Welcome back y’all!
Allie has been subtly hinting that she doesn’t have many skirts in her collection.
I want to keep her happy so a skirt is in the making this week.
Let’s see what print Blythe chose for her skirt.
This Month’s Sewing Motto:
– Chris Guillebeau
Inspiration is good, but inspiration plus action is so much better.
Dolly Sewing Crush: Blythe Style Dress Up Project #2
The 2nd project this month is a delightful Skirt.
Allie left the Blythe Style Dress Up Sewing Book open on page 52.
I think this was her subtle way of saying she wants this Skirt made.
I finally got the hint and was surprised to learn that there was only 5 steps plus sub steps to make this Skirt.
The directions for the Skirt are written in Japanese.
There are no images to go with the directions, only an illustration with numbers that correspond to the steps.
Your Layout For Sewing Success
Here is your blueprint for making the Skirt:
The Skirt
- Sew lace to hem
- Fold & top stitch hem seam allowance
- Sew a gather stitch on the waist
- Gather skirt to the size of the ribbon & sew
- Sew skirt close
- Attach hook and loop
Awesome sauce, the Skirt is complete!
Final Thoughts:
Seeing Allie happy in her new skirt, makes us happy.
Dolly Insider Skill Level Rating:
Beginner Friendly
It’s a quick project that came together smoothly.
The lace trim is a nice touch
See you next week for the 3rd project!
