She wore a cute little black sweater, a black patten leather belt, and a cute little black scarf tied around her neck.

    Hi SewRena. I have been looking at all of your thumbnails and it was fun to see your projects. My mother was married in 1950, so seeing this brought me into her world as a young married woman.
    I'm finding it difficult to find a good variety of fabric these days as I too, sew.

    the skirt looks beautiful! I recently have tried adding a applique to a drawstring bag that's a half circle when open and a gartered circle when closed. tried to do a jack o lantern face and it's not bad, but the face looked different when it's round from when I stitched it down. So adding a applique to a circular object is def not easy and you did a great job!

    I quilt and I’m learning garment sewing.
    One thing I have that I’ve used as a layout space for quilting is a piece of foam board covered in cotton batting.
    It holds things well so you can lay your pieces out on a larger scale than a piece of felt.

For skirts, they were circular and of a light weight fabric so that they sat closer to the body. Beautiful video. Thanks
