The only time I've ever sewed anything that way (wedding dress) I did as you suggested and both felt my way along the thread tracing and turned the fabric a lot to make sure the seams were lining up. It took ages but the fit result was definitely worth it.<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing how the dress turns out :-)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15101163254450460426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7351864927910092883.post-47055824986574158902009-09-09T12:36:00.267-07:002009-09-09T12:36:00.267-07:00oh wow - what a lot of work preparing that dress f...oh wow - what a lot of work preparing that dress for sewing - sounds like tricky fabric to work with too - I can't offer any advice - this is definitely outside my realm of sewing experience. I have read about people tracing seams instead of using a standard seam allowance for sewing but I could never understand why. <br /><br />It will be a beautiful LBD by the time you've finished though - of that I feel confident!Mary Nannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02577449410716501317noreply@blogger.com
