paletot progress

To console myself for having to miss the pumpkin tea this year I actually did some sewing.

All that's left is sewing on the frog closures, the band around the bottom of the sleeves and fixing the back oops...

What back oops you ask? Well when I shorted the waist I had to shorten the waist on the skirt too to make the curve match...and then my plaid became unmatched and I ended up with a very strange stripe...

Ooopsie...but overall I'm pretty pleased with it. It's very cozy. Tomorrow I'm hoping to fully finish it. except maybe the frogs as I have to buy those at work. And I don't feel like going in BEFORE work to buy them then go home and sew them on then back to work. so everything BUT the frogs tomorrow!
