Although I know you've read this before, I just wanted to let you know how much I look forward to reading your posts,and can't wait to see and read all about your newest creations. Believe me, you are indeed an inspiration to me, just thinking about how enthusiastic and prolific you are concerning garment construction helps me to get out the machine and "sew more clothes, like Carolyn does." Although we've never met, I consider you a friend. Thanks for continuing to share your love of sewing, and Happy New Year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-14836967293864369612008-01-04T12:17:00.000-05:002008-01-04T12:17:00.000-05:00yes mary sarah, i was thinging the same thing!

Great dress on you. <BR/><BR/>When I first saw the small photo version of the pic with the long pearl necklace, I thought you had sewn another version with buttons down the front in a quasi semi-military double breasted fashion. And I liked that too. Maybe something to consider for later?<BR/><BR/>Obligation is beating out inspiration here, too, but in my case it's paralyzing me. I have black jeans I've wanted to sew for DS but now that I've got them cut, my attention is wandering to an interesting WOF jacket for me and I can't seem to get motivated to sew the jeans. Since I don't move on until the previous project is done, I'm in a rut. Hopefully today I'll get them started and moving out of the queue.Debbie Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03601675304884019607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-16326226736592376402008-01-04T09:15:00.000-05:002008-01-04T09:15:00.000-05:00I love the versatility of this garment!
