I must say, Cathy > Jake anyday! Also, the idea of a Cathy-fantasy-sew along is brilliant... I am very excited! I have a habit of buying dresses I love (only when they reach dirt cheap, so this has happened three times maybe) and then finally having the right occasion to wear it a few years later, so I'm also a big believer in "build the gown and the event will happen!"

And summer is always busy, but I may just have to make Cathy's fantasy sew-along a major priority. Now I will spend the better part of the day thinking about my stash of (far too many) glamorous patterns that I really haven't have occasion to use, trying to pick out just the one I want to make for the sew along.T.

I won't be making one, just watching. I remember my Grandmother use to make evening gowns and wedding gowns back in the 40/50/60's all on a treadle sewing machine.<br />I wished I had paid more attention.<br /><br />Like everyone else I am looking forward to the Audrey Hepburn number. I love this site, it is so fun.JosetteKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14914250955369503213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-73345970721590717722011-04-19T12:16:51.406-04:002011-04-19T12:16:51.406-04:00A Cathy sewalong?

I would bet anything that the event would come up if I had the gown first! Never thought of that before! Can't wait to see Cathy's version of Charade with the Bill Blass thriller! So glad you liked it!<br /><br />xoxo,<br />SunniSunnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16380215145775412897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-63597527558283967812011-04-19T11:58:18.583-04:002011-04-19T11:58:18.583-04:00Fantasy sew-along sounds like fun.
