Reeni replied to the topic I need to make the prettiest flower girl dress ever! in the forum
Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years agoOn seeing the bride’s dress, would you consider doing a flutter-sleeve Library Dress with the front in a v? you could even finely pleat the fabric like the bride’s bodice if you have the patience, or do the dense-on-the-sides, less-in-the-middle flowers on the waist… like cut them out of the voile and re-embroider them overlapping on the band.

Wow, this took way too long! LOL
The dress is finished, it turned out lovely, and I blogged about it:
(disclaimer, my blog is very rough, nothing fancy, so be kind!

The verdict is, with some adjustments (number and positioning of pleats) it will turn out REALLY adorable on the final dress. 🙂Thanks all!!

Yes the collar ends are stitched into the shoulder seam. My daughter is making one and she did that step yesterday.

How exciting Jenni! Do we get to vote 🙂
I haven’t done much sewing at all in the last 2 weeks between, visitors, illness, camping and going back to work, but today is my first day off with nothing else to do. I can’t even do the shopping as my husband has the car 🙂 So I’m going to sew, probably for me! -

Laurie started the topic Help Peter pan collared and lined version in the forum liesl + co: bistro dress 11 years ago
Help. Not sure if I am missing something but it’s my second time making the bistro dress with a collar and lining. At what point do I stitch the shoulders of the dress and are the ends of the collar sewn into the shoulder seams? I remember this issue last time – about to stitch the lining and dress around the neck and the shoulders aren’t…[Read more]

Jill replied to the topic Zipper in the Nature Walk pullover collar? in the forum oliver + s: nature walk 11 years ago
Thank you! Great job on both. I found a link with some pretty good instructions that I will post in case anyone else wants to try this. I have just made a muslim, but so far it seems to be working. The zipper extends up into the collar. I have only had to rearrange a few of the steps in the pattern and alter the pattern slightly to make it…[Read more]

I’m doing what every crazy person does: I found out I’m one of 5 finalists in a nationwide sewing contest on Tuesday (had to submit 1-3 pictures of garment and a paragraph about said garment, and using a pattern from a provided selection) and so I promptly took my project almost completely apart and am obsessively and painstakingly putting it back…[Read more]

I’m so glad you like them! You’ll have plenty of time to sew for Easter, @justsewit. They are on their way from the printer as I type! We should have time in stock shortly.

It certainly can be challenging running from one end of the house to the other. But if you plan it out it can be doable – i love my slow cooker for that purpose!
I had to help cut out a dolphin pattern with Imogen the other day. She sat there and stitched it together by hand minus instructions. With no power I have had no chance to sew but hope…[Read more]
