Project Re-Style #19

Happy Monday Everyone!  
I hope your Sunday and Mothers day 
was as wonderful as mine was.
Today marks 19 weeks into my Project Re-style challenge, and for me, the weeks are flying by.  I had a totally different project in store for this week, but I changed my mind at the last minute. I am Re-styling a sweater that is too big, and has never fit me quite right, but I love the color.
All the details about Project Re-Style will be at the end of this post. And as always if you have any questions please email me.

Tutorial
Things you need
1.Old sweater
2. Cord or ribbon about 2 yards
3. Large safety pin
4. If you want to do the detail on the shoulder, I used about 6 feet  of one inch wide ribbon, and about 2 feet of 1/4 inch wide ribbon.
5. Sewing Machine
6.Thread to match
7. Scissors













Gather up the cord






That is all there is to it!  
A super easy sweater shrug!


19 down 33 to go

 Have a wonderful Day Everyone!
Go Re-Style something.

    The ribbon def has that feathery feel to it with the little pieces coming out! I heart it! This would be fun to wear AND to wrap a gift with! 2-for! =)

    Seriously, where do you get your ideas from!?!? AMAZING. I would buy this for sure if I saw it in a shop :) Love the ribbons too, they would be nice on a blazer also.

    I have a bag of old sweaters that just don't fit well anymore that I was going to give to goodwill, but I think a few of them will be brought back to life! Thanks for such a cute idea!!

    Do you have to worry about the sweater unraveling? Or does the seam take care of that?
