I learned how to sew cartridge pleats from her, for one thing! :) <br />I would love hiking up there! Mmmm. I love Duluth.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15235395280071814298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266734708350378757.post-1265959301472876242015-11-01T23:40:45.893-05:002015-11-01T23:40:45.893-05:00I hope you post progress of your vacation sewing o...I hope you post progress of your vacation sewing on the blog so we can see your new pretties. :) Yes, it is a special feeling to wear a new outfit for the first time, especially when it was sewn with a purpose/event/destination in mind. I like the sounds of your historical dresses!!! Check out "Historical Sewing.com" if you are not familiar yet with it, Jennifer Rosbrough has wonderful advice on the 1830's (and every other time period too! I've learned SOOO much from her.) Oh yes, hiking is wonderful fun, especially up North, as you saw..... ;) If you lived closer I'd take you along on our next adventure! I realize I didn't mention what I got at Hancock when I wrote, I'll have to tell you all about that story, as it is a really neat one. :) Awww, another excuse to write!Sarah A.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266734708350378757.post-40154834363733001582015-10-31T13:25:58.014-04:002015-10-31T13:25:58.014-04:00Thanks, Sarah!!

My favorite collection that I have been working on for a while is all of the popular Nelson Eddy and Jeanette MacDonald duets in sheet music. All of your sewing finds are terrific! Have fun sewing!

You're too sweet! :)<br />My idea of having all "new" clothes for our trip is probably slightly far-fetched, but it's still my goal. It makes it so neat to get to wear something completely unworn for the first time! :) We're going south, so I'm thinking of a couple of sundress-type dresses, plus an 1820s and an 1830s dress, and I don't know what else! We never do any hiking on vacation though, we just sort of act like tourists. ;) The hiking sounds awfully fun though!<br />I wish they still sold dresses like that too!!! I think we were both definitely born in the wrong era. <br />Thanks so much for your comment, Sarah!! :) I can't wait to hear what you got at Hancock!Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15235395280071814298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266734708350378757.post-24799217993663806032015-10-31T09:42:43.535-04:002015-10-31T09:42:43.535-04:00I practically at a loss for words!

The buckles alone are jaw droppingly amazing, but to have found this whole slew of items in one weekend is beyond in impressive. Way to go - and many thanks for sharing about your awesome scores with all of us. They're soooo pretty!!!!!<br /><br />Big hugs,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266734708350378757.post-29356498632756417692015-10-30T23:30:54.893-04:002015-10-30T23:30:54.893-04:00This is such a great haul.

The fabrics you found are just lovely. (I recently visited a Hancock's for the first time and boy did I find a lot. FUN!!!) I had to smile at your comment of making new clothes for your trip. What a fun project! I'm afraid I usually pack OLD clothes for our vacations, but then we do a lot of hiking so new things would get spoiled. And I think I'll take one of each of the dresses advertised in the little booklet. Why oh why can't they still sell clothes like that today?! Thanks for sharing your shopping adventure with us. You write such a good article, it felt like I was right there with you excited over what you found. Have a great day, Esther! Sarah A.noreply@blogger.com
