Buttonholes and eyelet tutorial...


I just discovered this tutorial, this is an area that I need to improve on, and this explains it better than any I've ever seen.
It has plenty of photos, which is good. I always need to know how it's supposed to look, to explain sewing in just words is so confusing.
Anyway: the link to the wonderful tutorial:

There is a translate feature on this site (yay).

Sleeveless Blouse/simplicity pattern 2896

A closeup of the inside: a quality garment. I love the seam binding on the facing.
This is such a great fabric choice for this garment. I'm thinking about making this in several different fabrics and will post them as completed.

I need to hit ebay and get this pattern. I wouldn't normally 'go' for this pattern, but that blouse has totally sold me on this style.
I like the idea of doing the trousers up in some nice fabric and using them to sleep in or to do yoga. They look comfortable.
I really like the dress too. Elegant. I love sleeveless dresses, and intend to make up a bunch to wear this summer.
