Mar. 13th, 2010 11:48 pmHAI HAI I SEWED SOMETHING
WOW
I KNOW
I also have received a year of paid LJ time, which is super-awesome (now I get to play with more userpics, woo!) and now I am doubly resolved to someday drive south (a car of any sort would be helpful in doing this, but I'm working on it!) and meet all you East Coast costumers that I am in awe of but someday will go to SOME EVENT with you all! (Ummm....when I started out, that was a coherent sentence. Promise. It's attempting to thank the person who gave me the paid time. Heh. I can't string words together today, apparently.)
Back to the I Sewed thang. Okay, so it's not really exciting...it's an apron. But it's something! And it's something that needed to be finished, because it's part of my friend A's wedding shower gift. Which is next weekend. Oy. And I swear an apron isn't a stupid gift, for her. (It would be a stupid gift for me, because I am not at home in the kitchen. But this apron's pretty cute, so I kind of want one anyway. Hey, I make cookies. Sometimes.)
Yes, the print is kinda obnoxious, but it's very A...she loves rainbow things. I used a McCall's pattern...which one? Ummm...*goes and looks it up* M5825. (For future reference...in case I ever lose it? I don't know.) Easy to put together, and I was even smart and practiced making the buttonhole on a scrap before I put it on the real straps. *slow clap*
