Zero Posted December 31, 2012 http://fenrirsworkshop.blogspot.com/ I have not done anything in some time on my blog. But I have tutorials on most of Jadepixels patterns if you need some help understanding how it all goes together. The Miko outfit is a good starter. It is just straight cuts. A helpful tip go on and get three yards of white cloth. You can use it for testing and lineing the outfits you make. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is fantastic information, I love your little stories in your tutorials too. I'll definitely refer back to it once I'm ready to sew! I've got a lot of pieces cut out and pinned down but I've never had the courage to bring the beast out... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lingling Posted February 1, 2013 i was sourcing for a Singer brand sewing machine last year however i could not find it in any electrical appliances store,in the end i went for another brand. somehow i still could not sew well with the sewing machine,my girls clothes are still hand sew till now.... in the end its behind my DD girls collecting dust now...LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nelly19 Posted February 1, 2013 To tell the truth I still don't know how to sew but I try lol, hand sewing just doesn't finish well for me so I grabbed a machine and try as much as I can I got so e nice things made too and I still have ways to go!
