I purchased a poncho to use when travelling and the only difference I think is it might be a bit longer and more rounded at the bottom. No, even the expensive one I bought is not flattering, but it is a utility item. Yours is bright and cheerful and I think warm is the most important idea. Like you, garment sewing is not my thing, as I find the instructions a bit mysterious. Sometimes it is like entire sentences are not written, because the pattern writer assumes you 'know' even though you have are using a beginner level pattern. Well done.

You did a great job and it seems very cozy.

My office is in one of the oldest buildings on campus and it's always so cold in the winter (though my office isn't as cold as My Guy's). We both may need a poncho for the winter.

I keep wanting to make something with mine, but you know, I just haven't. I will but I keep thinking of a simple jacket but it always calls for more fabric...makes me crazy.
