Obviously my subconscious is sad that I buy more fabric than I actually sew these days.

With such fun color and constantly changing, I think it is destined to be finished. I can't wait to see it finished. I sorry to hear about your tank top. I hope you'll be able to fix it. Because of my experiences similar to yours in clothes sewing, I have given up on sewing clothes. I just stick to knitting and quilting. I really like your blanket.

I heard the Wiksten tank runs large on sizing... Good luck with the medium to small redo! Let us know who it goes. The blanket is gorgeous - love the pattern.

Sizing is such a beast. I'm not sure what size I am with Wiksten patterns either. My first tank was a medium and pretty roomy but I think the small might be too small under the arms. Hope you can save that lovely fabric! I feel ya! Sizing is such a beast. I'm not sure what size I am with Wiksten patterns either.
