Was talking with my dsis on how patterns were such a great thing they had the pic on the front of the
garment for a visual reference, vision of the things. And all the things we got for it on the back we needed
like zipper thread yardage stiffener stability stuff and the project had all that was needed. Now that is a
super way to have things so when the seaming does actually happen the prep. has happened.
Like having a plan with directions too in with the pattern pieces.

Unlike when guys start a project and have to keep running to the home improvement center
we call it "Home Stink-o" here! LOL! For what ever nuts bolts screws random piece of hardware needed.

I keep running out of items for projects that is super frustrating, ribbon, buttons, elastcic for waist band,
trim bias tape... you get the idea. Batting quilt back. I have not even thought about the after the top part of it yet.
It would be good to know the size at least. Some times I've used sheets for the backing.

Okay I need to do something else now....
