    I used to sew a lot of clothes but have only done quilts the last few years. I am going to attempt a dress- yellow material and a sheer jacket-orange patterned material. If they turn out and I look good in them I am thinking I might be able to wear to my son's wedding in Aug.

    You realize, of course, that pictures of the finished product are required????

    Maybe i'll find a manikin and do the tricks like the stores do- pin the waist in and perk up the chest. shape up the legs etc. etc. Like I said if it turns out and I look good...................
