You’re just like me. I feel inspired by others’ projects and enthusiasm about sewing, so I think I can tackle any sewing project myself. And pssst…they don’t always turn out like they should. But hey, at least we try, right? But, still, best of luck and I hope your costume turns out perfectly.

October 6th, 2008 at 5:38 amIsn’t it funny how we are so inspirred by television shows we watch. I’m hooked on Dancing with the Stars & watching it makes me want to learn to dance. Unfortunately with rheumatoid arthritis & some other issues, dancing is about the last thing I can do. But then I can dream….
I love your choice of fabric..I want to sew too now. lol Keep us posted, I can’t wait to see how it turns out.

October 6th, 2008 at 8:09 amLooking forward to the next episode of your sewing project. You can do it, sewing is easy if you take your time and follow the pattern directions. Of course we have all had those, why did I chose this pattern moments. clothes.

October 6th, 2008 at 8:09 amWishing you much success!
I’m sure it will be wonderful but if not…wear an orange tshirt and wrap the fabric around your waist and wear tights underneath!
I saw that fabric at Joanns, they had an outfit made with it, it is quite gorgeous!
If y’all keep this up, I may have to brave something myself but I still have horror memories of being in 7th grade and sewing class!

October 6th, 2008 at 10:13 pmYou go girl! I’m impressed. What a great dress. Love the HG pins and your fabric.
A one hour project would take me about 1 year (or more). About 3 1/2 years ago, I bought a sewing machine. I started making 3 bandannas for my pups. I still haven’t finished the 1st one.
Oh, well. My husband did use my machine to make a cushion for the rocking chair he made. Boy, his craft projects put me to shame!
Lene says:
October 7th, 2008 at 4:53 amGood luck! I’m sure your dress will be just as cute as P’s overalls!
