The MTL Romper is done! The best part? I really do LOVE it! The last few dresses I've made I haven't been completely satisfied with because of one thing or another. I rushed through them and that's what I get.
This romper though...this romper! I took my time. Look what happens when you take your time. I need to continue to remind myself that in the future.
I am still getting my measurements with Burda straight so the top is a little bit loose, but with the romper that is pretty common, so I am going to leave it for now. I've been loosing weight pretty consistently as well, so I figure I'll wait to see where I level out before making major adjustments.
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the shorts! It makes me want to make shorts on their own! I am going to resist until next summer when I have more experience though. Plus, I just ordered all the fabric I need to make my skirts & blouses for my fall 2011 school wardrobe. Sounds fantsy, huh?!?! Yah, it is!
Oh, back to the romper. It was made with some light cotton I purchased from Joannes back on the 4th of July holiday. Kind of an African safari style print in a beige-greenish sort of color. I like it, especially with the belt and hat.
Next on the sewing schedule is going to be the MTL: Bow dress in yellow that I mentioned a few days back. Wish me luck!
Love it!!! :-D
