I actually like how the top came out. After a little taking in, a decent fit. but what the beezus was i thinking when i bought this fabric at TSWLTH? it's a cranberry colored crushed panne.

I'm looking at this as a sewing lesson, but boy, it's kinda hurtful on the eyes

Well....um...hmmmm..... At least you have a good fit on that pattern now!! So you can get some good fabric and make it again. :)

I have had fashion disasters come out of the sewing room too. Things that seemed like such a good idea at the start, then somehow went horribly, horribly wrong in process. I like to think the most important part of projects like that is learning **something** from them. ;)

And kids are so kind when they critique things aren't they? lol

Authority Critic Daughters can be wrong. (Not that they'd ever consider such a thing.) Perhaps if you pair the cranberry panne with something very low-key such as faded denim or a gentle gray, the effect will be fun. Polly
