The pattern’s done! It’s $5 and available as a downloadable PDF.
The downloadable part of that statement appears to be working. If you’ve implemented that functionality on your website you’ll be familiar with my reserved confidence. Let’s just hope I didn’t break too many other things along the way.
I had five awesome testers:
- Michelle Greeting Arts
- Jennifer Downstairs Designs
- Kelly Whatever is Lovely
- Kim A Peach in Stitches
- Nicolette devliegendekoe
Once again, these gals sent the pattern over the top. They all did the job in the 24 hour turn around, absolutely amazing. They’re collectively responsible for inspiring Sewing School. A section at the end of the pattern that includes tips and tricks for beginning sewers and open minded old dogs.
My biggest thrill was seeing the images of everyone’s scarf. All different, all fabulous, all made in a couple of hours. Experienced sewers and new. Thank you all! I’m genuinely touched by the generosity and professionalism of bloggy friends that agree to test my patterns. You’re truly a special group of women.
I’m glad to have the pattern out in time for gift making. Time for me to get back to mine…
11/13/07 update with links to tester scarves: Nicolette, Michelle, Kelly, and Kim.
It came out wonderfully!!!! I love it!
How wonderful to see you wearing the scarf! I had so much fun testing the pattern and making the scarf, it was a wonderful distraction between all my other projects and work. Thanks again!
are you going to post their scarves, too? i’d love to see them!
So cool! I just spent the entire day trying to come up with a scarf design. I should just have waited for you.
This is giving me the best idea for a gift for my sister. I think I should just give you access to my paypal account…
Yay, i love that I can just sort of putter through it, limited brain power, you know! Lovely as always Kathy!
Ooh, pretty.
Must consider my giftee list and might be back for the pattern
you’re a star! *-*
giftmaking will be so quick & fun this year – thanks!
I love it! and you used a great combination of fabrics in the one in the photos.
Hello! My first visit here! I saw Nicolette’s fabulous scraf after your pattern, and had to come over and view yours, Kathy. Your scarf is gorgeous! I love the playof color, patterns and textures! And it looks great on you! Happy Day

think it turned out great and the pattern was fab! thanks!
already cutting my next color scheme!
Oh my, I didn’t even think to send you a picture! I already gave it away but maybe I can still hunt it down- the recipient LOVED it! And I loved mixing in some of my silks I have been hoarding, but I had wanted to follow your instructions to the letter and it turned out great! Thanks for letting me participate!
Ooh, thanks so much! It’s the perfect gift for the teachers this year!!
Very pretty!
What a wonderful scarf! As soon as I finish writing this comment, I’ll be downloading it. The hard part will be figuring out which materials in my stash to use! Of course, it’s a tempting excuse to go find some new gorgeous silks or linens or brocades or…I could go on…
i love the scarf it looks great
Thanks for letting me test the pattern. Anytime you need a tester again, just let me know, I will be happy to test your patterns.
still love this version, no need for a new one. but if you do, don’t forget about the pink (as it’s wonderful in this one)!
