Especially since if we dislike it we're likely to keep it in pristine shape for decades, accumulating guilt and reproaches in the back of the closet.<br /><br />But as for RTW, it's well worth analyzing -why- we dislike something before we ditch it. Is it the color? The fit? The style that doesn't quite match our personality? The fabric that doesn't quite match the pattern? Just a couple insights here and there can mean that future projects will be more successful.<br /><br />You should be much more self-congratulatory though - even though you picked the lite version, you did go through the whole month with something you-made around the whole time. It's quite an accomplishment. And you even managed not to guilt-trip yourself, and to keep the sewing to an enjoyable level. That's really great..Marie-Christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7236449875936881620.post-49885202269063151082010-05-31T22:51:44.032+02:002010-05-31T22:51:44.032+02:00I've enjoyed watching your me-made-may.

It's been fun seeing how people wear the things they may or may not have featured before when first sewn.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08679998588660500127noreply@blogger.com
