1. All looking pretty ok so far, but don't get too excited Megan, winter is coming...
2. Perhaps a tad over-zealous with my pencil, but I can never see tidy little dots I mark.
3. Now, Sarah's book is lovely, but I have to say, a bit minimalist as far as diagrams go. I could not understand the instruction "When you reach the Y junction of the seam, pivot on your needle and continue sewing out to the stem of the Y" with no picture to help. Hmmmmm. I appeared to be on the wrong side of the fabric to pivot, so I went for an origami approach instead.
4. OMG!! It worked.
5. A little undersized, but its not from the sea, so no need to throw it back.
6. I'm pretty happy with this little experiment. The sun is shining, I'm going to celebrate by heading to the beach and just maybe, my first sea swim of the summer.
Well it looks impressive, technical but impressive :) well done
ReplyDeleteOoh well done! I hate y-seams - so I'm always impressed when someone tackles them successfully!
ReplyDeleteYou have done the perfect job of your "y" seams! Enjoy your swim!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful Y seam! I think it's one of those things that you either need to see someone doing it in person, or just give it a go yourself.
ReplyDeleteWell aren't you clever! Beautiful work
ReplyDeleteWell done, it looks perfect! I too hate Y -seams & tend to avoid them if possible! How many more to go?!?!?!? L
ReplyDeleteLooks great - well done.
ReplyDeleteIt looks very tidy. Was definitely a beach day yesterday - Auckland's hottest day so far this summer I reckon!
ReplyDeleteLooks good - how was the water - a real stinkin hot Kiwi weekend wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteyay for experiments working! I agree with the diagrams in that book - I can't get my head around them. Maybe you could do a quick You-tube demonstration for us :-)
