Hi Mary! Welcome to the eye progressive world! 👓. You will learn to love them. The top, what I see, looks good. Rayon is challenging to work with. I agree with you. I think you're gathered loosened up when you were working with it.
I think we are right, Zelda I will try to unpick the binding and do SOMEthing with it LOL I’m loving the progressive world so far!🤓thanks so much for watching!!🥰
The top you’re wearing is so pretty, Mary! The fabric you bought is gorgeous, and, I agree with you about the huge selvedge! Those dog dresses are adorable! 💗
Hi Andra! Thank you so much, that top is one of my firsts so I love it 🥰 yes I think I kinda got ripped off but the fabric itself is almost worth it 🤓I just better make something super nice with that! I hope you have a great week! 💕💕
Hi Mary. Could you run a thin drawstring through your bias binding to gather the neckline? The top is pretty. I would persevere and try and fix it. A warm brown has red or gold tones. I like the idea of buying myself some fabric for Mother's Day! Happy Mother's Day, Mary! 💐 Bernadette
Ooo that’s a good idea!! Or maybe extra thin elastic? I will keep trying😌warm brown sounds pretty I hope that was a good one for me🙂 Happy Mother’s Day and thank you so much for your sweet comments ❤️❤️
Hi Mary! I also bought that New Look pattern in the Hobby Lobby sale. From the model’s picture I was worried the neckline would scoop down too low (for my liking). Sorry you had problems with it 🙁 I am late watching this and hope you have found a fix to save it. LOVE your multi color marble fabric! I don’t like buying fabric by the half yard because it usually (always?) more expensive than I would normally spend. Looking forward to your Dice of Fate video!!
I did fix it- sort of 😂- I ripped out the bias binding cut a new pattern piece but made it wider-gathered with hand basting -and added some elastic….its a little better 😅😅
My daughter is a soft summer - I really like her colours! I’m a winter. I did get our colours done professionally. I think your blouse could be saved, but that would require quite a bit of unpicking. Maybe try to remove the binding, fix the neckline as best you can and put the binding back on? You sure didn’t choose an easy fabric to work with 😂 Have a good weekend!
Hi Izzy! When you had your colors done, did you find out you were wearing the right colors? This rayon challis is a lot flimsier than the last one I worked with- I’ve already started unpicking 🤪it will be a learning experience for sure! Happy Mother’s Day to you ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Mary! Looks like you did somehow lose the gathers and the bias is too heavy for that fabric. Can you by any chance insert some thin elastic into that binding? Or even remove the binding and create a small channel to insert elastic in and close up the front, leaving a small V with some fabric binding ( look up New look 6414). Hope you can save it somehow as it is such a pretty top. I absolutely love your little spinner 👏🏻👏🏻, so glad you have started that and can’t wait to see the results. Love your fabrics, that sea foam green is gorgeous. I didn’t realise you got the Juliet top as well, I will admit I am nervous about the tucks 😅. Great to see you and fab video xxx
Hi Carole!! Thank you for all the tips! I’m in the process of unpicking🥲 hopefully I can fix it … I already filmed my first video for the”dice of fate”, but Technology is not my friend this week so the laptop is in the corner for now😂… I am very afraid of those pintucks also but Karina from lifting pins and needles does a great little tutorial. Who knows it might be a new favorite 🤩 thank you so much for watching as alwaysXX ❤️❤️
Junk it or not? I think I would try to work with what you have and see if you can make it better, and if you can't, then at least you know you did or you've done everything you could.

@@luvmycrafts_Mary Yes, pretty much. I did discover a few colours I rarely wore that really look nice on me too which was cool. Happy Mother’s Day!!
