Well, It's a bit "irregular", "imperfect" but it's DONE!

I finally finished the zip-up robe for my daughter. I just packaged it up, but before I hid it away for Christmas, I took this picture. This fabric was pretty darn difficult to work with, in that I don't have an adjustable pressure-foot, so since it was slippery I'd occassioanly get snags from the bobbin threads. But it turned out ok. Last night I made my own bias-strip for the neck binding from leftover fabric and after attaching it, I realized it would look alot better with some lace trim to "balance" the lace at the cuffs so I had to rip it off and start all over, but I am glad I did because that little bit of lace looks pretty cute at the neckline.  I was a bit disgruntled working with this fabric so last night I cut out one of the poodles in the print and hand-stitched around the edge as I plan to do a nightgown to "match" but in some pink cotton knit fabric I have, and then I'll just do the poodle as an applique on the front, and maybe also do the neck binding in the print fabric, too. Since I won't have to deal with a zipper or lace cuffs it should go together a tiny bit quicker than the robe. In case you can't see the print, its a lavender background with black hearts and pink and white poodles all over it, and then pink lace trim on collar and cuffs. Very "girly." I hope she likes it!
