Yesterday's sewing, after putting on the ruffle. Tacked the seam allowance of the upper section around the seam allowance of the new ruffle. It did take all evening so I went to bed instead of machine topstitching it yesterday, so that'll be on on the gay agenda today. After that, making the final hem ruffle and hemming it!

This is a very durable and reasonably easy way to finish a petticoat seam also, it's just very much not fast! If the fabric was a bit sturdier I could have tried my luck with a presser foot that automatically did a flat felled seam all in one go, but it certainly was not going to work out in this fabric.

Trying to take a quick photo of what the skirt sans the final ruffle looks like, but then Karvinen decides it's Karvinen time.
