The one and only problem I had, and it was my own fault. I overlocked the hem, then used a twin needle to top stitch the hem (too lazy to change the thread on my Janome cover-pro). This was a big mistake...Firstly I should not have tried to twin needle stitch over an overlocked edge...The whole hem had major tunnelling. Actually I didn't know why I did this because usually I just sew without overlocking the edge if I'm using a twin needle.
Lesson learnt...I re-did the hem with the cover-stitch machine and it turned out perfect.
 |
| Unpicking started off well, I use cheap snips to do this...Though in the end I cut the hem off and started again. |
 |
| The cover stitching was perfect, no missed stitches. I used my 'Humper Jumper' to go over the seams. |
 |
| Vogue 8634 Size: M. Easy sew a little big fitting wise, but I would definitely sew this top again. |
 |
| Long top made to be worn with tights...not over this A frame skirt. I had a reluctant model who didn't want to change into tights for the pic. |
 |
| It looks lovely and warm for winter but I think I could have made it slightly more fitted... |
 |
| Side view... |
 |
| The fitting of this top is a bit big because my model had 2 layers of clothing underneath when I did the fitting so now it looks slightly loose! |
