I am making a complicated dress with 48 steps - boning, criniolines, linings, interlinings, etc, right now. It isn't as bad as I had thought so I bought a new pattern for myself. I do not need to buy any fabric. The 'fancy' one is for a DGD. I don't wear crinolines any more. Now to find time to quilt, sew, garden and everything else. Stay off the QB, maybe??
