Sweater with DIY Sequins Elbow Patches

You are here: Home / Accessories / Sweater with DIY Sequins Elbow Patches

October 12, 2012 By Rose Fine Crafts Leave a Comment

Sat on a bench. Read a book. Leaned over my shoulder and saw this: a sweater with DIY sequins elbow patches. Neat, heh?!

1,2,3 How-to

1. Cut out a round-cornered rectangle that is about the size of your hands (well, if you have long fingers…).

Seam allowance = 0

2. Put your sweater on and put a pin exactly where your elbow is.  Do this on both elbows.

3. Take your sweater back off and hand-sew on the elbow patches. The pins are to be the center of where your patches should be located.

So easy. Hardest part is: finding the sequins fabric.

 

So, Where to Get Sparkly Sequins Fabric?

Answer: Here, online!

Tip: Now, don’t worry about buying a whole yard. THE REST of your yard will come in so handy: as a top for a handmade cocktail, dinner or Christmas dress; as trimming for an other wise boring bag, as a hair band, a pillow, etc etc. Just browse our blog a little. With 1750 tutorials here, you are bound to find some that suit.
