Dear dress A Day Readers,
I hope you had a marvelous holiday, with lots of loved and charming people around and laughing and eating delicious things. I had a wonderful time myself, and part of that was thanks to all of you!
I know the gift of your kind attention wasn’t really a holiday one (more of an all-year thing, thank you!) but because of your attention, all sorts of really great people have wanted to advertise on this site … which led to me being able to get a brand new sewing MACHINE! (I made a decision to use any money raised by ads for this site for good — that is, a lot more sewing — instead of evil.)
Here it is, isn’t she lovely? (Click on the image to check out the valuable folks at sew Vac Direct.)
So far I have made two shirtdresses. Yes, two. With the collars and the buttonholes and everything, and one was even Liberty-print! (The other was polka-dot. I’ll have pictures probably early next week.) The maker is like a dream for buttonholes. I’ve always wanted my own robot, and now I have one! A robot that makes buttonholes, the best kind.
So — thank you all so much! (And thank you to our charming advertisers, too.) I love the new maker and I pledge to use it A LOT.
Yours,
Erin
