I haven't made the pants from this pattern, but I DID take a stab at the suit this spring, which would have gone well if I could have gotten the lining to hang right and hadn't bungled the fusible interfacing (hello, puckers...). I'm still bummed, because I really want a smart 40s suit, and they cost mondo $$$ on Etsy! Think you'll try the suit? If you did, it would totally inspire me to have another go!!Ashley Pnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7659360650582709851.post-81163229911940511142013-02-09T23:14:02.937-06:002013-02-09T23:14:02.937-06:00Love those!

It's strange how sewing mojo can just suddenly disappear and the garments come pouring out. I've also been a bit more productive, but that's very much a consequence of re-organizing my life to make more room for sewing... Less working for the dance society, more hours at the sewing table ;)Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08762815696807107905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7659360650582709851.post-52516754799825163842013-02-07T23:34:44.153-06:002013-02-07T23:34:44.153-06:00Ohmygosh!
