Ruching

Howie and I are settled again and I have a sewing studio where I can be creative. My  south facing window allows plenty of sunlight and inspiration.

Have you ever made ruching? It is such a fun addition to a colonial dress. Today I am sewing up 2" and 4" strips of ruching. The ruffly piles will look beautiful on a robe a'la polonaise designed for a garden wedding.

  1. Hello. I came across your this post and photo for rucking. I am in the midst of sewing a colonial dress and would love to use this technique. Could you recommend any tutorials on how to do this? Thank you!
