Hello sew-friends! Today, I'm sharing a new make and not to exaggerate but I think this is my favorite thing that I've made all year. I absolutely LOVE this jumpsuit. It was fun to sew and the fit is really good. In fact, the fit is a hundred times better than I ever expected for a wrap style. Let's dive into the details.
Hello sew-friends! We are one day away from the official start of the fall season, so it's high time that I share this summer maxi dress. I started this dress sometime around the end of July and it was supposed to be a quick and easy make. Unfortunately, I ran into some fitting issues that prolonged the process. Really, it was a good reminder to make a muslin every time you sew. (File that under advice I give but don't always take!)
I’m always looking for ways to improve my topstitching because I feel like really accurate topstitching makes a garment look so much more professional. So, to help myself dial in my topstitching, I decided to get a special sewing machine foot called an edge stitch foot.
This is a special sewing machine foot accessory that (usually) does not come with the machine and it was not cheap. I’m not sure what I originally paid but it’s now running about $32 USD. I honestly don’t know if the machine foot is worth the cost. Time will tell on that. But, I will definitely be using it for the next button down shirt that I sew.
