Ready to seam
Buffalo brownski Peace Fleece Everyday Cardigan pieces. I was so excited to begin that I seamed one of the shoulders together. Just as I pulled my last stitch through, the awful realization dawned on me that I had put the front panel on the wrong side. The neck decreases were facing the shoulder. UGH. Yes, of course, I checked this out beforehand. I thought I had it all figured out. I guess not. I even fancied, just for a moment whether I could live with it. In my delusional state, I thought, "Gee, it kinda looks like sleeve decreases". Yeah. NO! It does not.
By design, the mattress stitch is invisible. Nobody wants to see their stitches when seaming. This makes pulling them out a challenge. Did I say "challenge"? Because that would be an understatement. Needless to say, I spent the rest of the evening picking out the seam.
I am now back, again, to square one. My pieces all piled up nicely looking. Today is another day.
And speaking of today. LOOK!

Blue skies, nothing but blue skies! It's supposed to be 50F degrees here today.
Be still my heart! Could it mean spring isn't far behind?
Did you find Claudia's new blog? Yup, she's broken free and gotten herself some new digs. Of course, they are orange no surprise there, but she's got plenty of room to spread around. Update your links and check often as she's getting shunned by bloglines. Silly old bloglines.

Seems like it's a seamingly kind of day to me!
