I don't like natural fiber fabric too much because it wrinkles so easily and I don't like looking like a wrinkled mess. So the fabric is a "linen-look". I think I will try one more thing to try to fix the dress...and then I might try remaking it, or cutting it off and making it into a shirt...or cutting it off and sewing a skirt onto the bottom...hrm.... But thank you for saying you understand!! I needed the support from a sewing sister!Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06074339341919661384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-66048805857247979092012-10-22T18:03:50.503-05:002012-10-22T18:03:50.503-05:00The top is great, as are the other garments I have...The top is great, as are the other garments I have viewed. I wonder if you would consider adding the gadget to allow someone to follow by email? I would be very grateful as I am disabled and do not get to spend a lot of time on the computer, and it is easier to follow a blog when new posts come right to my inbox.
