Leschi sew-along day one







This is the first post for sewing the Leschi - an excellent sewing pattern by Straight Stitch Designs.

If you need to pick up the pattern, you can find PDF or Printed Booklets here.


Please read the Introduction blog post HERE first, then come back and get sewing. I find a lot of questions emailed to me are answered in this introduction post. ;)



I made my first top in this fabric by AMH/ Conservatory collaboration. Design by Monika Forsberg . You can find it here.








For the first go I suggest using a light weight cotton, linen, linen rayon blend, or lawn. Once you've mastered the techniques sewing a rayon version is much easier. More discussion on this here.









Here is the link to the video if it won't play for you above.






There are two videos for the Leschi top, the next video will be posted next weekend (11/25/18). They will be up forever (or as long as I have this blog) - so please don't worry or rush or panic.

You can sew it at any time.

Please tag me on social media @sewhungryhippie if you make one and found my videos helpful. I will re-post your photos (with permission) to support your work and promote our community.


HAPPY SEWING!
