Hi beautiful friends!
I was sewing today again on this transformation project: putting the zip in the back...
The cut is a tad squint, but I kind of love imperfections!
Hand stitching is such a gorgeously meditative practise....
My first fitting happened today also! As I'd thought, the body is too short, but the legs fit nicely 🥰
To lengthen the body, I'm going to cut open the shoulder seam and the collar edging, and add a short strip to give the right length. It has been a good exercise in methodically moving forward and finding solutions, even though I'm not skilled to immediately know what to do! I love a steep learning curve, and am determined to grow my mastery of sewing 🤩
