mandie_rwremember when I said hell would freeze and pigs would fly before I would handsew a chemise?.....
Ooops...It's not my fault!! My sewing room is the one room without it's own AC unit. And usually the other two more than keep it livable in there, just not as cool as everywhere else. But we're in the middle of an epic heatwave so it's oppressive in there. I gave up and just shut the door to save the AC the effort/energy cost. And I NEED A chemise for Bastille Day, you'll see it through my Chemise a la Reine. I hadn't intended to do it all in one weekend but I REALLY like hand-sewing, it's so satisfying to me to put on some Olympic trials and just zen out. Consequences being I'm sore as heck now. BUT lookie handsewn chemise! (I think the major reason I never even bothered to make one before is you put in all this work and go TA DA! and it's a big white sack!) It really needs to be ironed..but again it's 100 plus degrees today I'm not tempting fate by plugging in my iron.
