Sewing









My sewing machine and I have started to get along a little better recently. When I first got it I had a hard time with the tension and whatnot so most of the things I made looked like crap. I stumbled upon http://indietutes.blogspot.com/2007/07/peasant-blouse.html this tutorial, I thought I'd give it a shot. The first shirt I started on made me SO MAD. I couldnt figure out how to put the back piece on and apparently I'm an idiot because I asked Patrick and he figured it out right away. Anyways, I found this stretchy material shoved in the bottom of my fabric box and thought it'd make a cute shirt. I have no clue what its called or even if its suitable for clothing but whatever I used it anyways and it turned out cute! I'm pretty happy with it. I didnt get around to putting elastic in the arms, I'll do that later. And dont mind my wonky lines, I still cant sew straight and making a casing for the elastic was a pain in my ass. Seriously.
I hope everyone has a fantastic Thanksgiving!! I plan on gaining a few more pounds tomorrow ha.
