Dressmaking Wednesday.....

I know I am late with this post but seeing as I actually made some progress with my skirt on Wednesday I thought I would share it with you.....

stitching the pleats
I put my pins in the wrong way round and had to change them before I could start sewing!


I have also been learning pressing - not ironing


tailor baste stitches hold the pleats in place


ready for me to topstitch


Progress indeed I just need to do the same to the back now!

  1. It made me smile that you'd had to remove your pins. It sounds like something I would do. I was really annoyed when I realized I'd sewn something inside out the other day. I can't wait to see the finished skirt the fabric is lovely.
