Hi there!  Awesome, awesome videos!  I have one quick question, think that it is chapter 62 in the panel dress tutorial.  After I have sewn, by machine, the neckline, I am a little bit lost on the understitching, next step.  Am I correct in thinking that I sew, by machine, 1 cm down from the seam, on the facing side, in order to tack down the seam allowances and stop the facing from riding up?

many thanks!

Dear ros_b,

Thanks so much for the kind words. Yes you are correct, the only thing is that you need to sew 1 mm down from the seam not 1 cm as you stated. 

Happy sewing,

Nehzat

Perfect! Thanks!

What a nice difference that added touch made - glad that you caught me before I made a big old line of stiches 1 cm instead of 1 mm!
