Previously this morning I posted about my
Saturday Start. Well folks, I got going and sewed this little dress together in a short time.
It is basically finished. I need to add some button loops and some buttons. But those are inconveniently not where I can get to them. So I will get them tomorrow evening and fully finish this. However, I don't mind sewing on buttons. It is so SEW easy with my machine.
I added a step to this pattern since I know that the all cotton material with have to be ironed. I top-stitched all around the outer edges. Here is a great tip. For a close to the edge top-stitch use your zipper foot.
You can sew ever close to the edge and it will come out very neat. Just do it slow and steady.
Came out great!!!
ReplyDeleteCute little finish, Gene, and a great idea about the zipper foot. Now if I only knew how to use that zipper foot! Lol
ReplyDeleteThats a great tip on using your zipper foot. I will have to give it a try the next time I make a little outfit for the grandkids.
ReplyDeleteOh I was right, it is adorable. Great job Gene.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great tip. I want to see your machine.
ReplyDeleteTurned out wonderfully!
Great tip about the zipper foot and that wee dress is so cute.
ReplyDeleteThats a cute little dress! I will have to try the zipper foot for topstitching. It sounds like a great idea :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute and the zipper foot tip is one I'll have to remember. Top stitching isn't an easy thing for me I seem to waver all over the place.
