Hello everyone,
For week 5 my partner Vinny and I started to test out some of our project materials.
We alternated between hand-stitching and applique with a glue gun.
We chose hand-stitching over the glue gun due to its mess-free fixture and overall appearance.
The picture above shows a couple balloons stitched horizontally on the edge of a muslin fabric, since muslin is what we will use for base of our dress. I found the stitching of the balloons onto the muslin a little tricky (wasn't as easy as i imagined it to be) however once i got the hang of it i managed to get a feel for what is to be expected. We plan on stay stitching balloons before running them through the sewing machine for ultimate preciseness. As for the Aluminum peplum (skirt) we will be using heavy duty aluminum foil vs standard, along with a ultra-thick interfacing.
