Your no waste theory reminded me of my grandmother. She never wasted anything. <br />She and I had purchased the most lovely wool fabric and I had a pattern I wanted to try. My grandmother immediately had a fit about the pattern. She said it was a waste of fabric. So she taught me how to make a skirt without a pattern and no waste. I was a teenager at the time and did not understand the gift she had given me. susan hemannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17784893342890918275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053562711351336005.post-31681692979797690252014-03-24T19:24:38.286+10:302014-03-24T19:24:38.286+10:30More Second Skin classes?
