The weather is beginning to warm up, so I decided to make a put-on-and-go dress with one of the pieces of
material I bought the other day. The fabric is rather flimsy, so I lined the dress. Years ago I met a lady called Bettica who said that she lines every garment she makes because it's quicker and easier than neatening seams. I wouldn't go so far, but she does have a point - lining a dress is not as difficult or time consuming as one might think. The fabric is 'mock newsprint', so if I run out of reading matter I could always sit down and read it!
It looks beautiful! - you do so much, sewing knitting, spinning, hardanger, embroidery AND tatting - it's always fun to visit your blog.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen a mention of crochet yet.....or have I?
I have been learning tunisian crochet! I can crochet, but don't do it much.
