    Zero! Thank you so much! I can't thank you enough, that's a really good idea and a really cute illustration you gave me Happy
    Thankfully I've let out the pleats and it's seeming to work fine...the only problem that might come up is the zipper being ruffled when I insert it but I'll work it out when that comes
    Thanks again ^^

    ARGH I had exactly the same thing...it's called Hook Timing Fix and here's a video on how to fix it...my dad spent forever fixing it, but in the end we bought a new machine for my birthday + Christmas present this year

    She looks amazing! I think that out of my family, I am the most creative one, but the rest of my brothers and sisters are all academic Happy so I'm classed as the black sheep of the family aha

    Ooh thanks Robyn A! I had a look, their revision sources seem fairly good. There's a lot of videos though xD
    ...well, at least that's better than a lot of writing....

    Ah, I'm going to try and take out the pleats a little around the skirt, and make them more shallow. This should *hopefully* add a little bit more on each side! Wish me luck!

    (but Zero W. I'm still keen on hearing your ideas if you're willing to share) ^^

    hey Zero W.... yeah the problem is the fact that it's not fitting around her waist. Like, the bodice is fine, but I literally have to pull it *so* tight around her waist and she basically can't breathe :/
    Please!! Tell me any idea you have, I'm so desperate because I need it done before Friday and I have limited time due to exams too D;

    Thanks PinkWeeds....the dress is this paper pattern http://www.simplicitynewlook.com/1420/ and dress C, the bodice has been attached to the waistband and there's no seam allowance in the waistband because it's pleated horizontally...sorry I should have made that clear :/
    ARRGHHH panic!!

    I'm making a prom dress for my sister and I'm nearly done....all I need to do now is put the zip in and hem the bottom of it. However, the dress seems not to fit now (it fitted before, and I haven't cut it at all). I will be putting an invisible zip in, but I can't actually squeeze the dress onto her....
    her prom thingy is o Friday, so I really need your advice!
    Thanks xxx

    Hey guys,
    I'm doing my GCSE mocks at the moment (and very soon I'll be doing the real thing). I basically suck at science, and my teacher told me about a guy on YouTube (called myGCSEscience). So I looked at his videos on P1 yesterday and they were amazing....
    only a slight problem though, he's made most of his videos private now, so we have to pay to view them!!
    Has anyone got any good revision sources for a visual learner like me?
    Thanks so much
    Steph xxx

    Lots of my upcycling projects have turned into disasters pretty quickly! I usually throw them into the bottom of a cupboard before anyone else can see them, in the hope of making them amazing one day

    (that's never gonna happen)
