As for the whole EU thing, what a mess.

It's also how you finish the vents on the Named Inari dress.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06525020848581000170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8209080131494479770.post-14041644765512958792016-07-04T20:26:18.678+01:002016-07-04T20:26:18.678+01:00You address the EU vote so much more eloquently th...You address the EU vote so much more eloquently than I did & I agree absolutely with you. Also I have never, will never say 'Brexit'. <br />Your skirt looks so perfect! I love the length, the buttons, and the thought you've put into making it exactly as you wanted it. You must be so happy with it!Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05183395919767332073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8209080131494479770.post-51721477380846344812016-07-04T20:25:16.695+01:002016-07-04T20:25:16.695+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05183395919767332073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8209080131494479770.post-8287429643255515012016-07-04T16:19:30.517+01:002016-07-04T16:19:30.517+01:00Lovely skirt!

I am not in Britain but I was also shocked by it. Sewing has also helped me in the past to deal with difficult things. I hope it all works out for the best in the end.

I'm pretty sure I can draft a full length button band but I knew there was a way of getting a neat finish on it but I haven't been able to find a tutorial. So now I have no excuses for not finishing my shirt!<br /><br />(oh, and most excellent skirt you've made too, love the secret birds)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
