I have sewn my clothes for years because i could always get a better fit and the price was right. I got an eye opener the other day. Went to my favorite Wally and had to purchase a piece of light weight knit in brown and teal with my name on it. Only got a yard (60" wide) for a tee for $5.97.
Two days later I was back for groceries and there were three racks of White Stag tees for $4.00. Good brand, nice fabric, good colors and patterns. Needless to say, I bought several. That piece I got doesn't look so good now.
