Re: Magazine Giveaway: The Best of Threads Fitting
Hello Thread's Community,
posted: 4:07 pm on April 5thI would have to say for me it is the shoulders which also affects my bust measurement considerably. I would love to be able to accurately fit myself properly without having to go through trying on the garment and taking it off. I still have not purchased a dress form - someday.
Thank you and have a nice day.
Sincerely,
MsMadisson

Re: BOOK GIVEAWAY: Fashion by Design
Hello Everyone - I was recently referred by (FB Profile: Sew Craftful), about designer/teacher (Susan Eilas) from one of her teaching videos on (You Tube) regarding draping, and I must say I was amazed!
posted: 5:24 pm on August 27thFrom my perspective as a sewer the desire to create clothing that has durability, a creative edge, and becomes cost effective in the long run was derived mostly from necessity.
Throughout all my sewing projects I have always thought it would be nice to create my own patterns that would benefit my personal style and creativity, but somehow considered it to be somewhat out of my reach.
After viewing (Susan Eilas),videos I see that the possibilities are endless if given the proper tools and instruction along with a true desire.
Now there are many designers/teachers who may have videos or reading tutorials in the art of draping, and I think when it comes to such a topic each person perspective has to be observed/viewed and possible used to determine which style is best for you. You may even find yourself using instructions from many and compiling them all into one easy concept for you to use in the long run. But the whole point is to research and be comfortable with the instructions and to know which one(s) fits you.
I would be so, so ECSTATIC to receive this book "Fashion By Design" by Janice Greenberg Ellinwood. I feel her insights would open my world even more to terms of relaying image, concept and conditioning to designing apparel.
Thank you for sponsoring this book giveaway! Have a nice day!
Best Regards,
MsMadisson
