I saw this REALLY cute tie onesie for Lincoln. I wanted it, but couldn't spend $15 for something he'll wear for probably 3 months. My bright idea...I'll make it. So I headed off to Joanns, picked out some fabric, iron on adhesive and I was set. Total cost: $5. I always have such high expectations for my projects, and I get frusterated waaaay to easily.
Frustration #1: Bought the wrong adhesive. Apparently there is about 5 different kinds, and me (being the crafter that I am... have NO idea what is what...) Luckily I have a wonderful husband who is willing to get what I need, even if it takes three trips. :)
Frustration #2: It's 10 pm when I'm making this project, and at that point my brain has pretty much turned to mush. That reason right there should be enough for me to quit.
Attempt #1
The lighting is REALLY bad, but it's a green and brown striped fabric. Even on Lincoln- I wasn't lovin' it. Not looking "so adorable", but I wasn't ready to give up yet...Attempt #2
MUCH BETTER! I'm glad I didn't give up yet, because this one turned out halfway decent. (Thanks to Joe picking out the adorable fabric!) I guess I won't give up on crafting just yet... I'm actually giving this one away as a gift. Shhhh...don't tell Linc. ;)
