Pintucks / Ironing On Seersucker Fabric?

Good advice from Diba! Definitely iron it as a normal cotton, and I think pintucks would look lovely in the seersucker but agree at trying a sample to see how you feel about it first

Think Pink July ‘26

I was so sorry to miss this morning Hayley. I got a call a couple of days ago to go into hospital for procedure yesterday. See you next week though.

It wasn't too difficult, think it would have been easier if I had the woven swim elastic. Didn't like using the clear stuff

Pintucks / Ironing On Seersucker Fabric?

It really depends. If your pintucks match up with the paving of the seersucker I think it would be a really nice effect. But the tucks may fight with the seersucker making puckers and waves. I would definitely do a sample piece of the tucks to see...

One Sewing Tool You Wish You'd Bought Sooner

My lovely little seam gauge that I bought in Busy Pins and Needles in Aberdare in Wales when I crossed the Channel to visit my Sister last month. Such a little thing but it does make life so much easier. And I could only find lumps of metal up...

You look adorable! What a lovely fit and pattern. I especially like how the bra part looks supportive. I assumed at over sixty I would always have to wear a one-piece; but I am tall and hate the way it feels on my stomach! You gave me inspiration...
