Anyway, she fell asleep in my arms after some time, and she's in bed now, warm and comfortable. Hopefully, her fever will ease a little.
Meanwhile, I wanted to share another refashion with you. I'm on a refashion kick right now.
Unfortunately, I failed to take a good 'before' picture. Boo.
Nevertheless, it's the same blue and orange shirt from the last refashion.
I had already used part of the orange sleeves for the black shirt transformation, but was left with a blue/orange shirt that had potential.
How the shirt was refashioned.
(I took some pictures, but something was wrong with my camera, so they did not turn out - sorry)
1)Using a seam ripper, I detached the orange sleeves from the blue bodice piece, leaving it still connected to the collar.
2)Next, I used a sharp scissors and cut off the sleeves from the collar.
3)Next, I finished the armhole seams to make it look nicer. I think leaving it unfinished works too.
4)Try on the top, and if it gapes at the armhole, pin and sew the sides.
Actually, if the top is too loose, make sure you pin and sew the sides so that the top is quite fitted. You don't want to be conscious of slipping shirts when you are doing forward bends
You're pretty much done.
I had excess orange fabric leftover, so I added some decorations. It's freehand sewing. A little more risky than freehand drawing.
Oh, I pretty much use the same method of rose embellishment that Jessica of Happy Together used in her tutorial. Except, I skipped the pinning part.
It's a pretty fun yoga top to wear.
Here's the before photo:
Sometimes, I get asked how I feel about wearing home made stuff to teach yoga classes where most of my students are Lululemon clad.
I say, "If they are willing to invest that much on good yoga wear, they are committed to their yoga practice. I am always, always, thankful for all my yoga students. "
If I am not able to make my own yoga wear, I'd be wearing Lululemon too, because I hear they make some very good quality stuff.
Oops, I've got to stop right here, my sick girl is stirring.
I hope you like that quick refashion!

Hope the little girl is feeling better now. I might have to try this tute one of these days. I could always use a new tank top. :)
This seems too easy!
Hi,
Yoga is beneficial for the health in ways that modern science is just beginning to understand. Even though it has beenapplied with therapeutic intention for thousand of years, Yoga Therapy is only just now emerging as a discipline initself.
More health care practitioners are starting to include yogic techniques in their approach to healing -- andmore yoga teachers give a therapeutic intention to their teaching. People who have never tried yoga before are startingto consider including Yoga in their treatment plan.
As science begins to document the importance of understanding the interrelation of all existing things, it looks to Yogawith an intrigued eye, for Yoga speaks Unity in every word. As yoga techniques are researched and new data is gathered,it becomes easier for science and the medical establishment to understand and accept the benefits of Yoga Therapy.Yet there is still not one consensual definition of the discipline.
In order to arrive to an adequate definition and tocome up with proper standards for Yoga Therapy, it is crucial at this early stage to properly address some delicateprofessional and ethical issues. At the same time it is important to educatethegeneralpublic about Yoga Therapy'sbenefits and careful use.
so this article will really helpful to me..
