Sewing Success (Sort of)

 
Sewing...so fun! I used the pattern above, but because I monkeyed around with the waist--I deliberately changed the waistband--somehow mine turned out less full. Darn. It's still kinda cute, though; the pocket detail is nice (it doesn't show up in the photo above, but it's there).

Don't you love descriptions like, "You can't really see it, but it's there--trust me, it's cute!" and "I didn't follow the directions, but it still turned out fine--really, though you can't tell in the photo..."). Le sigh. It was a lot of fun to make it, in any case!

I have yet to find sewing to be fun. Even making a simple pillow makes me go crazy. I think you did a fine job and it does look cute!!

You crack me up (every time)!
A. You own and use a sewing machine!
B. The pattern and fabric you chose is wonderful!
C. It is cute! Actually I like the less full version you came up with
D. You think sewing is fun...
E. Can I send you my things that have needed mending for the last two years cause I rather spend the money on postage than do it myself.

Now I'm cracking myself up!
