Scary now to to go for the lapped version. :)Preethi N Jhttp://widicreations.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817276844735401269.post-41992896325682446262013-10-28T11:39:49.428+01:002013-10-28T11:39:49.428+01:00Looks like the zipper opening would have benefitte...Looks like the zipper opening would have benefitted from some stay tape to stop it getting wobbly. I don't think finishing the seam below it first makes much difference - that's what I did recently for my first lapped zip an it was okay. I also wonder if the fact that you used an invisible zipper made a difference in how it sits?Sophie-Leehttp://tworandomwords.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817276844735401269.post-59469338000789613332013-09-13T15:04:34.033+02:002013-09-13T15:04:34.033+02:00Thanks for the compliment Isabela!Thanks for the compliment Isabela!Kimhttp://Revesmecanique.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817276844735401269.post-84655718205482415212013-09-11T14:50:43.140+02:002013-09-11T14:50:43.140+02:00The dress looks really good.

But this zipper was soo horrible, I wouldn't have worn it otherwise. And since I already have another garment on my blog that needed some alterations, I figured I'd fix it first before posting another garment I still had to work on :) Blog pressure haha!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08514435572278502420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817276844735401269.post-14721563484583789302013-07-04T22:42:53.729+02:002013-07-04T22:42:53.729+02:00Thanks Sophie!Thanks Sophie!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08514435572278502420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817276844735401269.post-38247568713994622462013-07-04T22:41:55.753+02:002013-07-04T22:41:55.753+02:00Thanks!

Yes, he's feeling much better now, especially because he gets his antibiotics twice a day in a small bit of sausage :) Aahh would be so cool if you were a sewing-vet too, but I think that it is a lot more difficult getting into vet school in the us than in the netherlands.. <br />Wow, two new turtles!

But I'm sure you're glad you did. I love how this dress turned out. And that fabric is gorgeous. Love the little dots on it.
