HSF #1 Fail

So, I dug out my twill tape to start binding my stays and realized that I only have enough to bind the bottom half. And I also discovered that my original plan of machine sewing on the binding first (before flipping to the back and handsewing down) was not going to work. Thus, HSF #1 is not to be. I won't have a chance to get to the fabric store until this weekend to get the twill tape that I need and finishing will be a much more significant time commitment. The stays have now been pushed to the UFO challenge, for which they should definitely be done. It's not a huge deal that I didn't get #1 done on schedule because I was only planning on doing the even challenges anyways, with the first one as a bonus. But it makes me a bit sad that my first challenge was a bust. I guess I should get going on #2. Luckily, grey pants should be much easier. Especially since I'm using a pattern I've used before.
