Your fabrics are really pretty, but I'm looking forward to seeing the screen printed one. I've never done that before either.Sherrilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03682899485401222209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703415315027612176.post-46495768942900780552012-06-14T11:29:28.950-04:002012-06-14T11:29:28.950-04:00The tops look great, Dixie!

To me it's just an invitation to play! If it will accept dye (like your viscose!) I'll dye it or even go at it with fabric-paint.Louisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685532773952211627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703415315027612176.post-87629814806607189842012-06-13T21:14:17.263-04:002012-06-13T21:14:17.263-04:00Thanks, Mary.

Then I topstitched it and trimmed close to the stitching. I did use the serger to finish the neckband on the one that's currently in progress, and it makes a good looking finish, for sure.Dixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712003004658269721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703415315027612176.post-17146894194359348382012-06-13T21:09:49.914-04:002012-06-13T21:09:49.914-04:00Thank you, Andrea.
