Sewing My Stash | McCall's 5244
It’s about that time! Many have been asking, “When is the next Sew Along?” Today is the DAY! The McCall’s 8138 Sew Along is for those who would like to sew this cute Knit, Fit & Flare Dress with a little assistance. The exposed zipper is enough to make most beginners skip the pattern all together. But don’t be too fast to walk away. I’ve got you covered with step-by-step directions for installing that zipper.
If you missed the Pattern Review that I posted to my YouTube channel about this dress, I recommend watching that video first (link below my signature). That’s where I give you all the information about the pattern to help you prepare in advance. Then you can join the Sew Along. This tutorial assumes you already have basic sewing skills. If you have not learned to sew yet, I highly recommend you join the waitlist for my New Beginners Sewing Course.
When I made this dress the first time, I loved it so much that I knew it would be a repeat sewing project. Now that I’ve sewn it a second time, I must make another one in a print fabric.
I styled it with a hat from my collection and a pair of high heel pumps. It would look just as amazing as the first dress with all the same styling options. Both dresses will get lots of wear. I’ve already worn the black version about three times. I cut the beige dress one size smaller and I like the fit better in the armhole area.

State of Crypto 1.) Peer scoring. We ask the experts and run surveys asking other influencers, founders, and investors who ranks at the top of their list. Bitcoin gets all the headlines when people talk about cryptocurrencies, but there are literally thousands of other options when it comes to these digital currencies. In fact, cryptos that aren’t Bitcoin are usually considered an “also ran” – what are called “altcoins,” or alternatives to Bitcoin. So we developed Multibook, a pioneering new crypto trading tool that provides you with a consolidated order book. Available as an exclusive add-on to Bookmap, it helps you make better, more accurate decisions for day trading crypto. Crypto Long & Short A double top is a bearish reversal pattern that traders use to highlight trend reversals. The price forms a peak and retrace back to a level of support. It will then climb up once again before reversing back more permanently against the prevailing trend. A double top is a bearish pattern as it signifies the end of an uptrend and a shift towards a downtrend.

A cryptocurrency broker offers derivatives products to traders, where traders enter contracts to speculate on the price of digital currency. Cryptocurrency derivatives include crypto options, crypto futures, and crypto CFDs. When trading with a crypto broker, you do not own the asset itself, only the right to buy or sell the underlying contract as the prices change. If tax reporting is important to you when shopping for a new exchange, search “crypto taxes” on its website or contact customer service to ask when and if tax forms will be sent to you. For example, if you earned more than $600 in crypto income during the year, Gemini will issue you a Form 1099-MISC. You can also download your Form 1099-MISC (or confirm you did not receive one) in the “Statements and History” section on the “Account” page on the Gemini website or mobile app.

The dress is really pretty but, not really my style.
I like the yellow bubble gauze dress and plan to make it. I am an intermediate sewer but haven’t sewn in awhile. You have inspired me to get back into it.
I plan to make the zipper dress also!
Awesome. I like zippers and buttons on dresses. Like the style.
It’s pretty but not my style.
You yourself are quite the inspiration and you look absolutely amazing! I am going to buy this one today.
Awesome, Miriam! Have fun sewing your dress.
Where can I see you in the black dress?
