I noticed while I was reading that you love Christmas. I love Christmas too, it's such a special time of year. We would love for you to follow us, and I would certainly come back and follow you as well. It's so nice to meet new friends.<br /><br />Thank you for your comment on my anniversary post today.<br /><br />~Sheri at Red Rose AlleyRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579555037165364084.post-37832181605279594562013-08-15T16:46:25.432-07:002013-08-15T16:46:25.432-07:00and does Michelle even know how many frocks she ha...and does Michelle even know how many frocks she has?? and how many rooms does it take to contain them all??

It is the same with me, and in recent years there have been quite a few rejects. A pattern cut just for me by a professional pattern-maker has helped a lot. The other difference I think is the pattern instructions are not as good as they were in the past; they are over-simplified and don't have the couture finish we used to be given. xoxPatriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685403215601517267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579555037165364084.post-88732238667974589962013-08-15T00:48:19.518-07:002013-08-15T00:48:19.518-07:00LOve all that sunny yellow Patricia!
