This is the dress I'm working on (view 2). It's one of the vintage patterns that Anj sent me from Oregon. The front and back of dress is completed and I finished all the seams with the overcasting foot. I also put together the lining.
I decided to go with the handpicked zipper again because I really liked that technique & I don't want to stretch out this linen while I'm struggling with the zipper foot.
I stabilized it with interfacing and pinned it in
Here's the front. So much easier to do this by hand. Everything is nice and flat.
after i sew the zipper in, i'm going to attempt the quick-lining technique from Threads magazine.
