Back to it



Having been away from the studio for a week!
 I was glad to get stuck in, and see what
Emma had been upto.
 
 
...Lots of hand sewing.
 
...Meters and meters of hand sewing. 

 
Although we work together, we both have our own idividual projects, we each have garment's that suit our individual work ethic... this one, would not suit me.
 
Emma gets the pain staking pieces, and i get the more tailor intensive garments.
 
Which are, to be fair, no less pain staking.
 
 
Shaped Seaming
 
 
Oversewing
 
 
We both cut... because it saves time
(and i hate it!)
 
 
Basting... (yeh... dont like that either)
 
 
Moulding
 
 
Draping
 
 
Tacking
 
 
 
For 'tis but too true, a labour of love.
 
 
The studio iron is dead. No steam.
and you can't make a two piece with out steam!
 
So i shall be investing in a new, expensive, steam machine.
 
That's all.
 
 
Is it a bird.... will it be with me forever?
 
It is my Hair!
