Seriously. You obviously have both the sewing/drafting know-how and the writing skills! I want to make every single thing you post, but I'm very intimidated by the vintage patterns. I think it's a great idea that all of your readers would go ga-ga over. :)emmasfavouritethingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17320499395061303332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-84436198168140078502009-11-11T07:41:45.430-05:002009-11-11T07:41:45.430-05:00I thought I was looking at a magazine picture when...I thought I was looking at a magazine picture when I first clicked on your blog today.
