I love your sew along video so much that i Watch them just for the sake of it, before tackling the project, just to enjoy all the tips and suggestions that are in each. Then I rewatch before the project to check i have understood everything properly. Finally: i sew along and rewatch each tricky passage while swing.....I Think you are definitely the only one offering such a good Quality material on each single project!
I do the same. Watch a bit, sew a bit. Just started on the bodice and deciding which skirt to add to it. Was think Sabrina but not sure if pleats at top suit it and I need a straighter skirt with just darts
Finally after years of waiting another project with boning! This looks sooo flattering. I can’t wait to make this!
Is there another suggested elastic? I just find the clear elastic in ready to wear breaks down quickly and becomes scratchy and frail.
This is the type we tested it with, but definitely let the community know if you find something else that works well for you!
Fabulous! I've wanted this for....forever!
