T-shirt of joy!
so there's a fabric store going out of business & I bought some cotton knit. I don't usually work with cotton knit. I don't think I really ever have, but I loved these colors together & the stripes.
Stripedy!
I tried to explain to Fustus that we're both stripedy now, but he was unimpressed.

This is really cute. Two things - I can't tell if it's made to look like layers but really isn't. Second, did you have a lot of trouble with skipped stitches? That - and stretching too much as I sewed - was/??were my biggest problem/s??

It's not layers, maybe it's because the sleeves are pulled up that it looks that way, I don't know. I didn't have much of a problem with the sewing, but I used my newer machine that has a tension setting just for stretch fabrics. I think that helped.

Thanks, I've resigned myself to the fact that I make cute things.
