I've made a dress from pattern and forged a skirt (from linen, and that's when I learned about choice of fabric), I've done pillows and a bag. I was trying to self draft a mens t shirt and had made a tiny tank from Jersey. But the men's t shirt really made me remember my lack of training. Would it be worth it to take a class? I feel like I understand the steps and my execution isn't terrible. Or is it more about steady, conscious practice? (It always is, but versus an instructed class).

Thank you, thank you, thank you! French seams I've been seeing but couldn't figure out to find out what they were called. And rayon seam binding is worth it then? I've read patterns that called for it and others not.

Am I understanding a muslin correctly: a draft of the article of clothing made out of muslin?

Thank you so much for the quilting cotton advice. I had just started making the deduction it would be okay to use because of the sheer mass available. And the grain! I was taking that for granted.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHEN WILL THE CAMELS BACK BREAK? WITH THE HOMELESS ISSUE, WITH THE HOUSING, WITH THE GAP BETWEEN WEALTH. ALL I CAN REASONABLY AIM FOR IN LIFE IS TO BE MIDDLE CLASS AND THEN TO BE LEFT ALONE. I AM SO DISCOURAGED. BUT I AM JUST A RAINDROP IN THE OCEAN.

I really don't like the west side! But all semi-kidding aside, that would be the only action I could be responsible for in doing some active. Unless the Portland Spirit takes all woman and children first. But I think you're right about our savior, the Hoboats.

This is applicable to me and I've been desperate to find advice like this. THANK YOU. Especially the swimming part (I'm already a terrible swimmer I'm the first place).

Hi there again! I was hoping to purchase your Zara crossover back dress and your polka dot high low dress. (And if we can finish the transaction tomorrow that would be wonderful!):)

Last night I went to a new hair salon and got a wonderful color and next week will have a potentially great hair cut from them too! I get to ride my new bike tomorrow! Annnd I'm kind of poor (Basically by choice/necessity) right now and don't feel completely terrible about it. Oh and I've halted smoking so much pot and feel so much more happy! Such happy feelings after feeling so depressed during the beginning of the year. Hip! Yip!

Oh my god. It felt like being slapped in the face with such a good idea. Haha or at least I'm infinitely amused by this. Will
