marnieann added the project called stylish dress book pattern Y
I think I like it? The front panel on this top was tricky and a bit fiddly (and it looks suitably dodgy on the inside). I only had one metre of fabric so the length is a bit unusual. The gathers ar…

More about marnieann
A dear friend gave me her grandmother's old machine in early 2011 and I am hooked. Sewing is so much faster than knitting and easier to get a good fit. The only other things I had ever sewed before were a pillowcase and a pot holder in highschool but with the help of you-tube and google, I am having some real success.
