Perhaps because you have so many followers?<br /><br />I like your new shirt and would consider making it for my DH. I think what's missing on this shirt is a print, stripes or plaid I think. It just looks so naked without buttons down the front!<br /><br />BTW, if I'm lucky enough to win something in your draw, I would hope it would be the 1947 Forties frock. I don't think I'll be seeing size 12 for another few months.
