Notes

Starting bottom up for some reason but I have no idea why. Or not

It just never felt right so I am restarting top down, simultaneous shoulders the Barbara Walker way, and so far so good.

I really need new photos.

Done. It fits really nicely. It was very worth it to pull it back when i did not like how the top was fitting. Now the only problem is the dyelot issue. I knew that would be trouble right from the get go. I will over dye it once the dye arrives. I still need new photos.

Now that it has been much worn - and loved - the dye lot issue isn’t. Nobody sees it where I work stuck inside and inside. I could not decide about closures and got tired of pinning it. I sewed the top section together, icord to icord and I love how it looks and how it functions. It keeps me looking neat.
