints- and that's just what Miscellany has!- so it was an easy-peasy and perfect way to highlight all 8 of them.

While I was sewing, I remembered Daisy Janie also had a skinny scarf tute - the Boho Chic Scarf - which would also be cool in these fabrics... (but I might try to squeeze some of the fab gold ric rac in there, too!).
