Machine Hems

I'm sorry I've been so bad about posting this week, but it's really only because whenever I was awake all I was doing was working on this project.  It paid off too, because ALL of the clothes are totally done. DONE. Done. Finished. Done. AHH! (sorry..)

So, here's a little recap on what I did this week. I made the rest of the jewelry, including some bracelets.  I sewed and liquidstitched the life out of these garments, I wrestled with my sewing machine (it's turning on me, and I'm not even kidding), I priced all of my items, I dragged all my modelfriends out to Morristown and we had an amazing photoshoot, and I FINISHED. AH. Now off to make presentations and a sales site and line sheets and a mini-catalogue. Whew.

Here's one of the reasons why I battled with my machine: machine hems.  It involves really tediously rolling the hem of something and trapping it under the machine and sewing over the roll really quick and straight so it stays.  But it looks gorgeous in the end, so it's all okay.

So now I have a shopping site to make and five hundred photoshoot pictures to sift through. Posting again soon!
