I’m on my regular mission to organise and store my Making stuff and have come across a few little sewing projects which have been (almost) forgotten about. I had started an Ogden Cami top, by True Bias patterns, quite some time ago. I can’t quite remember the date but it can be counted in years rather than months. I’m not quite sure why the top has not been completed ? I’ve done most of the work. Technically, there’s only the hem and the straps to sew. I could probably have finished the job in an hour or so.
I’ve spent some time closely inspecting the Cami and decided to work on the top edge of the garment and it’s much improved. The fabric is a silk polyester jersey-like material and quite tricky to sew. There’s lots of stretch but it’s also very slippy. The top line of cami it self interfaced (with the same fabric) and in parts, quite bulky. Yesterday, I trimmed and graded the layers and it’s much improved. Hopefully, I can find some time to complete my Cami today.
In addition to the Ogden Cami, I came across another project waiting to be started - this time it’s just a plan plus the pattern and materials ! Hopefully, as soon as the Ogden Cami has been finished, I’ll start the next project. It will be a blue T shirt using woven fabric and embellished with ribbon. Again, this is something that’s been waiting a very long time to make. I’ll share the details of this new project ‘to be’, tomorrow.
Thanks for calling in today.
