The first problem is that it's so thin that it couldn't even keep me warm in the summer, much less winter (which it is now, by the way). But I can deal with this. The second problem is that it's a little see-through, which is pretty easily remedied by this black shirt underneath. But the my real issue with this fabric choice, is that it just feels like a nightgown. The pattern, the feel (plus there is absolutely no give to it either), pretty much everything about this fabric feel like a nightgown or maybe even some sheets.
I'm starting to get over it- I made this last week and have already worn it twice in an attempt to like it-so I think it'll be okay. And I'm definitely planning on trying this out again with some different fabric. So, I think I'll keep it.PS: Thank you all for your comment love on my 100th post. If you still want to get in on the drawing for the zippy pouch giveaway, leave a comment over there before Monday, when I'll announce the winner.
Wear it to bed? Or with something like a skull & crossbones shirt? Dye it? Just a few ideas. I hear you, it stinks when you sew something and think "why did I do that"...that's part of why the lined skirt is permanently on the in-progress list for me! But I do like the pattern, very much
ReplyDeleteHum. Little house on the prairie? If you're not happy with it then definitely don't force yourself to wear it. :)
