Collar with Bib

Hi again!!  

Hope everyones well.  Please feel free to ask any questions.  So today’s DIY is super cute!! It is the perfect accessory to give an outfit some extra sugar on top.  

Inspiration:

Today’s DIY is inspired by the collar trend with a little added cuteness!  For this DIY I blended the collar trend with the classic tuxedo dickie, with the cute feminin twist of pink and embroidery details.  

What you’ll need:

  • Old shirt
  • Scissors
  • Pencil or fabric chalk
  • Sewing machine or needle and thread
  • Embroidery thread

What you’ll need to do:

  1. Pencil a curved line from where the shoulder meets the collar to the front 2 buttons down.  Then cut the line you drew and the back of the collar. 
  2. Fold the collar in half, matching the collar. 
  3. Use the previously cutout collar as a guide and draw a matching curved line.  Then cut.  Stich the raw edge of the bib part of your collar.  
  4. Create a design for your embroidery and stich to collar.

Tah Dahhh!!!  You’re done!!

Hope you like it!!
