Those are usually the ones I abandon for a time and just let it be until I feel ready to pick it up again. <BR/><BR/>I'm really interested to see how your sundress turns out!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00099894422067181971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615959.post-1153207635571291422006-07-18T03:27:00.000-04:002006-07-18T03:27:00.000-04:00I think designing requires too much brain power. ...I think designing requires too much brain power.

I think it will help with what you're going for. <BR/><BR/>The sundress--do you have any muslin fabric? Or old sheets?
