I am wearing this sparkly frock a lot, so I made another version, in a teal coloured wool-blend jersey I bought while I was in Melbourne. Moggy bought some of this fabric too.
I widened the neckline a smidge to make it more boaty, but I went too far. My bra straps peek out a little. Why do I have to tinker when I already know I like the way it turns out? Why?
It's ok, my hair can cover it.
For years I used my hair to cover the top of dodgy back-zip insertion in frocks. Now I have my fab invisible zipper foot my zips are neat, so I could really cut my hair. If I didn't need it long for this bra strap issue, obviously.
Such a pretty colour. Can't wait to get back into that sewing room!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure that I could put in an invisible zip without a special zip, so you've done well to fudge it. Love the electric blue!
