Re: Cut-on Gusset

This was a great tutorial. Thank you. I would like to see a photograph of the whole front and back to see how the fitted sleeve looks as part of the whole.

Re: Threads Announces New Editor

Congratulations on your new spot at the "old" magazine!
I look forward to seeing how you will make your mark on Threads. I have all the issues #1 to whatever-the-last-number-was, and I find it very interesting to follow the changes in the magazine as the editorial staff changes.

I would like to see less basic sewing and crafty-crafts and more details, details, details on creating well-made and sophisticated designs. At one time Threads ran a series on design details from the 30's and 40's and how to alter a pattern to achieve these looks. I LOVED IT! Other articles I have really liked in the past - anything by Claire Shaefer, the article on how to make chinese frogs and passimenterie buttons, how to make crochet buttons, grosgrain ribbon cockades, Sandra Betzina articles - you get the drift.
