This Barbara

from 2/2010 Ottobre used almost all my nerves. The simple look of the pattern makes you think it's done in one evening. You are so wrong. It took me quite time to start Barbara in summer 2010, but got it finally finished in hot summer 2011.

Sizing was correct for me, but maybe my choice for the material was not. It was very good quality linen, but maybe too heavy for this purpose. If I remember right I first thought to sew this without the elastic on a waist. This Barbara turned out to be so wide I could have been two or even three sizes bigger to wear it.

The quality of my pictures is lousy. I know it, but I'll try to fix it somehow later... I quess I have to pay more lollipops to my photographer. And as a proper Finn I have to also apologize my English. Please be patient with my grammar mistakes, because there will be plenty of them...

    Sä olet sitkeä kun jaksat tehdä valmiiksi vaikka menisi pitkäänkin, hieno tuli!

    Onkohan tuo se, mitä itsekin harkitsin ja sitten tulin järkiini.

    Anni, periksi en anna. Vaikka valmista vaatetta ei tulisikaan käytettyä, mutta matkalla olen oppinut kuitenkin jotain.

    Puskissa, hyvä että järkiinnyit. Tuon tekeminen oli mahdotonta taitteiden silittämistä.
