between boring and cool

the difference is more work.worthwhile though.

this is medium to light felt, no facings . but the raw edge looks kind of blah so i am edge stitching the neck and bottom.it's going to take me longer than planned and the stitching needs to be even.concentration, a masking tape guide and hitting the pedal lightly. it is going to look good after all.

on altering

same pattern, this time it's going to be a sleeved top. the pattern comes with sleeves, good thing because i do not feel like dealing with drafting sleeves and adjusting armscyes at the moment. still have a half concocted pattern to finish.

the only hack is to raise the neckline and draft the collar which is going to be stand up -scroll to the bottom to see the drafting instructions.

the muslin. as the rest has been tried i just needed to check the neckline. think it still needs a bit of work.

the fabric.medium weight wool felt. i don't know what's with me and this color.it's like a new me.
