Ta-dah!
There's still some finishing touches to add but I love the twilly, I just need to work out how to style it past using it as a cumberbund (which I love). I need to take the skirt in at the waist, but love the potential. I bought the dress secondhand about a year ago, I adored the print but the dress turned up with a weird unexpected ballon shape, the neck and arms were too tight, and not the length I'd thought it was. A twilly seems like a small project but the idea of the twilly means you have to think about the bigger project which is brilliant.
Ta-dah!

@Margaret Thomson Thank you! 🥰. I attached the tails separately by leaving a gap in the seam of the wide section (right sides together) and threading the tails through to each end of the wide section and machine stitching. I trimmed off some of the bulk where the tails joined the wide belt. I then pulled everything through the gap and slip stitched it closed. Ta-dah!

It does say its 'live' now, but I'm wondering if the calendar on here hasn't accounted for the time correctly.

WELCOME TO CONVERTED CLASSROOM
Hi there! I'm so excited to see you here, and I'm a little nervous, to be honest!!! This is a brand new adventure for me too, and I'm so happy I've got you guys alongside to help me make these game-changing classes as fantastic as I possibly can. As you may have gathered, I have rather high standards (sometimes to a fault! I call my inner perfectionist "Pricilla") - and I cannot help but put everything I've got into everything I do. These classes will be the most important thing I've ever created as they have enormous potential to impact people's behaviour around clothing consumption. I've always found it so ironic that the unique clothes we all want, can be created through us learning a skill - spending huge amounts is NOT necessary! You'll see... It would be so cool if everyone introduced themselves as a community post!! Scarlett and I are dying to meet you all, and hear about where you're at in your sewing journey at the moment (Scarlett is my Right Hand Woman - and Editor extraordinaire btw!). One last thing - in the final version of Conversion Classroom, the videos will be broken down into sections that will be easier to navigate (I PROMISE), but for this one, the sections are all in one video - so after you watched the first section, you're going to need to take a big break to find a garment to convert, and plan your twilly dimensions, etc. All of this will be clear when you watch the video, but I thought I'd flag it up for extra clarification! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for watching this (and bearing with me!), I am indescribably appreciative of your time and attention. (You REALLY are at the leading edge of a fashion changing movement!). Lots of love, Kate xxx
