I know, I know...what the heck am I doing here...posting about sewing...when I need to be packing for Nicaragua and cutting up sheets for the rag rug project. To be honest, I haven't even begun to pack. But shhhh! Don't tell anyone.
But quickly, I had to share the shirt I made a week or so ago after seeing this photo from Stefani. Isn't it nice to have friends to blame for your late night obsessive sewing and subsequent sleepy mornings? I omitted the elastic around the arms and just hemmed them. Elastic is not very becoming to ever increasingly chubby arms. *note to self...three fewer Pepridge Farm Chesapeake cookies next time. I think the next one will have even shorter sleeves-little caps. But I am so proud of myself ... I MADE A SHIRT!!! (Oh, and that pretty little necklace...that was all Stef's fault too. It was just too perfect with the neckline of the shirt not to get one.)
In the description of her photo over on flickr, she mentioned there needed to be a 12 step program for the Built By Wendy, Simplicity 3835. She was right.
