My first top and first muslin...I had an old sheet that I used to make this muslin. I am a little embarrassed to use an old sheet but at the same time feeling very thrifty and satisfied. I would recommend this pattern for it's ease of use, clear directions and fabulous fit. Now I can go out with confidence and purchase pretty fabric. My daughters like the top too, but being teenagers I will probably make them the dress.
Which brings me to a conversation with dd#3. I like making bread and quilts. DD#3 said to me the other day,"I wish you were to the type of mom, you know, the kind that makes pastries and clothes, not bread and quilts." Well maybe she is right. I know she appreciates the bread and quilts I make but it made me laugh. Maybe it is time to shift a little and try new things. I like looking at Sew Weekly's blog so maybe I will try a few dresses and see if I have success. I have always wanted to make croissants....is that a pastry?
I will report back later
