Thanks for jogging my memory. As for the pants, I need to get a pattern fitted up. I wish someday when you are feeling especially benevolent that you would tell us a bit about your method of lining pants or your dresses. You always seem to line lots of things. If the pattern does not have a lining included like say a jacket I am sort of lost. I would think lined pants would wear lots better but most patterns never mention doing it. I probably need to buy a book about lining but don't think I have ever seen one. mssewcrazyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-14565776747716364542009-03-02T15:23:00.000-05:002009-03-02T15:23:00.000-05:004 garments in a month, that's a great achievement....4 garments in a month, that's a great achievement....and I support others too, you can't have too much of black pant as a career woman.

I am still ahead and still battling my case of "I really want to but". There is no such thing as too many pairs of black pants. Which reminds me that I need some too.Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850551308931710502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-17179946431329363962009-03-01T09:27:00.000-05:002009-03-01T09:27:00.000-05:00Well, I'm still hanging onto my "two pieces of clo...Well, I'm still hanging onto my "two pieces of clothing a month" goal and almost made it: I'm putting buttonholes into another shirt I made for my husband and I'm hemming the turquoise wool gab dress. A little late, but definitely ahead of where I was at this time last year. As for black pants, I have four pairs and I also have three black skirts, too. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-61446614122892089792009-03-01T07:46:00.000-05:002009-03-01T07:46:00.000-05:00Busy weekend Carolyn!...I need some black pants......Busy weekend Carolyn!<BR/><BR/>...I need some black pants....thanks for the reminder :)<BR/><BR/>...stop by my blog when you have a moment and see what I've been up to lately!<BR/><BR/>Pam <A HREF="http://off-the-cuff-style.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">~Off The Cuff~</A>Pam Ernyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18364147606316729502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-37976566168145530852009-03-01T00:51:00.000-05:002009-03-01T00:51:00.000-05:00Drycleaner's errand!

I procrastinate on those way too much, leading to an impression too often, to "have nothing to wear".<BR/><BR/>Black pair of pants are investments, stapples, necessities, precious commodities. I don't have any right now. I'm sewing a gray pair tonight. I should follow this project with a black pair project.
