I've been inspired to give sewing a try as a creative hobby and as a break from my grad studies. Still, I'll take it slow to not get frustrated.:) This week I've gotten my sewing machine tuned up, but haven't yet put fabric to machine, as it were... <br /><br />Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the great blog (and the many links to explore) and great fodder for projects I hope to tackle in the future.<br /><br />~ArielArielnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-25761848122194529022011-09-03T21:32:46.947-04:002011-09-03T21:32:46.947-04:00Congrats to Jeff!

And I've gotta tell you this just for grins. I took your online Bombshell dress course a few weeks back just for something fun to do (sorry, I am so not the Bombshell type) and I really enjoyed it and learned from it as well. The real kick is that last week, I got a two dress sewing job and for what? Yep, two Bombsell type dresses! Boning, underling, under structure et al. Nature is funny like that and I'm still smiling over that one!
