You did a fantastic job, Azzy.

I'm floored that this is your first time sewing. It looks really, really good.

I love the design of the jacket, especially, and that you were able to take a design you thought up, and then go out and create it with some help from a pattern.

Great job!

Yep, pretty much. I did the vest but I had never used a sewing machine before that. There are some wrinkles in the shoulder seams and trim (going around curves is tough!) but overall it looks pretty darn good. I surprised myself

The hardest part was learning the sewing terminology.
You should teach "clown ec!"

Azzy,

I'm so glad you posted the photos of you and that you made them so large. My new glasses are en route, so I'm fairly blind right now, and I thought that the little guy in the white suit and pointy hat was really you!

Wow, I have never tried sewing. Maybe I should give it a try. You make it look sew easy. Pretty soon, you will have your own costume shop.

Oh just punning around ... last week, I had 8 clown gigs in one week. I was VERY busy and by last night, I was starting to crave my jammas and NO MAKEUP. Plus, I was working 10-hour days at my regular job, and I made 2 costumes for birthday parties that had themes.
