I made “T-Shirt” for bjd today, and got ideas about finishing the body hole.
- I just did hemming with straight stitch. It’s a little bit ‘curly’. Just a very little bit. Once again, it can be very curly with other stretch fabric.
2. I use a strap, cut from the same fabric. Sew it on the body hole.
It looks neater. yet, it doesn’t look like ‘real common T-Shirt‘. It’s ok though as we just use regular sewing machine. We can also do this finishing when we make sweater.
Do we have to have stretch fabric sewing machine? Nope. I think, if we produce small amounts or just for our own doll, we don’t need to buy that kind of sewing machine, especially in this case, it’s “just” a doll clothes. Unless, we also need it for produce human t-shirt in industrial scale amount, yes the machine is a must-have.
