I still need to hem it and finish the embellishment. I sewed free motion embroidery wings on the back and a swirl on each sleeve near the wrist. Tomorrow I’m planning on doing a larger swirl mirror…[Read more]

I figured it out. I’m still not sure what went wrong but I ended up having to trim the arm hole by a half inch where it connected on the side.

Despite nothing saying so on their website, Hancock was closed for Easter Sunday, so we will go tomorrow instead. I’ve spent the afternoon dozing on the couch while Audrey…[Read more]
