Your whole look in the photo is festive and warm, and very appealing. <br /><br />I thought your diagram was perfectly informative, and if you saw the insides of my sketchbooks you would know that you too are an artist, or else I am not either!<br /><br />In reagard to your bias pocket - One thing that I have done to make working with rayon easier is to starch it well as yardage before using it. I have been able to do bias edge bindings, and other details that would be a real difficult project by pre-treating the rayon. I either soak it, or spray it well, I use homemade starch that is a mixture of cornstarch and water. I also have to remember to use a press cloth to press it flat with, as the starch tends to stick to my iron. But the result is rayon as stiff and easy to work with as muslin. Once I am done sewing the garment and all the details, the starch washes out in the laundry, and I am left with a garment that is lovely and drapey again<br /><br />Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01994300004330705947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1964455364460450296.post-18715434538708637992017-01-14T09:01:29.696-07:002017-01-14T09:01:29.696-07:00Thanks Dawn.

It's wha...Thank you SO much! This is perfect! <br /><br />It's what I 'thought' you might be doing, but it's pretty 'seamless' (lol) in the pic, the tartan hides the renovation very well. A great work-around for fabric one might want to use but isn't the perfect width. Or, I imagine, one could piece fabrics together and create a patchwork slip!

Thank you for sharing the accidents and corrections along the way. That dropped waist could also be an empire waist, methinks.<br /><br />I do have one question - I'm not quite understanding the part about adding 'a band on each side of the handkerchief skirt to compensate for the lack of width' - could you add a picture illustrating this with a drawing or something? I guess it's a testament to how well you did it that I can't tell from the picture that's there!!<br /><br />Great look!!Lisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1964455364460450296.post-74511949766690480142017-01-13T11:46:14.464-07:002017-01-13T11:46:14.464-07:00Thank you for the lovely comments - and will do.
