| EveS | 6/12/08 | Oh, Karen. I don't recall channelling you but that's ok. I JUST finished a comparatively mundane version of this pattern...inspired by your earliest editions. I'm so glad I finished my shirt BEFORE I saw this amazing new version, as I might not have been quite as pleased with my results. ;) lol. Anyhoo, fabulous menswear and review. Thank you for the inspiration!!! I couldn't agree more w/ your review. |
