Three weeks is too long
on: May 07, 2008, 05:15:52 PM
Is anyone else finding themselves going ahead on the smock? I'm having a hard time waiting so I started sewing already....! I also altered it to be smaller, I hope it doesn't backfire on me. I'm super short, so I find that "one size fits most" usually turns out to look like I'm dressing up in mommy's clothes.
Can't wait to see what everyone makes!
