I've come to the conclusion tulle is evil. Oh my gosh this stuff is so hard to work with. It may be because I have 6 plus yards to work with and I can't cut it to shorten it. I have only one of the sixteen pieces cut out right now. I sort of gave up but am going to go upstairs so I have more room to work on it in a bit. I love the feeling of tulle but I can't working with it! It's hard to pin, it keeps shifting because it's light.
Ugh...
So this is what I have right now. Tomorrow I'll start sewing when I have time. If my fiance doesn't have the day off we'll be going to zoo and maybe getting supplies for the scythe. The pattern on the far left is the lining of the skirt and the piece next to it is the skirt yoke which is just the waistline. Then one sad, lonely once piece of tulle. The pattern I'm using is for a tutu so it'll be nice and fluffy.
I have to say using Simplicity patterns is so much better and easier to use then the other two brands I have. The back is easy to read, plain and simple and they explain (almost) everything. So it's great for beginners like me. I won't be customizing this piece so it should be finished within a week, maybe sooner if I get all the tulle cut today or tomorrow.
