\"Petticoat<\/a>

Gown with petticoat, in-progress<\/p><\/div>\n

After finding a very helpful video<\/a> showing how to do a blind hem stitch on your sewing machine, I realized I need a new foot for my machine. Additional research showed I might could use a specific guide, not necessarily a full foot. I’ll check and see if I already have such a thing (because, after all, I owned a rolled hem foot for a decade before knowing what it was, much the less trying to use it). However, hopes are not high.<\/p>\n

Odds are, I’ll be using stitch-witchery on this hem, just in case I don’t get around to the ruffle. See? Trystan is a sewing slacker! That’s something y’all can count on, like death and taxes.<\/p>\n

Later that night…<\/em><\/p>\n

Looks like the machine blind hem stitch may not be the answer for me. I followed the video’s instructions — eyeballing it seemed to be OK. But I didn’t like the result. There’s a 1\/8th” pleat that it creates when I fold the bit back. My hem measurement isn’t *that* exact, but still. I don’t enjoy messing up with my already approximate length. I’m probably doing it wrong though.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I used iron-on hem tape, and hemmed the entire 130″ of the petticoat in about 15 minutes. Can’t beat that with a stick!<\/p>\n

Have to hem mark and hem the polonaise itself, and then I’ll have the whole argument with myself again. Harumph. When can I get on to the trimming?!?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
