Yes, I think @justsewit might be right. It’s difficult to tell from the photos, but you might want to try a swayback adjustment. Or maybe you just need to take in the hips more? It sort of looks like if you pin the hips, especially at the back, to be a little tighter you’ll eliminate the drag lines. It definitely doesn’t need to be looser–overall…[Read more]

There could be a a couple things here.

The name and the @ tag are not always the same. If I would try to send a message to @Tamara it wouldn’t get through to you because that’s your display name. I would need to address it to @justsewit because that’s your username. Could that be it?

The second thing it could be is something new–so it wouldn’t…[Read more]

I finally made myself a concord t shirt! And I have almost finished sewing a jalie jeans jacket.

@todd could you please help? I am trying to send a message privately in reply to one sent to me but it won’t send! I have been making attempts to do this for the past five months! I have successfully replied to other messages sent to me.

So I am wondering, is it length? Or something else?

Thanks in advancd

There is rumoured to be a new book
The cover, it has a good look

What did I do with my thread?
It’s normally kept by the bed
‘Cuz I stitch in my sleep
Embroidering sheep
Non-mulesed and organically fed.

@thesimpson5 I am pretty new to this fitting business but I find if my seams are on the outside they are easier to adjust.

I finished my jeans. I had a few issues with the back yoke fit but I have that sorted now (I think), and have cut a second pair.

@lesliegug would this help? http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2012/04/sketchbook-shirt-tutorial-part-1.html

@thesimpson5 I am very sure Liesl and some other ladies will chime in here. I had a good look at the photos and from what I can see is there are wirnkles that are not “it’s too tight” wrinkles but “there’s too much fabric” wrinkles on the skirt part of the back dress. They are pointing away but look baggy which says to me you need to take it up…[Read more]

Hi Jennifer I can confirm that French seams can be done on the side seams as I have done them myself. I did a 1/4 inch wrong sides together then trimmed to 1/8inch, pressed the seam and turned the whole side through to the inside pinned and stitched again using a 1/4 inch seam. The fact that the arm and body are intact should not make a difference…[Read more]
