My camera didn't like focusing on the print of this dress. After about 10 tries, I just picked the best of the worse!
This ITY knit was thin and made the perfect Summer dress from my TNT McCall 6074 pattern. I made the V-neck and added a little cap sleeve. Easy Summer dressing.

The second version I made the 43" length, cap sleeves and v-neck. This ITY knit is a little thicker but has a nice feel to it.

I've been working on a pattern for Girl M. Knit, elastic waist, pull-on shorts. I hate fitting pants/shorts! I've having an issue with the crotch being too tight. I think I need to scoop out the crotch deeper. But it's giving me a headache, why can't she just wear a skirt?
Until next time...................

Love those dresses--the prints are beautiful. When I am troubleshooting pants fitting I always need a picture to compare so I know what needs to be done. This may be helpful: https://5outof4.com/pants-fitting-guide. Pants are not so bad once you get a good fitting, then make a sloper. Happy Sewing!
ReplyDeleteThan you for the pants fitting site info, I'm on my way over there now!
