I thought I was done

I really did.



After maybe a month or more and half a zillion attempts, I thought she was super duper ready to share,

But that anal gene tells that the almost finished dress needs one final tweak, (and different binding). So I'll cut out another dress and lining, which means I have to cut out and sew and french knot all those mushrooms (again) .


and just when you don't need it - I had an idea



Which led to another idea ,which means everything will take a bit longer than I first thought. So finished once again turns out to be a relative term.


yeah Ok... and she still had a pin in her brain -obviously I was going to deal with that .

  15. She'd probably stop complaining about the dress if she didn't have a headache from that pin!

  16. Save the mushrooms! They'll be cute in a mug mat or pot holder or tiny quilt to hang on the wall. Love the carrot and berry! Your french knots don't blob the way mine do - I'm jealous.
