I am not sure why, perhaps I just have too many things on my list of things to make to think about adding yet another creation.

If it makes you feel any better, I did the exact same thing on the last project I made. I didn't bother with a muslin and it turned out super tight (though I had made it before with no issues). I'm debating if I should photograph it as-is or try to lose some weight first, ha ha!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05169490763129130821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1921233768935126478.post-73751256767729629982013-12-24T16:37:46.785+13:002013-12-24T16:37:46.785+13:00I love it!!
