Great article. I can't wait to try this.

The only really strange thing about this is that I was hired to sew window treatments for a designer, but the first project he had me make was a cover for a boat! I had never made one before and it was quite a job to create a pattern and get it done in the time frame in which he had promised the client.

I have used these before, but had forgotten about them. I have to go fix a skirt and pair of pants missing one side of the closure right now! Thanks!

I agree with those above who would like to see more for the "mature" fashionista. I am positively addicted to Project Runway, but would not feel comfortable in many of the garments created. I am not a plus size, but even those of us who wear size 6 (I know that is plus in the model world), and are over 50 want to look fashionable!
