*a-hem* again

 Chiffon... again!!!! 
the horrors...

And a little itty bitty BABY hem...  Ok, SIX little itty bitty baby hems.  I decided not to skimp on time, since I do love my nieces and the dresses should be done properly.

Well, I won't be showing them at the fair or anything...  But they do deserve a good hem on the linings too.

Got six more seams done last night and then the bobbin ran low on thread.  So I spent the last bit of my night trimming off the excess for the last seam

 

The hems just need a good pressing and the final seam, then a little elastic to keep the bodice from gaping a bit and they'll be done.


And the wedding that my nieces need these for, isn't for another 1.7 weeks...  Am I on TOP of things or what?  Well, the fact of the matter is this.  I have too much else planned between now and then and this is my only time to get it done.  I'd rather not spend one of my only weeks when Maddy is home to do sewing for someone else.  So I WILL finish these today!

I just cut chiffon and press up a very narrow hem about 1/8 inch then I roll over on machine. But i hate chiffon....
