And that's saying a lot since I'm pregnant and not much is flattering at the moment :) <BR/>But I did find one potentially usable pattern for myself- 5851. I also agree with My Fabrication - 5859 could work for you!Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08967033187060855825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-40809949539546514702009-02-27T08:51:00.000-06:002009-02-27T08:51:00.000-06:00I thought I was the only one that stalked pattern ...I thought I was the only one that stalked pattern websites! =) I totally agree with you!
