<DIV></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>Last night at the newcomers' meeting at Mistress Sofia's and
Viscount Eldrid's - I'm a newcomer, um, hi - Tova, Sofia, and Richard were
telling me about little girl garb that were, essentially, jumpers.They were
highly adjustable to grow with the kids. I have three 50% off coupons at Jo-Ann
that I can use, each for a single cut of fabric, so I'm stocking up on fabric
this week to outfit all seven of us in the coming weeks. What type of fabric do
the jumpers use? About how much do I need for each garment, one to fit a chunky
four year-old and one to fit a delicate two year-old? Also, while I have your
attention, if I were to try to make a bodice for my (very rotund) self, what
type of fabric is best? I am thinking something simple, since I am (at best) a
novice seamstress - single color, probably lined in the same fabric, basic
peasanty bodice. And one more thing - corduroy is on sale this week at a good
price, as is fleece. Should I stock up? Are those fabrics I might have use for
down the road when I've sewn more garb and am making more than our bare-bones
starting wardrobe? (I thought fleece might make an acceptable wool-substitute
for cloaks. Or is that wrong-headed?)<BR><BR>Many thanks in advance for any
fabric advice you can give, on any or all of these questions.<BR><BR>Pamela
Flora (still mundanely named, would love to talk to a herald ASAP to rectify
that situation)<BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
