Modiste Madness said... I always enjoy your reviews Ann. We have a lot of the same patterns but you have sewn more of them than I have. :) I just bought this pattern yesterday so this one is especially timely. It is always nice to have somone give a "heads-up" in such detail. 3/3/03 10:14 PM

Lisa Laree said... You can't tell from the photo that you had problems sewing it! I'll definitely remember your tips when I get around to making this one! 3/3/03 10:49 PM
mudcat said... Ann, I think it looks very nice. I like the fabric but I can't quite tell what the objects are. 3/3/03 11:34 PM
Ann Smith said... Mudcat: the "objects" are various household things like vegetables, shoes, plants, plates, etc. with each named in lettering.
Barbara: I also enjoyed meeting Loes in November at a class and again at her boutique. She is very stimulating and inspires one to sew. 3/3/03 11:40 PM
Rustybobn said... Love the blouse, Ann. What is that lace-up garment that you are wearing with it? Did you make it too? 3/4/03 5:27 PM
Ann Smith said... Rustybobn: the lace up garment is a suede skirt, purchased at rock bottom price at Marshall's. It's hard to resist something priced way below what it would cost to sew it! 3/4/03 7:02 PM
