It is the holiday season and many listeners are planning on making a smashing party dress or outfit.  In today's podcast (too long in coming, I'll admit), I share with you the advice given by Constance Talbot in her 1943 sewing book.  It is important to find the right shape for your figure but neckline and sleeves also matter!  Who knew??

After a too long hiatus, where I had to put Grandma's Sewing Cabinet on the back burner to attend to my coaching practice, I am back creating my sewing podcast.  I can't guarantee that I'll post a new postcast every week, but just know that I have missed you, too.
