Hey friends! I'm finally back with a new sewing project, a vintage 1970s Laura Ashley design that reminds me of all things Jane Austen and Bridgerton! I hope you enjoy watching the process!

So cute. Love the longer length. Loved Laura Ashley. Her stores were amazing.

I became obsessed with Laura Ashley when I discovered the Batsheva and Joanie collaborations. I stocked up on so many of their dresses, but since I am learning how to sew, I thought it would be nice to make my own using paper patterns!! I'm obsessed with finding old Gunne Sax patterns too. I wish more people would make PDFs out of their old patterns, because I think these are starting to get harder to find and more expensive too.

Isn’t sewing just magical? You learn something new with everything you sew and eventually could make any dress you could ever want!

This is such a lovely dress! the pictures in the garden were so pretty! I'm not sure you or someone else in the comments can help but I have a seeing question. I think I'm seeing that the seams aren't all even. For example, at the shoulder and side bodice seams it looks off by about 1/8 - 1/4". I find this to be the case especially when I use vintage patterns. I wonder if it's my cutting, my fabric choice, my technique (i.e., the difference is part of the pattern and I should be easing the seams together to fit, hard to do at a shoulder seam), or the actual pattern pieces. Do you just ignore the difference and keep going? (What I tend to do but feel like it's not probably the correct approach.) I hope I'm being clear. Do you have any suggestions or preferences for how you approach seam length discrepancies?
@rachellynncreates2703
@rachellynncreates2703 3 года назад
Make sure you are stay stitching the arm holes and the neck. Your fabric may be stretching before sew. So do the stay stitching right after you cut.
@LaurenJohnson
@LaurenJohnson 3 года назад
Hi Tracy, thank you so much! I think there could be several factors at play here-- I know sometimes when I'm cutting out pieces in layers, the lower layer of fabric will be slightly different than the upper layer. I've read that mass produced clothing sizes vary so much because they are cut out in such thick layers! Sometimes I will unfold my pieces, and check the edges with the pattern before sewing, but honestly most of the time I ignore it if it's a small discrepancy. Rachel's tip about stay stitching is great as well, especially on fabrics that are thinner or more delicate. I hope this helps!

I'm cringing about the hem. My home economics teacher, who would have included a dress of this era since it would have been contemporary, would have marked you down for not letting it hang to allow the bias to relax.
