| alice + olivia , V1261 |
I finally got my Bernina sewing machine fixed. It hasn't made buttonholes for a while. I was used to it not working well. Now that it's fixed, I almost have to get used to it working properly again.
I bought this fabric from Emma Onesock a while ago and have been wanting to make V1261, an Alice + Olivia pattern with it. I was inspired by Amanda's Adventures in Sewing's version . I made my seams similar to her's. I sewed them right sides together and pressed the seam flat. I used twin needle topstitching over the seam and it made a ridge:
The ridges looked very nice on the raglan seams. I decided to keep them. The hem was simply folded up by 3/4" and topstitched 5/8" from the fold. The drape of this fabric is really nice. The pattern called for two way stretch knits, I don't know if this was a two way stretch but it seems to have enough.
The chevron pattern is easier to see in the second picture.
