\"Eugenie<\/a>

Eugenie bodice, flatlined inside<\/p><\/div>\n

Period sewing techniques suck! So insanely slow and looks much more crappy than modern tricks — specifically, only flat-lining instead of flat-lining for strength and bag-lining for tidiness. Gah, the inside of this gown looks like hell and took all day to “finish,” such as it is.<\/p>\n

This masquerade costume is full of stuff I’m never, ever doing again. Not bag-lining. Piping. Hand-made eyelets. Never again!!!<\/p>\n

At least making the piping went a lot faster, thanks to Bridget’s trick of using spray-basting to hold it together until sewing. Also, finally having an actual piping foot hugely helped. Not gonna do the fancy thing Kendra showed me with the piping half-wider on one side and then folded over on the middle. Too much trouble, not enough time. The seam edges are all raw and simply over-casted by hand. I’ll do the same with the piping edges and they’ll all fray equally (which is to say, a hell of a lot — srsly, why are people so against bag-lining? this is a mess inside! an “accurate” mess, but whatevs).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
