Got to add that you and I could be Soul Sisters - my first machine was a Husqvarna (Viking to you) 6370 - loved it to death. Well, not literally of course, it's still going strong. Now I love my D1 but even more so! I have deviated along the quilting path so let my dressmaking go somewhat, but it still calls to me. Love reading sewing blogs and wishing I had a clone so I could quilt and dressmake at the same time.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14366385581549506452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-28759171971630288632010-04-18T09:10:43.465-04:002010-04-18T09:10:43.465-04:00Whoa, that dropped shoulder harkens back to the ei...Whoa, that dropped shoulder harkens back to the eighties :) Am enjoying your fabric choice, a perfect example of regional styles. It looks like fun to wear (with a pair of capris! ) in subtropical Florida. But here? In Brussels? I am seriously washing heavy corduroy pants now, that are just slightly getting too warm for the weather. (As I type this wearing knee socks instead of regular socks, and have a ls sweater over a tee shirt.)

His flight to Michigan (his home town) had been postponed all day long and he was completely lit!! <br />BTW, I nearly fainted when you left a comment at my site (the naming of our sailing blog) as I've been reading you for years! Do you by any chance live anywhere near Tampa? I have a friend here in the north whose niece lives near Tampa (Wesley Chapel) and wants desparately to learn how to sew, and no one can find a 4-H club with a sewing chapter. Any thoughts on this????laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174697892947430149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-61346117879566345182010-04-15T20:07:23.065-04:002010-04-15T20:07:23.065-04:00haha, cats ARE like that.
