Well the fact that you still have moments...Hi Jodi<br /><br />Well the fact that you still have moments makes me feel much better :-)<br /><br />A tiny iron is a brilliant idea...I didn't even know they existed. Trying to press this with my big iron was a mare.<br /><br />I hadn't heard of Stitch Witchery...thought it was a HP reference till I googled it lol.<br /><br />I know it as WundaWeb and I do have some here.<br /><br />I hadn't heard of heat set either so I'll look for some of that too.<br /><br />And I hand sew everything as well ...can't imagine attempting something this size on a machine ...think I'd lose my fingers.<br /><br />Practice !!!! Practice !!!! Practice !!!!Tallulah Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490186975270835647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-51685298689136103392009-08-27T03:21:24.662+01:002009-08-27T03:21:24.662+01:00WOW... you have had a time of it...but know this.....WOW... you have had a time of it...but know this...that even as many years as I have been sewing doll clothes...I still do from time to time (more times that I wish to admit) a few of those things that you listed... <br />I would suggest that you get a tiny press iron (for getting into those tiny spots)... press a small hem seam one both the body of the jacket and the sleeve...and then either glue or hand sew one to the other.... works great to get you started. I do mostly hand sewing...ironing my seams first and then blind stitching or using small bits of Stitch Witchery and heat set...then top stitch...<br />Larger clothing is tough...miniature clothing is damn near impossible at times... <br /><br />Hang in there<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JodiCreager Studioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13614188104491419238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-69643153689995797462009-08-27T02:15:37.709+01:002009-08-27T02:15:37.709+01:00Ara...complicated is an understatement ....I had n...Ara...complicated is an understatement ....I had no idea and really thought I would just be able to sew lol.<br /><br />Casey...glue would actually be worse for me right now...at least with sewing I can unpick it when I mess it up :-)<br /><br />Kat...you really, really shouldn't have offered that....so tempting...you might regret it lol. You are up to your ears in R/L sewing now though so that will stop me :-)<br /><br />Claudia....glad it isnt' just me and the more experienced amongst you get stuck sometimes.<br /><br />Kathi....I think you'll like it...the fabric at least if not the shape :-)Tallulah Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490186975270835647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-47299210810036055632009-08-27T00:46:48.925+01:002009-08-27T00:46:48.925+01:00You are too funny!
