I totally understand about the doing it yourself (the old-fashioned way)...my machine is from the 60's...so...well done!! <br /><br />Vickie suggested sewing in some ties to make it come in a bit...that's a great idea! You could stitch on some ribbon two on each side...one in front and the other in back and then tie into a cute bow on either side...that might help make it look more slimming. <br /><br />I love the first picture of you laughing so hard...that's great! :)<br /><br />Blessings,<br />CamilleCamillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07838089502798643241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14988614.post-51951144659444697452009-10-15T19:33:28.972-07:002009-10-15T19:33:28.972-07:00You have to be proud of yourself.

I can almost hear the laughter. I know how you feel -- many of my sewing projects have somehow, despite my best efforts, gone awry. :) However, you did a great job on buttonholes. Girl - if a pattern calls for buttonholes, I just keep on moving til I find one that doesn't. <br /><br />I can't wait to see you next sewing project..... :) I'll be sure and post my next one.
