It's adorable.
But it's not yet wearable.
Do you know why?
The front "point" is way too far over toward my arms. I need to move it over toward my center, and it needs some armhole scooping if I'm going to keep the strap length the same. The FOE is irritating my skin at the point, because of the strap placement and strap length, I'm pretty sure.
Above I used chalk to draw the line where I'm going to do some muslin surgery. I think I can make this a wearable muslin.
Yes, this pattern is for knits and it has darts! I know! and a center back seam! I know!
I'm going to fix that swayback too... (and yes, I bought wonder clips. I know! I read a post about the pros/cons of wonder clips and binder clips. I decided to give wonder clips a try).
My black eyed susans.
My female pumpkin flower never opened and now the baby pumpkin is shriveling up.
Not a good year for pumpkins in my backyard. Last year was a miracle and I enjoyed every minute of being a pumpkin mama.
It's still summer!!
Be well!
I hope you can make that a wearable muslin because it's adorable. Sad to hear about your pumpkin! Your black eyed susans are looking good though. That's why I grow flowers and not veggies!
ReplyDeleteYour tank is so pretty and hope you can tweak
ReplyDeleteLast picture - I need these.
ReplyDeleteHad a flip-flop blow-out at the fair yesterday.
I had a volunteer Jack-be-little pumpkin grow out of the compost pile with about ten tiny jacks for halloween.
