Re: What are your summer sewing plans?
Good afternoon!
posted: 6:33 pm on May 24thI have this lovely floral sheer chiffon-type fabric which I'll line with ivory crepe into a tunic top (Stich 'n Save #M5911).
Then I ordered a 1944 dress pattern from Etsy. It's a shirtwaist dress with detailed scallops on the center front, and scallops on the sleeve cuff and collar - very cute. I bought navy blue with white polka dots (cotton/poly blend) for the dress. I am intimidated by this pattern, and if I haven't ever sewed before it would be daunting. I'll measure fiercly each pattern piece to make sure it matches my measurements.
Also, I bought Click 'n Sew CD so I can enter my exact measurements so I can print out my own patterns so the clothes fit! I'm also thinking of getting the Lutterloh system from Germany.
Thanks for listening! I'll post successes,mistakes, difficulties, etc. when done!
