I can't wait to see your lacy lavender loveliness. The weather is completely screwing with our photo shoots, but we will be adorable and sunny in due time. Good luck finishing up.

I'm hoping for a final push this weekend to finish. Though I've got a lot left to do, it won't be impossible.

Thanks for the great post. <br />Looking forward to your finished dress. Mine is essentially done. Just need to adjust the sleeves, lose five pounds, and for the temps to go up about 20 degrees, and I'm good to go. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05231255883143227977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522513576255574176.post-48475365328011018872013-03-26T11:35:09.487-04:002013-03-26T11:35:09.487-04:00Love me some french seams!Love me some french seams!Craft Sanctuaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573086983989271568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522513576255574176.post-37392891370896357442013-03-26T11:21:48.758-04:002013-03-26T11:21:48.758-04:00If the fabric is too heavy or thick, the seams can...If the fabric is too heavy or thick, the seams can definitely end up rather bulky! And yes, this is a technique that's best used for straight or nearly straight seams. If it has a curve, like an armhole, and you want a french seam-esque finish, I'd recommend going with a mock french seam. http://www.burdastyle.com/techniques/mock-french-seamsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07671918386628691376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522513576255574176.post-17819131918568406222013-03-25T20:03:05.168-04:002013-03-25T20:03:05.168-04:00I've done a few french seams but sometimes the...I've done a few french seams but sometimes they end up so thick... any advice on doing them on curved seams?
