Bartenders, I hope posting links to Youtube is allright. I just watched this and was drooling over all of the pretty clothes and wanted to share it with the other ladies here.

you can have that dress - a bit too fussy for me, but i'll take ALL the playwear, please!

 

[Pink Dahlia]

Give me pink and give me fussy!

 

[Kimberly]

Give me pink and give me fussy!

LOL Pink, I hear you. I like plain, fussy, pink, red, black, it doesn't matter. I love it all.

You would look adorable in that pink dress though.

fftopic: I really need to learn how to use the sewing machine I bought at the yard sale. I would love to learn how to sew pretty dresses from patterns somewhat similar to what was on the video. I don't even know how to thread the darn needle though.

 

[Pink Dahlia]

Let me know when you're making me the pink dress.

 

[Kimberly]

Let me know when you're making me the pink dress.

LOL, more like a pink hankie and even that would be pathetic!

i SWEAR learning to thread is the hardest part of sewing!! promise

Yes I remember that when I took sewing! It's funny because all of the stuff I learned in sewing about hand sewing is still etched in my mind and I never lost it, but sewing with a machine is far out of my memory.

I am going to start lurking in the sewing thread here and may ask for guidance if need be. :eusa_doh:

ETA: I just found a video on youtube that will teach me how to do it. I swear I don't remember any of this except threading the needle part.
