PR&P Sew-Along Week 3: Decade

Well here it is, my reversible Twiggy-inspired jumper.  This thing was such a pain in the ass.  I now remember why I hate piping. Ok, I don't hate piping, but with piping there's no room for error! No sewing outside the box! You have to be precise or it looks all kinds of wonky. I'm just not big on precision. I drafted this pattern from scratch and I like the proportions and shape of the finished product. Would I pipe the whole thing again though? Probably not unless you paid me for my time and frustration!
                                    Not only was the project frustrating to sew but the photo shoot was pretty much a debacle.  Pretty much every photo I got looked like this:



 
Looooots of that.  I would get one good shot...
 
 And then 10 more of sqwunch face.  (Yes, I put mascara on my two-year-old, but just because of the 1960s photo shoot.  Please don't haul me off to Toddlers and Tiaras jail!) You know what's funny? Even though the jumper is reversible I meant for the peach colored fabric to be the outside and the circle fabric to be the inside. I think I always have a favorite in mind when I make something reversible.  Do you do that too?  Anyway, once I saw it on her I actually like the circle fabric better!
 
Grooooovy baby!
