So close to being done.

Monday, July 7th, 2008

Michelle reminded me that I should show the finished product already… but it’s not yet done.

Seamed and nearly done.

All the seams are done and I’ve tried it on… I love it already. I’m terrible at finishing projects since I kind of rush through the seaming process. It all ends up a bit messy, but this time I took my time, pin-basted the pieces together and seamed with a strong backstitch or fake grafting. Now I just have to finish picking up the front bands and making buttonholes. Then, I’ll have a thick wool cabled hoodie ready to wear, just in time for the hottest days of July.
