I'm going to adjust for the wrinkles and try another muslin. I'm really, really excited!! Now I'm going to draft the top! Like I said before, I already have the Sew What Skirts book and that pattern draft is pretty much the same, so I might not actually redraft. I might just take my other skirt & do the adjustments to make the cute versions in the book. <br /><br />I'm such a sewing geek.angie.ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575366388194033626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435738925121167166.post-32519075347025029302010-02-20T16:25:48.066+00:002010-02-20T16:25:48.066+00:00book ordered, don;t start with out me! i'm a b...book ordered, don;t start with out me! i'm a bit nervous of measuring myself and fainting with shock at how huge my waistband will be. perhaps should just buy a tent instead. :-(MaineGirlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435738925121167166.post-55038496057168617902010-02-20T16:08:58.522+00:002010-02-20T16:08:58.522+00:00right now I'm totally in love with recycling, ...right now I'm totally in love with recycling, wrap skirts and layering, but I'd love to learn more about it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12246889017006696160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435738925121167166.post-50069525145610185522010-02-20T12:07:52.352+00:002010-02-20T12:07:52.352+00:00OOOH im in!......Off to check out Amazon right now...OOOH im in!......Off to check out Amazon right now, before they all go!......You should get commission now for all their extra sales! <br />x KKymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05954078962664987435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435738925121167166.post-9747319996335208162010-02-20T11:26:09.801+00:002010-02-20T11:26:09.801+00:00perfect! i've been wanting to learn how to mak...perfect! i've been wanting to learn how to make myself some clothes..I'm in! off to order the book...<br /><br />ummmm...what exactly is a sew along?Squam Hill Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00883209478422637916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435738925121167166.post-30866562616105359772010-02-19T23:33:56.499+00:002010-02-19T23:33:56.499+00:00Hi, I got a sewing machine for Christmas and it...Hi, I got a sewing machine for Christmas and it's desperate to be used.
