Difficult to take measurements for dressmaking with one of those though
You could send him round to try that with my dressmaking scissors and I'll disembowel him for you, if that would help?
@helenintgarden.bsky.social We have loads of toothpicks and cocktail sticks for similar reasons! A glass headed dressmaking pin is all quite good for applying tiny dots of glue - use the pointed end, the glass head gives you something to hold...
This is an in the folds rushcutter dress, my favourite pattern if I was forced to choose #sewing#dressmaking
Idk what im doing but it's turning into something and I hope my adhd wont just make it impossible to finish I got way too many projects I've only started and been unable to finish, but I really want this to be good🥹
Me too! I was only 14 or 15 and had no money, so took my mum's dressmaking shears to my hair.😱
Style Arc Bobs is my favourite trouser pattern, and I just made another pair. The monochrome brushstroke checks make them look like fancy chefs trousers! #sewing#dressmaking#outfit
Before and after on this top with too tight sleeves. Took them off and made them into flutters instead #sewing#dressmaking#upcycling#africanwax
Not long after graduating art school, i was daydreaming about what kind of artist workspace i'd like to have, and imagined basically owning a couple floors of a building, lol. imagine those old cutaway diagrams of the Baxter Building but with "painting studio", "dressmaking studio", "audio" etc.
