Sneak Peek

Just so you don't think I've been fibbing about sewing, here is a sneak peek at the two projects I finished yesterday on my snow day.

First up is Burda Style 01-2011-102:
It is completely finished. When I get a good photo of it on me, I'll give a detailed review. For now, let's just say I give it a C+.

Also finished is Burda Style 02-2011-103:

Once again, I'll have a detailed review as soon as I can get good photos. In the meantime, the pattern gets an A, while the fabric gets a C+. I'll be making this one again...

I apologize for the crappy indoor photos. It's impossible to get good lighting in my house, even with a flash, so that's why I always take outdoor shots. Unfortunately, there's a foot of snow on the ground and the temperature never got above freezing today. The forecast says, however, that we are going to get highs in the 50's and 60's this weekend, so I should be able to get photos and give the complete story on both these patterns this weekend.

What are you sewing?

I am impressed that you finished the blouse. I am sure it wasn't easy. So many of us have been seduced by it, but also put off because it looks a little tricky. I am looking forward to your detailed review.

At the moment, I am finishing up an Amy Butler bag to keep my knitting in.

We will both be having good weather this weekend!

The top looks really beautiful! Can't wait to see it on. The skirt is lovely too. Did you shorten it? It looks so long in the line drawing.

Love the buttons on the top, they look so glam. I finished tracing this same pattern today, I so hope mine looks just as nice as yours does when all done....
