With very limited leftovers, I decided that I wanted to make myself a little bolero.
Butterick 6354 was easy to find (especially important these days since I have not completely recovered from my move) and even better, did not require much yardage.
I decided that I would not underline this piece with the cotton voile, which left me a dilemma . . . how to finish those raw edges.
And, once again, Hug Snug came to my rescue!
I did not have a perfect color match, but I think these tones work together nicely, and if anyone notices, they are way too close, anyway.
I just love it when a plan comes together!
really beautiful work - love the colour choice
ReplyDeleteThe bolero, atop the bow in the back, and that undulating hemline...you have created a perfection insurrection!
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing to be able to move, sew and blog. I am a bit jealous of all your talents and wish I could be as productive in knitting and sewing as you are.
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this dress and bolero jacket together. It is perfection!
