首の後ろのところがガバガバで、わきの下もガバガバで。
ロックミシンまでかけたのを泣く泣くほどいて直してみたんだけどやっぱり微妙で、なんか大失敗作になってしまいました。
悔しかったのと、まだスカート残ってるのと、布が幸いあまってるのもあるので、ここは一発仕切りなおしです。
切りなおしです。
青いのが布です |
(だから型紙は切らずにトレーシングペーパーを使って大正解)
一歩進んで二歩下がっています。
まぁ、そんな人生もあり。
Seam ripper is my best friend.
I think sewing is 60% prep work and ripping, 30% pressing, and 10% at the sewing machine.
After cutting the pattern and fabric at size 12, my McCall's M6713 proved to be a bit baggy.
Back neck and armholes were gaping big time.
I tried to fix the back neck gaping by putting a dart; it worked.
Then I thought, why don't I put a clear elastic on the front neck?
...Well, that was not a good idea.
I must have pulled the elastic too much that the whole front neck became wonky.
Hard pill to swallow, but decided to re-start the project from tracing and cutting patterns for size 10 (and ease out to size 12 at waist) and re-cut the fabric.
...But that's for another day. Today, I will just walk away.
