Shannon, Adorable Ariel!!!! Did you see Heather's Tink she listed today? I am having issues not buying it. LOL
I am TOTALLY buying Tink. I've told Heather that I am definitely buying it - but I've GOT to get a few things off my table first. I'm a bit backed up! If I buy another design right now, I know that I'll start stitching that right away rather than doing what I need to do. SO, that Tink is my motivation to get this stuff done! Get it done and then I can play with Tink!
KELL-
Shannon:
LOVE LOVE LOVE the ruffley Ariel dress...looks like she does too!
Okay now get this...I swear my kids are gonna make me nuts...today Em (12) decides she wants me to make a skirt to go with her Mulan hotfix shirt. Um...she's 12, and wears a women's size 9/10/11. What the heck?! She has two fabrics she wants me to use. Suggestions?
THANKS! AbbyGrace loves it!
Have you considered Carla C's wrap skirt on YCMT? It's pretty simple.
Shannon, LOVE the Ariel dress! Ariel was my favorite as a child. I know that movie by heart.
I noticed your rolled hem on the ruffles.. definitely looks better than how mine come out. I need to try it again.
Thanks! I'm pleased with how it came out.
I did the rolled edge hem on the bottom edge as well as the ruching on the front. I paid close attention to my settings because I wanted to be able to tell you what I did. I did a wider stitch on the bottom, and a narrower on the ruching. I did the stitch length at about .5. It kinda clicks in a groove right before the 1 on the rolled edge side, so I guess it would be considered .5. I used regular old maxi lock thread. I can't see ANY fabric between the stitches. It completely covers the edge. And I don't think it's stiff at all. But maybe that's just me.
Guess what came today? My pleated inserts! WOO HOO! Another thing to play with! I've gotta figure out what I want to stitch first!
