Superbloom #3: finished<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I finally finished this Superbloom. The Hindsight Superbloom was a high. This one felt like a slog. I don’t know why except that everything that could go wrong did go wrong. This is completely my fault, because I have been somewhat distracted by life. It was still frustrating.<\/p>\n

The outside looks fine and I am pleased by that.<\/p>\n

My aunt loves irises and I found some iris fabric that I knew I had to use for her. The the fabric looks fine , but the lining is too saggy for my tastes, despite my use of a 5\/8 inch seam allowance. I know the Muggles won’t know, but you’d think by now I could manage a non-saggy lining. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

Normally, I would use a white or very light fabric for the interior, but that iris fabric is so perfect for my aunt. I could have used it for the outside, but I really wanted to use the canvas I bought at Bolt<\/a> for her for the outside.<\/p>\n

I had to buy that ochre fabric<\/a> after the fact for the zipper panel as I thought the iris fabric would look too chaotic. The ochre fabric  is a weird color, but goes with the background of the iris print. Also, it was wonderfully soft.<\/p>\n

I think it goes very well with the purple zipper.  I don’t think it should<\/em>, but it does.<\/p>\n
