HOLY MOLY that's a TON of stuff to have sewn!
And I thought I was busy!
are you sure it's paper? could it be like tyvek (the type of material used for mailers)?
I think it's fine to use it, so long as you make sure that it's on something detachable so it doesn't go through the wash.
I was going to say the same thing...It may also be a plastic covered paper.
Yes I am busy, but I must admit, that it's really all my fault that I am. I have known about needing to sew these items for quite a while and just procrastinated until the very last minute! I should know better, but alas I keep making the same mistakes over and over again!
Me To!! Right now I'm blaming Pintrest. I start looking around and cant stop
I want to say that I am praying for the poor families in Connecticut today. Horrible and heartbreaking.
I am 90% done with the give eye spy bags. All I need to do is get the filling (either rice or the poly pellets, which are my first choice) and sew them closed. Can't post pictures of those yet though.
And I am also 90% done with the first dress. It's a Snow White inspired dress using the Little Lizard Apron Knot pattern. Overall the directions for this pattern are clear, but she doesn't really include any sizing information or finished measurements. I modified the apron portion. It was supposed to be a rectangle, but I wanted the rounded corners. I also lined it so I could use the ric-rac. I also used a blind hem stitch for the first time, so YAY me!
I still need to add the buttonholes (
the directions are a bit unclear for this so if anyone has made the patten before help me out, otherwise I'll have to email Little Lizard) and then I am also going to add an apple applique to the apron. Overall, happy with how it's turned out.
*edit* hee hee, I just realized my eye spy bags are peeking out from behind the dress! Those black straps are the handles to the bags!
Hoping to get a couple more dresses cut out today/tonight. Maybe more pictures tomorrow.
