Hello from Perth, Australia

I have enjoyed sewing on and off since I was a teen. I never had a problem with fitting till I hit menopause, and my body changed in subtle ways that gave me grief over and over. I decided I needed help and I am currently working with a professional pattern maker to create my personal block patterns. Once perfected, I will be able to delve into much more couture sewing than previous. After all, how much time and hand stitching do you want to put into garments you know won't fit and flatter? Whilst I know some techniques, I have a lot to learn. Thank you Marina for creating and managing this forum and thank you Kat for alerting me to this site.
