Revision and prom dress fitting.....
.....and princess seams. Something new to me and involving a fair bit of trickery to sew. There was so much extra fabric to ease in, I thought I must have cut the pieces in different sizes. I hadn't.
Today you'll find me with a much easier task. Ironing the transfers, drawn by my girl for her friends, onto plain white t-shirts. It's a Shiba Inu, star of an internet meme. No, I'd never heard of it either.
Waving to Sian on this sunny Monday afternoon.

Oh yes, I remember those seams from my A level needlework days! I made a dress with a very shaped bodice and it was a nightmare to ease that fabric into the curve of the seam without any folds - I'm sure you coped admirably!
Not long now to the end of the exams and you can all relax and enjoy the summer!
Love that your girl has designed the t shirts for her friends.
Princess seams? Golly, that sounds complicated! I have enough trouble with ordinary straight stitch. Sending commiserations on the exam front and hoping it's over for all of you soon.
Wow: that's so clever1 I bet they all love having a limited edition. before you know it, her tshirts will be an internet sensation themselves
We're into the final week here. Last exam on Friday and not a moment too soon
It's been pretty much the same for us here this week. Great t-shirt idea..not that i've heard of him either x
Princess seams - sounds very fiddly - but I can't wait to see the finished product!
There's always too much material for easing isn't there! It will be worth it, the bodice will be just perfect, I know. We're very into anime as you know around here, and Miss Dunnit thinks your lovely gals drawing is awesome. I love the tshirt idea, what a great gift.
Well that's two lots of googling I have to do - one for princess seams and the other for the dog. Have a great week x
I can't wait to see that finished dress but I don't envy you those seams!
Two fabulous projects there in the works. And who can possibly keep up on all the Internet memes.
I can't wait to see the finished dress, that drawing is amazing x
Such a lie yo idea to design individual and unique shirts. Hope the dress is coming along OK xx
