Yay! It's finished!!! But one of the snaps is squint. And I just noticed a tiny scissor cut in the cuff of the shirt! I'm not sure if it happened while I was trimming the threads or if it was there when I started working on it.
Ignore the little feet in the picture. He was asleep on the bed while I was taking pictures. The arm hole bindings are terrible, and I don't think the front button band is right at the bottom. I couldn't understand the instructions for that so I just did the best I could.
The backs - I put snaps on the back of the shirt too. You were supposed to use buttons, but I was fed up with the project and I just wanted to get it done.
The very unhappy little boy modelling it! Everyone came charging up the stairs and woke him up so he wasn't in a good mood.
E is trying to make him stand up so I could take a picture and he is shouting at her!
Huggles with mama made him feel better!
We swapped the shirt for a t.shirt. It doesn't look so girly and frilly now. (the fabric shelves actually are leaning to one side - not because of all my fabric! It seemed wonky when we built it and it is also on an uneven part of the carpet.)
More huggles with mama!
Oh well, this is about as good a photo as we're going to get.
Tonight I'm not too sure what I'm going to work on. Button holes for a dress maybe. And I found a pair of waterproof trousers that are almost done, and another KCK One nappy that just needs sewn together and elastic put in. Will post pics tomorrow.
