I definitely have some work to do on mine! Yours is looking awesome though and that fabric is pretty cool! :)Rochelle Newhttp://luckylucille.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-58892805581119530.post-49984244576261232662012-10-15T16:12:06.032-04:002012-10-15T16:12:06.032-04:00Progress it's great and I just love the fabric...Progress it's great and I just love the fabric House of Pinheirohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03665402078342817113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-58892805581119530.post-51352314861201056052012-10-15T14:23:20.083-04:002012-10-15T14:23:20.083-04:00Oooh the fabric looks nice as a Peony!

I'm loving the Peony since I finished mine yesterday (I'll get it blogged soon). I love it so much that I'm thinking I'll be making at least 2 or 3 more with the same pattern. If you end up as addicted as I, you'll be ahead of the game if you finish up this one to wear.Cari Homemakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05513940035348047427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-58892805581119530.post-14902267592500909682012-10-14T20:04:25.490-04:002012-10-14T20:04:25.490-04:00Hi there!

On its own its pretty scary but made up into the Peony it looks totally different and very wearable in public. You don't need to do much to finish it, the fit is good, I say go for it.
