Oh dear

This sort of thing is what gives craft a bad name.

You mean you don't want your bust to look like a scary, low-slung Victorian monobosom that gives the impression of *aiming* at people? Where's your sense of adventure?

Oh the horror! Did you see the "How to turn an '80s' sweater into a fashionable floor cushion" bit. I couldn't bring myself to look. I just wondered why I would still have a 25 year old jumper, what state it would be in if I did and why on earth I would want to turn it into a floor cushion.

The only way it could have been worse would be if she instead bought two smaller doilies and centered them on either side.

*shudder* Oh, that's just... *wrong*! LOL!!!!

Thank you, that really made me giggle. In between going Aaargh, of course.

Well, I sure wouldn't boast of making somthing like that. But it did hide the "Boston" print...

*sniggers* I like GK's suggestion. In different colours - red and green, to know which side is which! *evil grin*

I showed it to my roommate and her response was "That's cool." Fail.

Fashion perplexes me.

Oh dear! *sigh*

When wandering round antiques and collectables places, I'll look at the piles of doilies and pieces of lace in an entirely new light. Perhaps I could suddenly make a stained old tracksuit top into something fashionable?

Though last year I did find the most gorgeous piece of lace, shaped to go round the neckline and across the top of a bodice, which I will eventually use for an evening top - probably have to make something in plain cream silk for it.
