green_marthaSorry for spamming your f-lists, I had one post I forgot to post yesterday (the one about th ePillow flower), then the 1/8 inch epiphany, and then, today'x actual sewing content !
Silly geek ^^ The rest is here.
I'm very pleased with myself (and the pattern) so far (BTW, using the LM Frock coat and vest pattern). The alteratiosn were minor and took about 5 minutes to make, and were all were I supposed they would be (size 42 at the waist, but 38 to 40 at the torso... things like that). I was pleased to discover the length was just right (note to self : when making this for my sister's home geek, maker the pattern pieces 3 to 5 inches longer at least !). I expect some fiddling with the front closure but nothing really frightening.
I've been cutting some pieces and zigzagging the edges for the Pillow Flower, too. The sewing together and rest of the muslining work will wait, I'm tired and I want to read.
I'm feeling rather confident about my sewing abilities right now. This isn't normal, I'll probably face some big disaster when I go back to Demeter...
