I hate to fuss with patterns as well, but when the results are good then it's worth it. <br /><br />Pattern instructions -- don't get me started. I have a BA in English and some days I'm pretty sure they are not speaking my language. I'll read the instructions to see how the steps are laid out, but the more I sew the less useful the instructions actually are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-58871932608583598212011-10-02T13:19:22.894-04:002011-10-02T13:19:22.894-04:00Regarding: pattern instructions.

Sometimes this gets me in trouble but the time saved from trying to decipher long-winded paragraphs (read: Sew the seam Here) enables me to spend more time playing in my sewing room.<br />BTW, the skirt looks great with the blouse.kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13468763091074811797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-17672609624866126562011-10-02T10:24:31.392-04:002011-10-02T10:24:31.392-04:00That's a GREAT look Debbie!

I have to admit though that I've stopped using invisible back zippers on my TNT work skirt patterns that I wear a lot because they just can't take the wearing stress (the seam tends to open up at the bottom of the zipper If the zip is on a side seam though I don't have this problem.Phyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04668161467072636784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-28509126472657896542011-10-02T09:49:36.423-04:002011-10-02T09:49:36.423-04:00Great looking skirt, Debbie.Great looking skirt, Debbie.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04229406683301436266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-20240801252508869592011-10-02T08:44:11.618-04:002011-10-02T08:44:11.618-04:00I think you should send Simplicity the link to thi...I think you should send Simplicity the link to this post, since they don't know that they haven't got a clue ...<br /><br />... and quit grousing about your hair - we don't know the difference LOLmarysewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04482564881192516660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-22880195648272391452011-10-02T08:29:38.534-04:002011-10-02T08:29:38.534-04:00Great skirt and blouse combo.
