I have just made Edwin the Elf . I know it’s last year’s project but only got to it recently. I had difficulty with his head as it lost its shape once stuffed and the eyes and ears moved out of symmetrical position. Did anyone else encounter this problem? Should I have interfaced the flesh coloured jersey to avoid stretching?

I didn't interface the head so that the fabric would actually stretch, can you mould the head back into shape?

Has anyone made the batwing dress in cotton jersey and struggled with the neckline? And would anyone agree that the pattern would be best suited to perhaps viscose jersey or polyester jersey? I’m so disappointed with the result of my attempt and I did use good quality fabric.

Thank you for your reply. I did use a cotton jersey originally…….and I think that was the problem, it was too thick! It was actually some that I bought from HYSC in the spring of this year. The dress fitted really well, I have a mannekin, make a toile and I’ve sewn for decades…….it was that pattern that fazed me. I’ve done further research on it since and sourced softy, drapier, jersey with more viscose than cotton and achieved 100% success, in fact I am getting so many orders I can’t make them fast enough. This pattern is obviously not suited to heavier cotton jerseys that are quite expensive.

I’m making a couple of Christmas stockings ,do you think I can use Debbie’s craft fleece wadding can be used in them or is it a bit to stiff. Thanks Marilyn

You can certainly use the fleece! I don't think it will be too stiff...
