That was really an eye-opener for me.<br />As a plus sized woman I never gave much thought about fashion shows or magazines, thinking that they did not come or even look good in my size. Your post proved how wrong I was. Your blog is really an inspiration.Sword_Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17288200657290848766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-65181136215880272322010-04-24T09:03:21.707-04:002010-04-24T09:03:21.707-04:00this is so cool!!!!

You posted a picture of a dress that had mismatched waist bands after you put in the zipper. You solved the problem by simply wearing the jacket. I think the dress may have been yellow and it was about 2years ago and it gave me hope and saved my sanity!

It really motivated me to start thinking...and dreaming...of the kind of items I'd love to have in my wardrobe. I don't do enough planning.<br /><br />Anyway, I really love coming to your blog to see what you've been up to...what you're sewing, what you're buying and just what you're doing in general.

I also like when you set a challenge as in one post regarding sewing most of your wardrobe over buying RTW.

How to choose from so much wisdom and the stories behind so many wonderful garments? I love all your posts. However, one that I really liked a lot was your Reflections on a Saturday Afternoon, November 21, 2009. Firstly it did me a big favour because you inspired me to get the Mrs O book, which I love to keep looking at for ideas. Secondly you showed us some pictures of your NYC meet-up with fellow sewists (some of whom I recognised from their own blogs) and I enjoyed feeling that I, too, was a little part of that, even if I couldn't be there!Eugeniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07584571701550775408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-88214086289711750012010-04-23T08:11:27.096-04:002010-04-23T08:11:27.096-04:00I liked this post: http://sewingfantaticdiary.blog...I liked this post: http://sewingfantaticdiary.blogspot.com/2009/06/saturdays-bits-and-pieces.html<br /><br />My email is smgjic [at] hotmail [dot] com.Sophie Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14984573258370585557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-34580997791875803092010-04-23T02:42:27.714-04:002010-04-23T02:42:27.714-04:00I thought your project journal post (3/4/10) was r...I thought your project journal post (3/4/10) was really interesting.

It would be super fabulous if you would post about your sewing area and how you organize tools, notions, etc. If I remember correctly, you buy some things in bulk, so you must have a place for all of that to go.<br /><br />I could use inspiration from garment-makers (not so much quilt makers and fiber artists).<br /><br />;) Thanks!neighbourhood.galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312982850571575165noreply@blogger.com
