I prefer linings over facings, but dang I hate this part. #Sewist #SewistsOfBluesky #HandSewing
Pink lining being hand sewn to a black bodice. Lining is pinned to the bodice by a purple-ended double pin and a hand sewing needle and black thread is half pulled through the lining.

I thought the lining was too cute to not be seen so I added a little patch to the pocket. #Sewing #SewistsOfBluesky #ArtistApronDress #CharmPatternsByGertie

Haven’t measured the full length, but 2” wide bias tape coiled making almost 7” in diameter has to be a lot, right? #Sewing #CraftSky
Side view of pink bias tape coiled up on a green gridded cutting mat. Top view of pink coiled bias tape on a green gridded cutting mat measuring almost seven inches across.

Making bias tape is tedious, but dang it’s worth the results. #Sewing

My new teacup doesn’t fit into my teacup holster. So I’m taking matters into my own hands. #RenaissanceFairePrep #SoCalPleasureFaire

I can’t see a straight line to save my life. So when it’s time to make my boning channels it’s washi tape to the rescue! #Sewing
Two blue pieces of fabric with washi tape featuring rainbow hand signs along the edges on a green background with a yellow grid. The same blue pieces of fabric and washi tape, but this time moved over to display the straight lines of the boning channels.

Told myself I wasn’t allowed to sew any new projects until I revamped the hall bathroom. May I present day one bathroom progress!
