The 1 1/2 hour project....

That took me 5 hours!!!


This is the project that was supposed to take me 1 1/2 hours.  







I found a tutorial here, and thought, how hard can that be?  Famous last words!  I ended up spending 5 hours making this.


Admittedly, it is not exactly the same as the tutorial picture.  I made several changes, which is part of the reason it took longer.  The fact that I am not a seamstress definitely added to the time as well.  At any rate, I was rather frustrated by the end of the whole ordeal.  Oh well, at least I like the way it turned out pretty well.  Now I had better have a girl!  :)

I am intrigued to see if it really *is* a girls now LOL. My projects usually take longer than they should too. Partly due to incessant interruptions!

The only way to become a good seamstress is to do it one pattern at a time for a long time and VO-WALLA!!!! you are a seamstress.

I sure looks good to me. Hope it's a girl
