Some of you may know that in addition to writing this blog, I am also co-owner of another blog, SewingBusiness.com which I write with my daughter.

We try to pass along interesting information about the business of sewing, website reviews and interviews of those blog / website owners who we feel would be an inspiration to our readers.

Today, however, I would like to blow my own horn a little -- I've done a "How To Make A Reversable Collar" tutorial for our sewing business blog, and I want to pass it along to you.  This collar can be worn three ways - it's reversable, plus can be made into a bow collar.

Here's a picture of the "bow" collar -- you'll need to run over to the blog to get the step by step instructions on how to make it "custom" for your size and for the basic pattern that you'll be using to make the collar.



The collar can be made out of some of the scraps you have, or head on down to your fabric store and get 1/3 yard of a nice print fabric and 1/3 yard of a co-ordinating solid fabric. 

Once you've made this collar, you may want to visit PatternsThatFitYou.com to check out a variety of additional collar patterns that you can make to go on your basic blouse or dress.
