    And, at the end, quite sweet despite the patina of the era: "WHEN you have completed your dress, it may not be perfect in every respect, but if you have been careful, it will surely be very nice, and something of which you may be very proud, because it represents much care and thought.Finish it well to the last loop, and sew in the dress shields. Take out the basting threads, be sure that the seams are finished, and that it is all in “‘apple-pie order.”Don’t point out to people any defects that may exist.Do not lift up the overskirt to show that the underskirt is pieced down with goods of a different kind.Do not show that the under-arm pieces are faded.Do not tell anybody that the full front covers buttonholes that are torn out.Do not say that the beautiful bias band around the bottom of the skirt hides a ghastly muslin gap. --"

    @khleedril @sewing It opens up possibilities with newer fabrics including super-stretch knits.

    Friendly reminder to watch out for AI pattern scams! Lazy pattern makers will do AI patterns (or just be lazy) and instructions that don't math or fit together A friend just reached out to me regarding a quilt block. The pattern was advertised at 12 inch block when it was 14 inches using the pattern. The pictured design wasn't possible!. The math didn't math.She had already painstakingly color coordinated 8 colors for the design, to coordinate with a 12 inch pre-printed block. So I helped her tweak the block design to keep her 8 fabric choices, to get the math to math.What is worse: she blamed herself! The pattern was garbage, it wasn't her fault at all.#sewing
