#gypsumskirt — Public Fediverse posts

Both #SewLiberated and #HelensCloset are excellent in the #pockets department! I made the Sew Liberated #StudioTunic, their version of the pinafore/tunic. It's kind of great but I'm really not a tunic person. Trying to figure out how to hack it into a dress but I think that's beyond my current pattern drafting skills. Also, the #pockets on this and the #GypsumSkirt are too low for safely carrying a phone. Really trying to figure out the #pocket sweet spot!

@sewing MeMadeMay2023 #Sewing day at the library #makerspace and I was reunited with my selfie stick. #MossJacket and #GypsumSkirt made with thrifted sheets and pockets from cotton purchased in Asia. The #DawsonTop was made with thrifted cotton jersey. Nothing is an exact match but it works for me. #ItHasPockets #pockets #sewing

@sewing Fuzzy photo of #MeMadeMay2023 Make 2 of #AshtonTop and make 1 of #GypsumSkirt I’m pretty happy with how both of these worked out. Made with more thrifted sheets and Japanese cotton for the skirt’s pockets. #ItHasPockets #pockets #sewing

#MeMadeMay2023 #DawsonTop with #GypsumSkirt Top was just finished yesterday with thrifted cotton jersey. Collar was put in backwards so it had to be turned and sewed. Great pattern! Skirt was made from a sheet and pockets were from Japanese cotton. #sewing #ItHasPockets

That's a great skirt, especially the huge patch pocket! I got #TheActOfSewing and find it to be excellent reading to reinforce all of the little steps that make up a successful #sewing project, including #pockets.
I recently finished a #GypsumSkirt from #sewLiberated and the pockets are similarly generous. After buying a LARGE quantity of thrifted fabric, I think I'll make another one soon.

Finally!! The day that I've awaited for well over 2 years has arrived. I was able to use the #makerspace #serger, Serge Tankian! Hooray for #SystemOfADown and for the #EdmontonPublicLibrary for making this day a reality. Sadly, I was absolutely absorbed in trying to sew these fully enclosed seams on my #GypsumSkirt so I didn't even play around with the serger today. However, I have multiple knit projects in the queue right now with fabric and patterns, so I'll get onto it before long.

Busy 3 days of #sewing: a full sew-day Friday, sewing class Saturday, and library #Makerspace today. Started a new #GypsumSkirt by #SewLiberated using a deep green skirt and #Sevenberries Japanese dragonfly print for waistband, side scoop pockets.
Today: nearly finished the #RibbonSkirt I've been working on for months. Just need to sew up waistband and finish off the connection between the main skirt body and the bottom frill. Large sewing area in my b/r is nearly set up for business.
