The horror ... the horror


Do you remember I told you I liked a pattern from La Mia Boutique that was very unusual for my taste?
Well, I made a dress from it and it sucks.
TJ had warned me, but I went on anyway. Unfortunately, I also chose a TERRIBLE print for this dress (really, what was I thinking???) and the result is quite tragic.
I think I'll cut this dress shorter and then it'll go looking for a new home, because I can't stand to look at it.

But it's ok, mistakes are bound to happen once in a while, and as you can read in my post at the Sew Weekly, I'm still happy I went out of my comfort zone and tried something different. I also used shirring for the first time.

I'm working on something more promising for next week's challenge, so fingers crossed and happy weekend to you all!
