Little Red Riding Rach

I made a Minoru, actually I made it a couple of months ago but no opportunity for pictures. This week we had a nice sunny day, and a nice walk in the park so it was photo-opp-tastic

I look like I have been photoshopped onto a background thanks to the unexpected camera flash, I promise I was really there

I was a rebel with this make - I didn't make a toile, shock, horror, I didn't even do a tissue fitting, I recklessly cut into my fashion fabric.

Thanks to the lack of toile, this is a little bit big, but I was cunning and tightened up the elastic in the waist a bit, problem solved and I can fit a big bulky jumper underneath it still.

 Apart from the bigness, this went together easily, Tasia's instructions are very good and when I was in doubt I just had a look at the sewalong on the Sewaholic website. The only other change I made was to add some in seam pockets. I think I will probably make this again in a slightly more subdued colour.

On our walk around the park, I then tried to climb a tree thinking of getting some interesting blog photo's, however I just got laughed at and told off for getting dirty jeans. Also you can see my awesome witches shoes in this picture, LeBeau hates them, I threaten to turn him into a frog if he criticises my choice in footwear again.

The hood on this jacket is truly epic.


I am now off to do some homework, instead of procrastinating here
