another bottle!
dear all
cant believe the year has come to its end so soon
i took a simple resolution last years ,that was noting but to craft more and more ,,i think ,i have maintained my resolution and i wish to continue the same throughout the next year..no more resolution attacks!
at least this year i have crated more posts than i could do in the last year !yay!!
the only regret is ,often when we evaluate our whole year ,we often see it on negative light..we should create a piggy bank of good experience ,at the end of the year we should break open that piggy bank to see how many good experience we have collected!
we should also try not to live a year at a time ,we should fix a goal and each year should help us to reach to that goal -see the big picture first!

few words on my self made bodice
dear all
acquiring new skills are always fun-initially the uneasy feeling makes me real crazy but then things starts to fall at its place ....
bodice making is one of those experience .in my last post i wrote about the link from where i could learn the bodice making.honestly it was not the only site i consulted ,i consulted many tutorials ,and i think its the way it should be.
finally i came and stuck myself in to that tutorial because it made sense to my beginners brain.from the brief experience i must tell you that when ever you are trying to make fitted garment like a bodice for yourself -opt for CM scale ( centimetre)
from that link .i sewed up the bodice ,it came out quite well.here i would like to share some of my experince
here how i look.
this pic was taken before i made adjustments.you can easily see extra fabric near the armholes and a loose waist.
here i would like to mention that as per the tutorial i did not keep any seam allowances,last time i made a bodice and kept seam allowances and afterwards it became quite unmanageable.it needed lots of pinning to get the perfect fit.
the tutorials of bodice drafting are the guidance ,it cant ensure the perfect fit.in orderr to get the perfect fit ,you must wear it youself or use your dummy.as per your comfort level you need to adjust it.the ultimate idea is to get the flattering look,hence we have to be flexible about where we palce out darts.different peop;e has different body -thats the bottom line.
i did not know where to find muslin-hence i used just cotton fabric which is quite thin.i would recommend to use a zipper at the back of your bodice ,it helps to fit it well.
after the adjustment is done i would come back with more experineces.
till then bah-bye!!
