I have been writing like crazy all week, trying to get a chunk of my thesis out of the way. It went pretty well, but has left me incapable of writing anything else so I give you pictures instead. And not even particularly good ones. Sorry. Meh.
In between bursts of typing like a mad thing, I finished sewing the top that I was working on. You’d think I would also have ironed it properly before photographing it, but I seem to have overlooked that.
Close-up of the pin-tucks that almost ruined my life.
It’s simple and plain, just white cotton with a few little details like the gathers and pin tucks thrown in for interest, and that’s it. But I love the fit, and I’ve already worn it a couple of times since I finished it.
Also? No idea why I look so sullen in these photos. Note to self: stop that.
Such a nice top! I’ve been thinking about playing around with pin tucks too. They may have been trouble, but they certainly look great.
Oh, wow – lovely! It looks so great. Just the sort of thing I would grab off the rail in a shop, knowing I’d wear it all the time. I’d say it was was totally worth the effort, and hopefully they’ll be much easier to do next time around. Glad the thesis-writing went well too!
So cute. Persisting through those pin tucks was totally worth it
lovely! well worth the effort, from the looks of it!
