This week being the fifth anniversary of the site, I’m including five years of archive entries. It’s always embarrassing because the very first entry was the typical blog+cat post. What can I say? It was a test entry. The first entries are also a little rough around the edges but they haven’t kicked us off the internet. Which is not to say they’ve invited us to sit at the cool fashion kid’s table either.
Hope your weekend is grand (I always say that but I do mean it). Here’s this week’s entries from the archives.
Just read through the first five posts. Hate to say it, but I am still a beginner when it comes to sewing. Improvement is slow coming but it is improvement. Love the placement pattern. I think I’m going back to men’s patterns for a while. There’s less change. As a home sewer it’s very time consuming to make jigs for one-ofs, and most women’s wear is just that. Men’s style clothing is charmingly boring. I’m going back to boring and master that. Love the first week’s post. Just as relevant today as five years ago. Happy fifth birthday, F-I, you’re more than four-and-a-half, you’re five! (Barbara Streisand song)
