Mademoiselle Marionette 2018 Part 11

I am finally moving on to the Front of the Marionette.

Checking Width

I have now found my mislaid material and having selected a piece I checked the width.

Hem Front Piece

I then hemmed the Front piece on three sides.

Neck Sewn Shoulder Pinned

After hemming I centred the material and sewed at the Neck of the Marionette. I then pinned one of the Shoulders ready for sewing.

Sewn Across Shoulders

 

I sewed across both of the Shoulders. This would stop the material shifting when I move on to the Sides

Checking Width Stuffed

I pinned the Sides and stuffed the Marionette. That way I could check if I need to attach Side Pieces. I naturally took the stuffing out again before sewing.

Pinned at Waist

After I had sewn the Sides I re-stuffed the Body. As I had run out of stuffing I decided rather than take it out again I would pin the Marionette at the waist. That way the stuffing would not fall out.

Marionette Almost Stuffed

I have now got some more stuffing and therefore can continue. I carry on stuffing the Marionette until it is ALMOST FULL! Under no circumstances fill it completely as this will hinder a future point. Oh and yes I do realise that this photograph looks somewhat indelicate J

Marionette Completely Stuffed

After ALMOST filling the Marionette I then pull the rest of the Front Piece material and sew underneath. That completes this section.
