green drapery reminiscent of Sound of Music!
No really, here's the curtain I found while thrifting:
The starting point for this project was a tutorial by My Mama Made It, but I wanted to incorporate more of the curtain fabric, so I put trim around the back and under arms (bias) as well as along the bottom (not bias)
The curtain was scratchy, especially on the backside, so I lined it with some white cotton from my stash.
I had to take the next picture, I assembled much of the shirt before sewing the pieces together! It was pretty comical.
End result:
The back needs a bit of work, notice how the bottom is a bit funky? It was difficult to pair the stretch green fabric with the stiff curtain. I think some darts or gathering will solve it.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful! Now use the rest of the curtain for a tote and you have a set!
Looks wonderful! That curtain fabric looks wonderful used this way. Good job!
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful. I made my own version of a sound of music curtain dress to wear to a fancy dress 40th. Here is the link if you want to see http://missmuggins.blogspot.com/2009/02/hills-are-alive-with-sound-of-music.html
