I still have a lot of work to complete in this section of my webpage. So I have decided to enlist the help of others to speed up the process a bit and to bring in some new ideas.
Basically, I am looking for clothing and craft related projects....
About Clothing DIY:
I am looking for people who are willing to donate pics and info for the Clothing Tutorials. You can either:
- make something completely from scratch
- alter an existing article of clothing
I will set up the tutorial page....so don't worry, you needn't have to design part of a webpage! Simply submit pictures of you DIY project with a descriptive run-down of how you did it. You may also want to include pictures of the different steps or some diagrams showing how everything was pieced together. The easier it is to follow, the better....keep in mind...there are people who will be reading this section that don't know how to hem a skirt or make a stencil or apply velcro! So try to go into as much detail as possible.
Please be sure that all pics submitted are clear and
of decent quality.
Contact me if you have any questions.
Check out some of the webpages I listed below to get an idea of what
different tutorials look like. These are just to give you a basic example of
what I'm looking for:
Pillowcase into Skirt Tutorial - lots of pics...great descriptions!
Corset Top from Band
Shirt - simple tutorial with a couple pics
Circle Skirt Tutorial
- good example of how diagrams can work just as well as pics
Full Skirt -
another great tutorial with diagrams
Various Tutorials - You will have to log on and join this group to view
Please include all text and image files in one e-mail
if possible.

What YOU get:
Since I pay for SqueakMachine.com out of my own pocket, I can not
compensate you for your effort and donation with money. However, if your
tutorial is accepted you will be given full credit. I plan to create a brief
little "bio" at the bottom of each accepted tutorial page. It will introduce
you to the world and give you a chance to put up your contact info or
webpage info. Promote your store, modeling page, Ebay seller account,
personal page, whatever! It is free advertising!
If your tutorial is accepted, I will contact you in greater detail about
your bio.
