    Kamikat that sounds reasonable to ask 15 an hour. This was my first time doing a strapless dress and working with boning. It went together really well and is way more comfortable than I thought it was going to be! :)

    Lol I volunteer for my son's high school marching band so a large group of people found out I sew. :P This is today's skirt, yep I used that pattern yet again. I am seriously going to need an intervention since I have some pink brocade that is going to be done up in one too. I am going to try...

    Thanks!!! :D Do you ladies ever find it hard to NOT get sucked into those "will you fix this for me" projects? I find the second people hear that I have a sewing machine they want me to fix or alter something they have. They offer to pay or at least some do but then I never really know what I...

    This is my first gown. I am working on outfits for portraits so the fact that this is pretty tight is ok. lol The girl we put it on will just have to be smaller than me!

    Thanks! I will check it out! :D I know it's just an apron but this is what I did along with another pencil/flouncy skirt today. It doesn't match the skirt I am wearing but I didn't want to change. lol

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I find it way more comfortable to wear a dress! I did mention that as well. Some of the ladies bragged at how little time they spend getting ready in the morning. I admitted that it does take some time to "spackle my face" which had them laughing. As a housewife though I have that luxury of...

    Feels like fancy dress.......

    It's funny. Since posting that I have started wearing panty hose. It's not summer here yet but it's in the mid 80s and they really aren't too bad. I do like how they hold things in place and make shoes a lot easier on the feet! ;)

    I was talking about the ones with the panty part attached, I guess stockings would be the ones you wear with a garter?

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I was at a jewelry party tonight with some of the other "marching band" moms. They are pretty used to me and how I dress but we where talking about how long it takes to get ready. Then the conversation turned to how I dress at home. I said I dress like this... I was wearing a pink sweater...

    Made this skirt tonight from the same pattern I made the shorts and pants from. I know I said I was going to put it away, but I just love the fit! I added the flounce in the back just for a bit of a fun detail. Excuse the, um, lines I wasn't wearing the right undergarments. lol

    Cute top! Love the pattern! I too just started making pants and have to say they are not as scary to make as I once thought. :D This is the second "uniform" shirt. I will take them both in tomorrow to have our logo put on.
