I appreciate the step by step instructions you give of your projects. The colours of your apron look very nice,and it apron fits you perfectly. Without clothes underneath, the apron looks like a summer dress. I hope you start posting again. Happy New year! I’m glad you are back.

]]> Comment on Previous Slipcover Work - Part II by mgbacke http://mostlysewing.lucidway.org/2006/06/14/previous-slipcover-work-part-ii/#comment-31482 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 16:50:22 +0000 http://mostlysewing.lucidway.org/2006/06/14/previous-slipcover-work-part-ii/#comment-31482 Hi Sharon! I did use my serger to finish all the raw edges, mostly just because I think it looks neater. I didn't really plan to ever wash the slipcover myself, just send it to the cleaners when necessary. Like most decorator fabrics I didn't think this one would stand up very well to washing. I love the idea of making wash and wear slipcovers, most likely in some kind of heavy off white material, like duck or denim. In this case I would certainly prewash the material and finish edges. Good luck with your project and thanks for stopping by! Lupe Hi Sharon!

Your excellent photos have inspired me to use the bolts of fabric that have been waiting! I need a new not too expensive sewing machine$250 range. Did you wash the fabric first? Did you finish raw edges so they don't fray when washed? I have been sitting on the fence wanting to make slip covers.
