Nice to know. I love Billie’s just on general principal, but knowing where to find ribbing is priceless.
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantVery cool looking. And so simple to wear anywhere.
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantA grosgrain waist stay inside will help–but what about adding vertical stays hanging from the shoulders like suspenders to pull the waist stay upwards? Or do a complete shortened bodice lining under the top layer that would hold up the pants as well as blouse the top. Dior used to do that kind of thing a lot.
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantNow I REALLY want to travel again. Belgium is stop number two in our ski tours–we spend the first night in Europe in Brussels. I love the buttons on this. And how did you get the bottlecaps to stay put?
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantSo cute. Still– a lot of work for a newborn who will wear it about twice!
They grow so fast at that age that nothing is ever worn out.pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantReally fantastic buttons there–where did they come from?
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantThere are a lot of t-shirts. Raglan tees might be an option. The hardest part is binding the neckline.
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantLOVE IT. SKORTS SEEM TO HAVE RETURNED THIS YEAR.
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantOh how lovely
pauw-barden@comcast.netParticipantI drew the quilting design on the fabric, along with the stitching lines of the coat pieces, and quilted most of it before I cut it out and joined the seams. The batting is cotton outing flannel used as a flatlining. The motifs are traditional Japanese blossoms, coupled with a variety of geometrics. The inside is fully lined so nothing of the workings ever show. I joined the lining and the coat with a wide bias binding, which does not show in this picture.
