So our tripod broke and I am having a hard time taking pictures lately. I have been using the garbage can to set the camera on. I feel ridiculous outside dragging it around the yard trying to find some good light. Anyways, this is a shirt I have been making for a while. Well it actually was suppose to be a dress but I must have an alien length torso because it fits like a shirt. I am almost finished but I need to finish the edge on the arm holes. I tried to hide it in the pictures but the close up gives it away. I am just being lazy.

    Love the top – well done!
    I do the same thing for outdoor photos (shame)
    Really must invest in a tripod!

  5. You don’t have an alien torso. You just live in an era when some people like to pretend that shirts are dresses. Way to go for putting on shorts!

    P.S. I just posted your giraffe :)

    I love that top! You are very talented. Will you be selling that pattern? I have a super short torso, but I LOVE that cowl neck so I would modify the length but it’s super cute.

    I have the same problem with my ‘alien length’ torso lol not freakishly long but just long enough that I used to get in trouble in school for my mid-section showing and dresses being too short when I was wearing the same thing as everyone else! I like the shorts-thing, that usually what I do except with tights most of the time =P
