My reasoning for doing so now is an appreciation for the wonderful women of all sizes (and particularly larger sizes who HAVE posted pics of themselves in their sewing creations and how very much that has helped my own sewing. Also, you cannot capture the shape of a wrap dress on a hanger at all.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00679010667380926214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428170755441322829.post-53753692243186761072011-09-26T08:39:33.776+13:002011-09-26T08:39:33.776+13:00oh, that was meant tor ead long black STRAIGHT hai...oh, that was meant tor ead long black STRAIGHT hair<br />~RAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428170755441322829.post-68958445932084234952011-09-26T08:38:59.582+13:002011-09-26T08:38:59.582+13:00Where did you get your model?

Thank you for the suggestion though.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00679010667380926214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428170755441322829.post-10033007027993734212011-09-25T12:06:44.491+13:002011-09-25T12:06:44.491+13:00Do you eat much rice?

The sacks are so handy for sewing (although the dyes tend to run a fair bit, so they need a good wash or two before use) - I use them for all kinds of things :-)Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17588832912375311757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428170755441322829.post-5447451198560488822011-09-25T12:06:32.507+13:002011-09-25T12:06:32.507+13:00Congratulations on your frugal sewing, Sandra!
