WIP: New Look 6184 - 4

ワンピースの裏布にする予定の着物の生地を洗ったら、縮んだ!
もう、普通に洗濯機にかけて、普通に乾燥機にかけたものね。3センチぐらい縮んだ(笑)
おかげでスカートの型紙、微妙に入らないし。
(縫い代で調整します)
 As I had decided to use the 30+ years old kimono fabric as my lining, I washed the fabric.
Well, the fabric shrunk! It shrunk over an inch in width and now my skirt back won't fit.
Oh well, I will have to deal with it with narrow seam allowance.
I cut everything, sewed the darts and pleats, stay-stitched, and even serged all the raw edges. Since the dress will be entirely lined, I didn't have to treat the raw edges, but, I wanted to take care of it. I am enjoying the slow sewing process, I guess.
