Sewing failures
Thank you so much LizzieMaine! I knew about the pre-cut sizes and so made sure that the ones that I purchased were to my size but I just wanted to double check to make sure that cup sizes were not a factor. You are a wealth of knowledge and a lifesaver :)- cassylynn

Sewing failures
So I have a sewing/pattern question for you ladies and decided this may be the best thread to post in since I lost count of how many dresses & blouses I have made and they do not fit. Fail.

make-up for a recovering tomboy
I'm glad to see I'm not the only "vintage" gal that doesn't wear a lot of makeup. I noticed that after I turned 28 my face couldn't handle foundation -- I breakout something terrible. Now 5 years later foundation seems to enhance fine wrinkles so I don't even waste my precious dollars. I haven't... -

Excuse me Miss, do you Blog?
I decided to start a blog when I opened up my Etsy shop. It was an easy way to display what was new in the shop and keep everyone involved in what I was doing. I had never blogged before and so I'm horrible at keeping up with it. I try to look at it like I'm working on a lifetime scrapbook, of...- cassylynn

Show us your vintage knitting and crochet!
Vintage Crochet I have a few vintage crochet patterns, one of which is throwing me off with the yarn that is suggested. It calls for Dawn Worsted Floss. I've searched the internet for Worsted Floss and nothing. The only thing that I can figure is that it is a fingering yarn? Does anyone else...- cassylynn
