She was in disbelief that I was taking a course online with a fab teacher in Cali. She said how is she going to see/feel your fabric? Why does she want you to use a lining? The questions went on & on. As I exited she said I'm here if you have questions...hmmmm.<br />All that to say thank you for being so optimistic about our abilities to learn how to sew & enjoy what we are doing.

Also I could not order the pattern before tonight and they are sold out. It has been a very busy week for me and my plan was to order the pattern on Friday but my system was down. I will try and find the pattern at Joann's on Sunday if I can get out because we had a bad snow storm on Friday and I have been unable to go out because the roads are closed. Is there another skirt pattern I can use if I cannot find 2314?<br /><br />EvelynAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02752449975685976850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-29342529243727507932013-02-09T11:17:40.943-08:002013-02-09T11:17:40.943-08:00Mimi my wait is a 24.5 is it still possible for me...Mimi my wait is a 24.5 is it still possible for me to complete this pattern?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-44930001155850059122013-02-08T21:47:14.900-08:002013-02-08T21:47:14.900-08:00ok just finished gathering my tools not sure if I ...ok just finished gathering my tools not sure if I should wait for the pattern and gift card cause I dont know how to go about it.but Ill be waiting for your instructions this is so amazing I cant wait to begin.thanks so much for the chance to participate mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14447124846304114972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-68241450626802884242013-02-08T06:54:06.616-08:002013-02-08T06:54:06.616-08:00Not sure if my previous post made it....I was able...Not sure if my previous post made it....I was able to price match the pattern for .99 at JoAnn's by showing the Hobby Lobby printed ad from the website.

Mimi, my question to you - as my fabric selection here on my island is not as vast as what is available in the US - would you be able to suggest some additional fabric suggestions; I will try for the cotton twill or I am hoping to get a tribal print. I am so looking forward to the next four weeks, I will be making good use of my time management skill - balancing classes, assignements, gym, mimi online sewing class and oh yeah the 'bills payer'. Thanks again for this opportunity.<br /><br />Oh, Mimi - I was going over your OsOT/DIYs and I was looking at your pants photos. You noted that you edit the pattern to get the flared leg fit that you like. MMMMMM!! I was wondering if sometime in the near future you will be putting out a tutorial on your technique for obtaining such a fit ( I am very hipsy and I think that fit is more appealing for my shape and I would love to try my hand at making slacks like yours).<br /><br />Regards<br />Alisonlsn246https://www.blogger.com/profile/06533098497746349953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-49875561610035903122013-02-04T18:47:32.202-08:002013-02-04T18:47:32.202-08:00Do you mind sharing your height?
