Mccall's 8147




Here we go again with the cheap JoAnn flannel. This flannel was not as good as it normally is.
When I shrunk the fabric the red bled everywhere. I had to wash it two more times to get the
color out and by that time the fabric started pilling, probably should have made rags out of the
fabric at that point. Went ahead with the project and this is what resulted.

I used a blouse pattern for the top and it seems to fit pretty good. The sleeves were way too long,
but I do have short arms, I'm also wearing shoulder pads to make the sleeves lie nicer. I may try the bow tie version of this pattern later date. I probably will donate this at the end of the season,
since I don't love it.
