This is caused by the American Women predominantly thinking that ready-to-wear is 99% better than custom-made and let's not even talk about home-made. Ugh! I fight this every day.<br /><br />I would really hope that the young kids coming up today would see the value and economy in purchasing fab and transforming their own dreams and designs into reality. That this time could be a fabulous opportunity it furthering the art and practice of empowering young peoples' designs.<br /><br />But then I sometimes I live in a fantasy world of thin thighs too!!<br /><br />;-)ClaireOKChttp://clairekennedydesign.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-19686740061908322812009-04-19T09:49:00.000-04:002009-04-19T09:49:00.000-04:00This is unfortunate :(This is unfortunate :(Ann Made Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02736679240367173915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-41834327217410177572009-04-19T09:17:00.000-04:002009-04-19T09:17:00.000-04:00I wondered if there were problems as she really ha...I wondered if there were problems as she really hadn't added much in the way of fabrics for a while now. It's really sad to see anyone go out of business, especially good fabric stores. Thanks for the heads up.
