Does anyone have tips for gathering the wide straps? I managed to sew along just fine, but literally none of my gathering would stay on the wide strap version. Iβd gather, and in the time between pinning and when I went to attach, all of the gathering had fallen out. Multiple times. I feel like Iβve missed something. But I am a being of chaos so I finished the dress sans gathers. It does look super cute without it, but the not knowing is maddening. Thanks in advance from this beginner!
Hi there, you mentioned linking us to the fusible interfacing on the roll but I don't see a link in the pattern instructions or on youtube. I'm having trouble finding this product, can you please point me to it?
