thrilling heroics
Mar. 13th, 2011 11:02 pmWatch in awe, young sewers, for I have scaled the heights of fabric, battled the flaming monsters of unpicking, and conquered the realm of completed products!
WOOOOOO! *does excited victory lap around the house*
It probably would have been less frustrating to get things right the first time, but when you've unpicked and then unpicked again, thrown the whole thing across the room, screamed in annoyance at the one millionth mistake... it really is so satisfying to finish the damn thing.
And this? This is incredibly satisfying. :D
(The object in question is a pillowcase. A big triangular one with a ruffle along the edge - so slightly more complex than "pillowcase" would tend to mean. And really hard to actually sew from scratch.
But my big triangly pillow is finally covered and back in service! I get to sit up in bed again! Yay!)
*is terribly accomplished and oh so pleased*
*is also slightly smug*
