Sewing Notes-Alterations
Aug. 11th, 2007 09:01 amTopic: Alterating historical garments
Why bother? Each dress is an investment: money, time, heart. I don't part with any of these lightly. If they can be recycled, I will recycle them as my first option.
I hate to reinvent the wheel, so I'm jotting down my notes on sewing. This is going to be an entry that is updated and moved forward in my calendar as I make progress. This is not about the research that went into designing and constructing this outfit, it's strictly about altering it due to weight loss.
