But I think I'm going to re-do the waistline after all. I mean, it's probably only half an hour work, right? If half an hour could make me feel better about the fit, it's worth it!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12481065265121629150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7813212817291263893.post-10530494292807561512012-08-23T06:57:20.074+02:002012-08-23T06:57:20.074+02:00It's SO CUTE! We've actually had something...It's SO CUTE! We've actually had something resembling a summer up here this year, and I've been wearing nothing but fluttery sundresses... so nice. I definitely see the appeal, and it's the perfect use for that fabric. :)<br /><br />1) Circle skirts ALWAYS need to be hung before hemming. I, too, "knew" this and have ignored it several times, and it's always been an issue, regardless of fabric. :)<br /><br />2) I could see from the photos that the waist seemed a bit low, but I wasn't sure if it was intentional or not. For me, I would want to redo it---but having a short waist, it's one of my sore spots. I don't think most people would really notice... (I'm similarly paranoid about my sleeves and pants being long enough...) And I totally get not wanting to unpick the zipper. One of the dresses I made last summer didn't get worn at all this summer because I need to unpick the skirt (including zipper) and re-fit it. Have I done it? /sigh...Tanit-Isishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15824217102632813598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7813212817291263893.post-16748881824175802762012-08-23T02:38:17.616+02:002012-08-23T02:38:17.616+02:00very pretty :) yeah, anytime something is cut ...very pretty :) yeah, anytime something is cut on the bias you need to let it hang up for 24 hours before hemming to let the fabric settle.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01716213095620396409noreply@blogger.com
