Goods Man
I'm quite into my sewing, me.
I'm currently fashioning a dress to wear to a wedding in a couple of weeks, primarily so that I can say, when people ask, "What, this? Oh, it's just something I threw together for the occasion...". The danger is, of course, that people will furtively point and mutter close-mouthed "What is she wearing? It looks like she threw it together". It's Vogue pattern No. 2494, fact fans.
Anyway, for a couple of years I bought Burda's pattern magazine which had loads of designs every month. Lots of work, and I never actually completed anything I started, which is the story of my life. Today I took an urge to seek it out again, but of course, the Burda magazine is all in German, and my German sucks bigtime. So I translated it via the magic of Google and got this, which is better in every way from the original:
Camp Field Gallery
Long, narrowly, catchless (catchless?) - the blazer is elegance purely! The special attraction lies in the many division seams. They guarantee not only the perfect seat (eh?), but also the interesting look: The individual part consist times of poplin, time of satinstretch. Thus refined matte gloss effects develop (and to think I've always wanted a jacket with refined matte gloss effects). Further highlight is the slim sleeve. It is slit at the seam and approaches on the handrueken pointedly (thank God for that. I hate a sleeve that doesn't approach the handrueken pointedly). The coronation/culmination is the strengthened shoulder - absolutely camp field, absolutely point! (absolutely impossible to work out what they are getting at!)
"Goods Man" is the source that is listed all over the site for zips and things. I think. It's difficult to be sure. Have a look here
Six on a caper! Thus the order functions.

What?
(or: )
Mmmmmm... many division seams....
I'm so jealous that you can make clothes. I am completely useless around a sewing machine. Absolutely camp field!
Gorgeous dress! I love the flippy scarfy thing. I applaud your sewing abilities, my mom taught me when I was nine but me and sewing machines had a bit of a falling out when I grew up. Too bad, that.
Mmmmmmm, Goods Man....
I never said I could make clothes, what I am really excellent at is starting to make clothes. I may post pics if I ever finish it (unlikely). I have, for example, a largeish tapestry which I have been working on since I was 12. Asolutely point!
On a completley different note, I, the epitome of evil, have stolen your source code to make the "Badge of Evil" work properly on my site.
BWAH hahahaha.....
Ha.
Um, is that cool with you?
You are the Overlady of Evil. Make free with the code!
You must scroll over it with your mouse...BWAH hahahaha. Little surprise for you.
