Another thing i wished I knew before I started is that I should do the aho puka more oval and apart as due to its roundness (below right) and being quite small circle i ended up with perked breasts on my bodice, which it may look Madona style but I am not so sure of it. i am not using colour on it preently as i am intending dyeng partly with indigo.
Now it is full steam ahead, as only have till end of October to finish it.
