Date: 11/17/10 6:02 PM "A Stitch in Time" - a 55 minute podcast about the dressmaking as a necessity, a career option, and a creative outlet can be found here.
On the same page is a link to a radio show from 1993 called "Running up a frock", and a brief newsreel of fashion students parading their garments from 1957. Fantastic! |

It's a custom-made designer original. I made it myself. |

Date: 11/29/10 7:55 AM I listened while sewing the buttons on my latest effort. It was very good and I approved of the value it put on sewing as a skill. |
