Seamwork Adelaide #2

October 2, 2016

photo-oct-02-4-24-38-pm

I saw this Nani Iro double gauze at Stitch and couldn’t resist it! Turns out, it’s a lot harder to work with than the Birch double gauze. It’s a little looser woven, and stretches a bit more. It also seemed more delicate in general and prone to pulls.

BUT, it’s done and it is pretty nice!

My theory about these dresses was correct, btw – looks awesome with tights and boots and my Lupin jacket. Yay!

The only thing I changed for this version is taking up the shoulders .5″. Unfortunately I cannot remember if I altered the paper pattern, so I will have to check the original pattern next time.

These are damn close! Toppings are everything and salt, the best of the bagels. What is up with everything bagels without enough salt?! It’s the saddest. Anyway, join me next time as I try to make bialys, something I can’t even find a poor imitation of.
