Some actual sewing
Aug. 23rd, 2015 11:36 pmAttempting to get things ready to sell apparently makes for a very boring LJ - also I need to get up a bit earlier so I can have more sewing time. But I'm addicted to the snooze button. :P We shall do better this week!
Today I was determined to Sew For Me (after finishing more stupid alterations. This is IT, I am DONE, I am MAKING HATS NOW), so I dug up my sleeve pattern from the shell-print jacket I made a few months ago. Covered in a few months' worth of dust, probably. And several other pattern pieces. I really need to clean those up... This sleeve is a nice below-the elbow, that should fit on this dress. Should.
And I wanted to save the yard-plus that I have left in one piece for trim, so one sleeve is pieced with two pieces, the other with three. At least the sleeve lining was not pieced this time. One sleeve is sewn and pinned in, now I'm working on the other. Also finished the CF and neckline. And we should be at an "interesting enough to take pictures" point tomorrow, which is good. Everybody likes picture posts better!
