Please also remember the old standby rule: You get what you pay for.
Cheap price often means cheap work.
Expensive doesn't mean you got ripped off.
Remember, they are charging you for a knowledge that you don't poses. If you did- you wouldn't be there in the first place.
And never...
sorry to continue the off topic comments!
Oh thank you! lol
I don't know how many times I've heard:
"Really?! It took you that long?!" as if any job should be a simple one.
And also:
"You want $_____, for that?! But it's only a small alteration!!"
Every single person who walks...
I'm sorry, gentlemen! I really didn't mean for this to turn into an argument! :(
Marc Chevalier- Thank you for clearing that up! The glasses I was wearing are my favorites, and I tend to wear them more than the others due to their size. I hadn't even had the gender specific question cross my...
Levallois and MisterGrey, that makes a lot of sense! Whenever I'm at events, there are a handful of people who have glasses that look exactly the same- worn by men and women. Thanks for helping me figure that out!
Belly Tank, if you have something you'd like to add, I'd really like to hear it.

Miss Bella Hell- Gorgeous! I love the coy look on your face!!
Lauren- I don't think we could get sick of seeing you or the sailor outfit! It's awesome!

Originals for swap
I have these original patterns that I'm willing to swap for other originals or copies. I'm looking for funky 30's or 40's blouses and high waisted pants. But I'm open to suggestions!

Miss Bella Hell- Love those!! They suit your face really well. I wish I could wear cat eye glasses- I look ridiculous.
These are my two pair. They're very much alike- same color lenses, same shape. But the ones on my friend Jennifer are larger and seem to look like they're more sized for a...
Drat. Out at 6. And definitely at 7.
My body type does best in the 20's-40's.
It's a really neat little article. Makes a lot of sense for the time, though!
I know! (And thank you!)
One of the girls here sent the link to me because she knows of my portrayal and I almost fainted! It's so impossible to find anything display-wise having to do w/ sewing outside of advertisements and patterns/ books. And in pristine condition!? (I'm super excited!)
Just won these counter top display signs on ebay for my reenactment portrayal of a WW2 seamstress/ dressmaker:
I really wanted the 4th piece of the set which was this gorgeous wall sized banner, but I was outbid at the last second:
I'm not that upset though. I can make a...
