Close counts, right? The jacket is as done as I can get it for now because my stash let me down. I know - horrors!! I need four big dome fasteners (only have 2) and I was sure, in all the buttons I have, there would be four big red buttons. Sadly no. So, I'm calling the jacket done - until I can get to Fabricland to get what I need to totally finish it. You'll have to use your imagination and pretend to see four large red buttons on the front where the pins are.
And....wonder of wonders! It fits!!
(well, the sleeves and the body could have been
a wee bit longer, but it's okay)
- If you've discovered the many uses for beeswax wraps, perhaps you'd like to try making your own from the tutorial HERE.
- If we still had a garden I'd like THESE.
- Aren't THESE pretty? I can think of lots of uses for them.
- Ummmmmm - WHY???
- Some of THESE are incredible!
Today's quote..."Be nice to crafters. We have enough creativity to make your death look like an accident and due to a lifetime of hot glue gun burns, we leave no fingerprints"
i'm gonna show that WHY to Melissa - i think she would like it ... as for why? well, young people seem to like clothes that make not much sense - my grandson relearned how to crochet (we taught him when he was in elementary school) so he can make men's granny square shorts (i think they look like a grown man who forgot to leave the afghan on the couch) for himself and his buddies...
ReplyDeleteyour jacket looks great!!!
Granny square shorts - does he not realize what happens if they get wet?? It's like the women's bikini knit/crochet tops - again, what happens when they get wet?
