Tracy's tye dye

This will be for my daughter-in-law#1 . She has always liked anything tye-dyed and I picked this up from fabric.com and it is a rayon knit jersey fabric. I knew that jersey would be thin - but this was a real challenge to sew. I took it really slow and easy - instead of listening to my brain that was telling me I needed to hurry- I pretended that was not true and only that I was going to enjoy each little stitch -and I did not make as many mistakes as usual. I guess I do not do good under pressure.

 It was sunny today but chilly as it did not get out of the 40s. But we were very lucky compared to places in California where they had winds up to 80 mph and they showed pictures of trucks blowed over & electricity was out everywhere. It really looked bad.

I have worked hard today with this shirt. I was not as happy with it as I thought I would be-you know how that is. But, I am going to count my blessings!
Love to all
