| Ranma1-2 Joined: 19 Dec 2008 Posts: 526 | TOS red dress update: After seam ripping through all the seams and getting back to the paper pattern I found why my dress didnt work out. It turns out I didnt get the sizing wrong. The fault was.. I had traced the pattern lines first onto some seethrough fabric and pinned that onto the red fabric to cut - it turns out the seethrough fabric is too stretchy and has been distorting so my fabric sections are out quite a lot. Fix - So, I am now half way through editing all the fabric sections to make them match the paper pattern. I might be able to rescue this dress. By tommorow I will know...
Front half of corrected dress is now sewed back together. |

I then tried to embroider the design on using the sewing machine but it was taking forever so I painted the border and motiff over with black acrylic. It will have to do until I can buy one. I am sticking a quick piccie of it in journal so you can see |

| Isabela Joined: 26 Jul 2012 Posts: 197 | I'm thinking about doing a Star Trek cisplay for October. It'll probably be bought and not made as I really don't have the time! And most likely a generic science officer rather than a character. Would love join in though |
