Fiona Duthie has posted a free tutorial on her blog which looks fabulous. It reminds me of some of Ruth's posts because she uses layout to achieve differential shrinkage and thus shaping. I think I will have to try and make one.

It'll be interesting to follow your progress with that Pamster - quite an undertaking!

I had a go at this and thought that you might like to see the result. Although I'm not usually a poncho wearer, I'm really pleased with it and plan to make another at some point. It wasn't very difficult, the main problems I had were not having a big enough table to do the layout on and finding enough time to do it.

It is a big project - in workspace, time and energy.
So well done on making a very pretty poncho Jane! I like your surface design and the colours you chose.

Looks great Jane, glad you enjoyed the tutorial and the outcome. I hope to have one to share before too much longer.

Great job, that is always the problem with clothing, I don't have a big enough space to lay it out and it's fiddly trying to layout and roll up as you go. Congrats on persevering!

I finally found time to make a poncho, made some mistakes but learned lots in the process and I will actually wear this

It turned out really well. I like the nuno pieces.
