My tablet wanted to change the “l”, in linky, to a “k”! 🙂

It’s very cute 🙂 It’s drying as I had to wash out the stabiliser I used for the hem. Yes I’ll get pictures up 🙂

I initially thought that too but the file is named “1201_pattern”. Not sure why. 🙂
I’ve finished the Jalie Bella dress, so small and cute!
Now I’m hemming a UFO for a gift but I’ve been fighting my coverstitch for these last 4 hems 🙁

I’m looking forward to this challenge as pretty much all my sewing for the next 2 months will be Christmas gift sewing, including Anna’s coronation dress, a 6 year old designed dress and lots of other presents 🙂

I’ve made the Mabel and Iris shorts. I haven’t made any top patterns. With the Mabel I used one waistband smaller but with the Iris shorts I redrafted the crotch curve and waistband.
