We are still not able to talk about it without horrible guilt feelings rising up in my core. Stupid flat felled seams *grumble grumble*. I would LOVE to know if you have any secrets to making this pattern awesome because Rob would really love a shirt. While he is still young enough to wear it.

Ok, let's be straight, one of my bf's friends bribed me to make him a Tim Burton inspired, half black half white Negroni.

Not that it would have mattered. He doesn't know Colette makes men's patterns, and even if he did, he's been asking for a shirt for ages. Why would he possibly think I'd be making one now?!
