Shortncuddly - Oh, looks like a really cute outfit - can't wait to hear how it goes
I've got a few gracefaerie patterns myself but I've not actually used one yet.
Mitisfeles - Welcome to the party
I think it sounds like you've got a lovely outfit planned!
My project Update!
No pictures yet - I've successfully scanned and done a preliminary resizing of the pattern pieces. This will be an interesting project because the original pattern I'm working from is "unprinted", meaning no sewing marks or anything written on the pattern. Instead it was all done by different combinations of holes punched into the tissue! Fortunately the pattern layout pieces actually include the dot markings - soooo convenient as I'd prefer not to have to consult the rather fragile pattern pieces.
next step, which I can't do today because I just discovered that my cat Micheletto decided to destroy the roll of paper towels I use to do first fittings >< One or two claw marks, no problem, shredded down to the tube - definitely not useable >< Ah well, I needed a new roll anyway I suppose. In reading through the instructions I already see a change I may make -because it looks like the ruffle is one sided with just a hem on the outer edge. I don't like the idea of that at all - so I may make it doubled instead.
