I'm almost done!!!...it just needs two shoulder buttons and snaps!!! I've done buttons and snaps, so should be a piece of cake! Well, I should have said I'd have it done in a snap!!! (Pun intended)
I used the cheapest fabric I bought for this first trial run, but have three more fabrics left for the next project. I'm already itching to go and make another one!
I did take pictures as I went along and made notes on "Lessons Learned." I plan on doing a detailed post to walk through the sewing process. It was amazingly more simple (but not easy) than I thought it would be! I only had a few "oh crap" moments... the first was in the first 5 minutes. I have to admit that the little sewing class I took last year was helpful in terms of trying to follow a pattern. Patterns are DEFINITELY not dummy-proof though. I think the teacher from whatever class it was when we had to write a "How-To" would certainly find error in how pattern directions are written.
So, I have to say I'm pretty happy about going from this...
To this...
in just a few hours!
well done!
