Great! Pun in my agenda!
Why is that written that in Canada, Québec could not participate?
I really don't agree with that rule, because I'm paying too for my subscription, I should have the right to win too. I don't understand.
how do you compensate for "muffin top" so it is not accentuated?
why does the time say 1:04? It's 2:04 and I am in ET.
i don't understand how to get in on the live chat...is this it? I presumed it was an actual live chat with Mary.
As I get older, my back is getting more rounded. I need a sewing buddy from Hendersonville, NC to share fitting my sloper correctly. Can you give me guidance just doing it myself?
How do I get on the chat? Can't seem to figure it out1
I am getting the question but no comment from Mary. I think she is overwhelmed>
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place yet again. But
I recently had to alter a bias cut dress for a woman who borrowed it from someone larger. She wanted it tight and against my better judgement I did it that way. It looked great on the hanger when finished, but when she put it on it ;had two horizontal buckles across the back above and below the bust. I was able to let out the side seams, she picked up the dress without trying it on. I don't normally work on bias cut dresses, so wasn't sure if this was the correct alteration in that situation. What would you have done?
I am only seeing questions no answers. What am I doing wrong
I am very disappointed! I spent an hour trying to get on the chat with Mary Ray and could never figure it out. I have never had a problem getting on a chat before. All I ever saw were questions, never any answers. Apparently I was not the only person having trouble. Please be more specific on how to not only post questions but how to see the presenter's answers. I do hope you will run a transcript of the chat.
