      @@ZeldaSews Hi Zelda! You are always so kind, thank you. You are in my list of RUclipsrs I want to meet! I was starstruck!
      In the dress, I started at the waist on the side panel of the dress, and graded out with a ruler… I didn’t use the pattern piece on the bottom. I had a comment that I should have kept the side seams as they were… the sides may end up being longer than the center. I will keep you posted on it when I find out for sure!
      Thanks again my friend! Have a blessed week! 🍓♥️

    I am thrilled that you got to see Andra and Cynthia again, AND got to meet Carole. I am absolutely certain those sachet pouches were embroidered for YOU on her machine. She chose that strawberry template for YOU because she has heard and seen what you apparently think about strawberries, darling Diann.
    I got home from an overnight to Fayetteville AR to an unexpected chunky package from Fabric Mart. that I had completely forgotten about. I had only OPENED and examined my last order which was received just before Fabric Mart's website transition.
    I don't have a need for adaptive clothing yet, but remember a friend who had a port for infusions during the last years of her life. I believe she had a local dressmaker make openings that could be covered by a "pocket" flap or zipped closed. They sounded very much like a couple of garments I bought 33 years ago to facilate breastfeeding of my infant son. I think that investigating techniques or skills we can transfer to the benefit of ourselves or loved ones is useful even if we don't need to use those skills right now. ❤ you, Diann. Blessings on you and your husband this coming week. Greetings from the Ozarks! -Kelly

    So much fun hearing about your meetup with wonderful RUclips sewing friends! Your top is a lovely color on you and a great style. As for the fabric buying, well, accidents happen...😄. I am glad your doctor is hopeful a longer interval between treatments may work out for you and will continue to pray for you. My husband and I had to unexpectedly care for a lovely second cousin of his at the end of her life this year, including planning her funeral. There was stress in trying to make sure we did things as well as we could but it was also a gift to be able to help her when she needed it and then honor her with the funeral arrangements as it was our last chance to do something for her in this world. I have no doubt everything you did for your uncle was the right and best thing to do.

    Hi, Diann! Love from sunny and warm West Sacramento with food and power -- things we take for granted until they are gone. Somehow I got the impression that you live on a hill like Jamie and Claire Fraser (Outlander) settled. They ate strawberries, fell in love with the view, made love, and chose the location to settle -- Fraser's Ridge! I hope your daughter, family, church family -- all you and yours are dry and well and have power. To my mind, NC is a sort of cultural center, an artist's colony for the whole country. I pray all the supplies, samples, book drafts, pictures, etc. are high and dry or can be recovered. I did hear from Folkwear, and they are doing pretty well, no damage. Much love!
