Dear oh dear oh DEAR! What was I thinking?

I know what I was thinking; I was thinking that I needed a medium weight coat that fits but how did I get it into my head that I could make one?

I really want a duster and I couldn't find one that was my size, so I bought a pattern and I got the cloth and thread. The thing is, I don't own a sewing machine. I will be sewing this all by hand.

What the FUCK was I thinking?

Today I pinned the pattern to the cloth and cut it out and now I am stuck. "Where?" you ask.

On the pocket. On what should be the simplest part of the whole fucking thing and I am stuck. All the directions are under the assumption that you couldn't be as foolhardy to make anything without a maching so I'm being told to Zigzag stitch to "finish" the raw edge of the pocket. And the pocket has rounded corners so I have to baste them and the pull on the thread to "ease in the fullness of the curve."

Someone kill me.
