Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 25, 2010 Yes, I did. I have been sewing my clothes for the last 5 or 6 years. The dress is handmade, and I'm almost done with another. Will post pictures when it is done.The pendant was a Christmas gift from my husband in 2008, I love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxpoly 0 Posted June 25, 2010 wow this is amazing you make very beautiful clothes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted June 25, 2010 Thank you. That's very encouraging, considering that one woman in my class told me that I was too pale to wear white or light colors. I was pretty angry about that. I like to wear light colors in the summer because it's cooler than darker ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
