Oh ya speaking of sewing. Updates to old projects I forgot to post: new blouse & apron for the dirndl, and I added a smocked panel + some barely visible blue embroidery at the hem to Ephy’s pink dress
#sewing#dirndl#elfilin#I made the new blouse and apron like over a year ago LOL#I had originally wanted to make them out of eyelet cotton but got cotton gauze when I was buying materials because it was way cheaper#Mistake. Turns out I hate that stuff and it’s soooo bad for poofy sleeves#and I didn’t finish my edges all that great so I was scared it would disintegrate if I ever tried to wash it#so last summer I finally got some eyelet cotton and remade them#I think I never posted the finished Ephy dress because I wanted to also make a bow to go with it#haven’t done that yet though and it’s been awhile#I’m not sure how easily I’ll be able to wear the dirndl again nowadays without remaking the blouse again (for reasons)#but I did get to wear it on our honeymoon!! we went to a little German-themed touristy town and had a fancy dinner and went shopping#we also did hiking and an amusement park. and Pokémon go#and a lot of driving lol#also yes that smocking is incredibly tiny#I wasn’t sure it would even be physically possible at that size but it worked out yippee!!
