Rant.

You know what's really frustrating? To spend a week working on something, and then think you're all finished, and then trying it on and finding that you messed something up that you can't fix without totally starting over again.

Yeah, the neckline on my Link tunic is way too wide. I'm incredibly discouraged right now.

EDIT: Calming down now, problem sorta solved. Nicole, you up for a late dinner tomorrow night after we get back from Disney? Probably around nine or so, depends on when the parade is.

Too wide? Is it something you can just put a few darts in? Darts = essentially just fold a couple inch section of the fabric into a triangle piece to make it fit closer to the body and sew it tighter.

No, the shoulders would be too narrow then (and yes, I know what darts are). I figured out the easiest way to do this, which is to take the sleeves off, hack off the top four inches or so, and just redo the shoulder and neck area. Still a pain in the ass, but a lot better than redoing all of it.

*deep breath* Yes, calming down here ^^
