The commission for Paul’s first #RibbonShirt is all done, save a thread trim and wash. My only regret is that I haven’t a mannequin on which to display it for photos.
Like all Elfkin creations, this shirt is made from a custom pattern drafted exactly to Paul’s measurements and was assembled to classic #couture standards. #sewing#art
The third, and hopefully final, toile for Paul’s #RibbonShirt is done. Having a stock of pre-drawn collars is very much paying off. I was able to cycle through a few convertible collars before settling on this one.
This is also my first time tracing patterns at the stitch line and cutting the allowances freehand. It was much less scary than anticipated.
Also used new spool converter on my 201 for the first time. Waaaay better than a thread stand for cross-wound spools. #sewing#couture
