#s9754 It's so important to use the correct fabric with a pattern. This make was difficult for me, I don't think I used the right material, but I'm stubborn, so perseverance won. 👊🏿
What happened was... I dug around my scrap bin and pulled out this stretchy black spandex and some bits of very stretchy velour, and I thought ... yeah, man, this is good enough. 🤣😂 It was not.
It was too stretchy, and it sort of ballooned. Hence, I had to put a bit of elastic in the neck and part of the armholes. Of course, I ran out of ball point needles, and I can't just waltz over to the fabric store, the closest one is 2.5 hours away, so I used my serger mostly, but for top stitching, skipped stitches plagued this make. 🫣
Having said all that, the top is cute and I'm going to wear it, but yeah, I will definitely have to make it again with the correct fabric and proper needles. 👀🤷🏿♀️
What's next? I think I can squeeze out one more Summer dress before we Fall. 😁
Happy Sewing all 🧵🪡💃🏿
