I finally plucked up the courage to cut into my liberty and start my SewCieTea dress...
Following which there was hand basting...
Stitching & Top Stitching...
And after everything except hemming and hand stitching was done, I played with Tulle...
Oh, and my Iron died on Friday :( So on Saturday I went to buy a fancy new one...
So overall, a very successful weekend.
What about you? Did you have a good long weekend?
I wanted to start sewing my robson coat, but too many uni assignments... which are still on going =[ I hope your new iron performs well =]
ReplyDeleteoooh a robson coat? I love the pattern! What fabric have you got picked out?
DeleteGAH! I so can't wait to see your dress! And yay for new iron :D
ReplyDeletePretty, pretty, pretty! That fabric is gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteIt's been a great Easter weekend and glad to see you enjoyed quite a bit of sewing and I can't wait to see your dressed when it's finished. I had planned on doing quite a bit of sewing but hubby ended up having a couple of days off so I didn't get as much sewing as I'd hoped for. But I did take advantage of the opportunity of having hubby home and got him to wrap me in duct tape so I've finally got my new duct tape dress form completed which was unexpected. Plus I got started on a new top. So all in all I've had a great Easter weekend :)
ReplyDeleteWow ... it looks interesting... I like the print on the fabric. I am very curious about this dress. I hope you will post photos.
ReplyDeleteI've been doing some Easter sewing too. I love your fabric, and shall look forward to seeing the finished dress. :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, excited to see your dress, reckon it'll be a beaut (as Alf Stewart would say)
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness. that tulle. :)
ReplyDeletePretty tulle! Is that my crinoline you've made ? :P
ReplyDeleteGlad you have finally cut into your tulle:)
*sigh* I mean liberty. Fluffy tulle is on my mind.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely what easter weekend is for! Love the petticoat. I own like 4 but I still want more. You can never have too many. I can't wait to see your finished sewcietea
ReplyDeleteMy Easter was far too much cleaning and not enough sewing! Your dress is promising to be very special. Love the fabric.
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty, the fabric is divine. I can't wait to see the finished dress. I still have no idea what I am going to wear yet - I had better hurry up!
