Ottobre – 1-2015 #9 Crocodile Hoodie
Things I Learned
- There are different ways to do binding. I had to try out a new way this time so raw edges wouldn’t be shown inside the hood.
- If a stretchy knit isn’t cut carefully, it could end up misshapen. One piece of the hood lining was too large and I had to cut it to match after I had sewn one of the seams. Next time for the hood I will cut one piece at a time instead of doubling up and I will make sure all pieces are the same size before sewing!
Ottobre – 1-2014 #14 Lime Lemon Jersey Dress
Lime Lemon Jersey Dress as a Princess Leia costume!
Things I Learned
- Modifications – This was my first time doing any type of pattern design modifications. Previously I had only lengthened a shirt or shorted sleeves a couple inches. For this dress, I lengthened the dress quite a bit and changed the shape of the sleeves in order to resemble Princess Leia’s dress. Surprisingly, my mods worked out great on the first attempt. 🙂
- Creativity – I loved the creativity with this project. I found the tutorial for the belt online and was happy it turned out great as well.
I was very impressed with how this turned out! Especially since it was my first time doing something like this. 🙂
