Learning experiences

I went though my closet to clear out some old stuff, including clothes I made & then didn't like.   Here are the pictures of what went away.

 

A sack, made out of faux handkerchief linen.    It's a bit too transparent to wear on it's own, but it wasn't designed to wear alone.

 

This was the pattern it was made from:

 

 

And this is the overdress I made.

 

 

 

The problem is that the one good thing about my figure is that I have a waist.  Wearing a sack totally hides that & only mades me look like a blob.  At least, that's my story.  :-)

 

Here is another one with the same problem.   I got compliments on it though.  It's a learning experience as they say -- as in, it seemed like a good idea at the time, but not so much, really.
