It’s official…
I am a menace to myself… but try as I might, I can’t seem to run away from me…
I had the whole evening to myself… kids asleep, hubby at a work thing… so I decided to take advantage of the quiet to whip up a skirt for Rosh Hashanah. I got out the pretty fabric, and found the tutorial, and sat down on the floor to start making the pattern. I got cold feet and chose an old piece of fabric, just in case… I decided on a wrap around skirt. I did the calculations and cut out my three panels. And wouldn’t you know it, i miscalculated. I was off by 20 centimeters for the waist and 30 centimeters for the hem…. oof. I annoy myself. All the excitement has gone. I don’t feel like making a skirt today anymore…. and I wasted quite a bit of fabric (decided to cut it on the bias too….)
Did I mention how much I annoy myself?

Eek, gads. I hate it when crafting goes bad. Leaves such a hole in ones heart. Stay strong and know that you’ll live to craft another day!
