Update on Nightgown
I started it last night. I really like this pattern because its really easy. I got most of the body done. I did run into a couple small problems though. I found out I didn't buy enough fabric for the ruffles on the bottom. No worries & can buy some more. Also I sewed the front & back & realized I forgot to put in the line of elastic on the back. Oops! It was ok because I was able to add it afterwards. After putting on my dressform I noticed that its really long (lower calf-it's supposed to go to my knees). I'm going to have to cut off some of the bottom. I'm glad this issues were minor & could be remedied easily. Tonight I plan to finish it by adding the elastic to the front & back neckline, adding the cap sleeves & shortening the length. I will have to add the ruffles on at a later date. I will probably be able to wear it this weekend. It will be comfortable because I chose 100% white cotton. It feels so good to the touch. For anyone needing a cute girly nightgown, I recommend this pattern. It's really easy & can be done in a day. Once I'm done I'll post pics.
