drawstrings


[livejournal.com profile] sadievale came over yesterday for a sewing day. We spent a fair amount of our day NOT sewing but it was fun. We shopped at Jo-Anns, ate Vietnamese food, had tea & Pims, giggled and schemed.

I didn't get too far with my sewing but progress was made. I think I'm finally getting this chemise gown thing! I'm excited it's starting to make sense to me at last. I marked, pressed and hemmed the front drawstring. Then I dug around in my ancient bin of silk ribbon embroidery supplies and found, to my delight, matching narrow silk ribbon to use in the drawstring. Sweet!

Yes, it's pretty obvious I'm attracted to this shade in general.

Thanks! The inspiration wall is really to keep me from having to rummage through my project file while I'm working. It saves an amazing amount of time of frustration I've discovered. :>
