(And, I know. I know. The wrinkles. I pressed AND steamed the stubborn little thing, but after even only the slightest movement, no less than 61984685167 wrinkles would appear. #thatslinen)
To the finishing, I did a bias binding as the pattern suggests. Were I to do it this way again, I do need to be more mindful of appropriately shortening the bias tape so my edges will lie flat. Look at the armhole to really see what I mean. Mind you, it totally works as is! But, an adjustment of the bias application would make it that much closer to perfect.
The last point that I’ll make about this particular iteration of the Sorbetto is a question to all of you about marking fabric. If you look really closely at the picture below, you can see a hint of the yellow chalk I used to mark the dart legs (and appreciate how unstable of a weave this linen is!). As I think about it now, I guess I could have just used the tracing wheel without chalk paper to make an indentation in the fabric that I could then sew along, but who knows. Tips or suggestions would be most welcomed!
Spotted: Styled and ready to go, Sorbetto goes glam! Final verdict? Definitely two scoops!
P.S. To come full circle, can we just have a quick group moment together where we all just swoon over Maria and the Captain? #edelweiss
Mmmm, that was good.
