Re: 70s 80s Top

Please tell me what kind of a dressmaker's body form that is!

Re: Sewing Slang

I would definitely be a Sewing Diva if I wasn't a Wannabee Sewer, but I also like the term Seamstress. My mother sewed (and still does at 83) - everything from draperies to wedding dresses, ringbearer suits, going away outfits, and all my high school party dresses on an old back and forth black singer, as well as my wedding dress and 4 bridesmaids, her mother of the bride outfit and the flower girl's dress, and my going away outfit. It has served her for 50 years. I have a lovely Bernina and I can tell you I'm no match for her -- it's all blood, sweat and tears for me if it's too complicated - not at all hereditary skills. Soooooo, I want to say how thrilled I am with the Get Biased pattern in this month's issue! Can't wait to try it...and I'm so glad I logged on to get the correction for those instructions. Thank you Threads!!!

Re: Find Your Best Silhouette

I don't know if this is the right place to make general comments, as it's the first time I've posted any comment, but I want to say how thrilled I am with the latest edition of Threads in which scallopped edges are explained, as well as the wonderful top made from 2 squares. I am a new sewer and this really inspired me. I can't wait to try it. Holding down 2 jobs makes that a challenge, but nevertheless I will find the time. My clothes closet needs a lot of help and having something so apparently simple to make is really exciting to me.
