I find that so frustrating, when I work on a sewing project ends up in the wadder pile. I hate it even more when it's because of a fabric and pattern mismatch, this is what happens to me all the time. Mine is halfway done, I put it aside because I got confused when I got to the part where you attach the neckband and collar. I don't think I'll bother trying finishing it,even if I really like the look, I saw someone's version on a blog, but I've completely lost interest in it! Maybe when I get more practice, I'll try it again!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-75842522292546129272009-06-13T07:46:33.667-05:002009-06-13T07:46:33.667-05:00All three of my daughters have a version of the Ne...All three of my daughters have a version of the New Look pattern and they all turned out cute. Maybe you used to big of a size? The top has zero ease so it should be very fitted. I'm sorry you had so many wadders. Hopefully next one will be a winner.BConkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12567728669689070443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-11039532146334792752009-06-13T07:27:26.154-05:002009-06-13T07:27:26.154-05:00You have an award. go to my blog to see what it i...You have an award. go to my blog to see what it is.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622769905155059570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-33886548231073912342009-06-12T20:39:45.776-05:002009-06-12T20:39:45.776-05:00That's a bummer.
