Bar Tack Tales.

Nine days until Breast In Show opens. Five until Hay Fever closes. Next Monday as we're striking HF, BiS begins Tech with First Dress. There is not a lot of time./It's going to be fine.

 

Tonight's endeavours featuring my all-time favourite machine stitch: 

Introducing ...

that little squiggle of pink thread, right there?

The humble yet most excellent Bar Tack.

(We love the Bar Tack almost as much as
we love the Zigzag & that's saying something.)

 I was introduced to Bar Tack whilst first working on Producers.
It's certainly a stitch worth getting excited over as it's inherently useful
for stabilising & securing fabrics, just catching the end of an overlap. Wonderful.

I've also been learning the maths of men's suit sizing!

Waist measurement of Pants + 6 inches 

= Chest measurement of Suit Jacket. 

  

Ish.

Now to size every suit that's over in Stock. This could take a while.
