Downeast Ruffle Shirt a Bust

Oh my! That seems to be a little play with words. But never mind that.....the Downeast ruffle shirt didn't work out at all. It took forever and I did everything right but it was atrocious and I'll never wear the thing. O-well. Can't all be perfect. On to something else! I'm thinking that Downeast skirt might be next on my agenda. I just need to find a good pattern or tutorial.
I saw this on Controlling My Chaos the other day and had been trying to think of something cute to do for Bug's kindergarten teacher for the end of the year. I thought it was adorable and so we made it the other night and filled it up with her teacher's favorite candies.

3 backward glances:

Too bad about the shirt - it looked so cute in the picture! Sounds like my apron disaster!

Love the teacher gift! I always appreciate more the things that someone has taken the time to make!

Totally cute teacher's gift. Sorry about the ruffle thing, I guess I'll put my dozen downeast shirts back in the drawer then...

So, so cute. I'm thinking I should have put a lot more ribbon on mine. I love yours.
