I end up with a really funny looking skirt and the fabric wasn't really that cheap anyways. <BR/><BR/>I've resigned myself to waiting for things to go on sale and getting part-time jobs there.<BR/><BR/>Although, I am not above embellishing an already-made skirt. I've done that a few times and it has worked out.jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12005460268290465753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179509.post-1170016296952243722007-01-28T13:31:00.000-07:002007-01-28T13:31:00.000-07:00i wish i had paid more attention in my high school...i wish i had paid more attention in my high school sewing class. i'm sort of resigned to just paying whatever those thieves at Anthrologie are askingk8https://www.blogger.com/profile/11840786903333344189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179509.post-1169915143689189362007-01-27T09:25:00.000-07:002007-01-27T09:25:00.000-07:00Denver Fabrics and other independent fabric stores...Denver Fabrics and other independent fabric stores still carry quality fabrics - but be prepared to pay $10 and up even for cotton.

I can make that!"<BR/>and then I never make it! <BR/><BR/>I will say... good luck finding decent fabric.<BR/><BR/>I don't sew as much now as I did in my younger years - but when I want to now... am I the only one who thinks that JoAnn's and Hancock seem to only cater to 'Crafty' types? The fashion selection is pretty scarce. <BR/><BR/>I keep hearing about 'Denver Fabric' or some such name off of Santa Fe ... but I've not made it there yet. <BR/><BR/>repodepot.com has cute stuff too.<BR/><BR/>TRSTRShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801686710086039781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179509.post-1169843133157871562007-01-26T13:25:00.000-07:002007-01-26T13:25:00.000-07:00Leslie-I started with a standard blogger template ...Leslie-I started with a standard blogger template and then switched all the colors and backgrounds by finiding the html numbers for colors I liked. Try http://colormatch.dk/ to find them. <BR/><BR/>Then, for the header I make a picture in PowerPoint or some paint program and upload it to a photo hosting site. I use http://imageshack.us/ and it's worked great for me. <BR/><BR/>For more detail you can just look over all my source code by clicking "View" on the top tool bar and then clicking "source"<BR/><BR/>Thanks for being so nice and saying you like it.
