Has anyone used this fabric and can show me their makes please?
I really want to make something but it’s kinda sheer and I really don’t want to line it as I want to make a summer garment and not sure about another layer.
I had the pastel colour way too and made an elodie wrap dress which I can see the facing through and it really bothers me 😩
At this point I may just make pjs 😵💫
Is this the Crafty Pie viscose fabric?
I made a Tilly and the buttons Nell blouse in the pastel and love it! I thought I had a photo somewhere but can’t find it now!! That also has a facing but I didn’t have any issues with it showing through.
Yes it is a crafty pie viscose, I’d quite like a blouse or a dress but I think it would be a bit see through
You can see my pastel one on my YouTube video here - I'm sorry yours didn't turn out the way you wanted, I do have a few viscose tops where I can see the facing, or at least there is a slight change of colour because of it... but I tend to just wear them anyway!
I did make a mistake once though and used the wrong colour overlocker thread on the inside which included a neck facing and that really was too much!
In this weather, some of my favourite things to wear are sheer shirts or similar, over a sleeveless top. I think this would look fabulous, as you could wear almost any colour camisole / shell top underneath, or even a sleeveless dress.
As I have posted about the Ready to Sew kimono jacket many times, I'll us this as an example: https://sewingpatterns.com/collections/park-bench/products/park-bench-pbp14
I have made this many times, and as the 'facing' is actually the front band, it really works well. I wore one made in a bronze coloured organza, over an ivory dress, to a wedding. I really am awful at photos, I seem to have deleted all the ones of that wedding (?how?!)
I used french seams for that one, but have later used an overlocker. I also reduced the width of the front band.
