Ready for vaca!

I finally completed B5922.  I ended up having to make two darts in the back neck area as the center closure was sticking out.  Between packing and such I made the final tweaks.

Here are two photos of the front; side view I took were not good.  I will get DH to take photo while  on vacation.  Heading to the beach.  DH's niece will be house setting for us while we are gone.
I took the photos in the bathroom mirror, not the best place for photo and excuse the roll of toilet paper in the photo.  Could not crop it out.



I think the top looks much better in natural light.  I am pleased with the final fit.  I will probably make this again.

    It's never easy taking photos - I can't even get good light in the bathroom :)
