Hey all

What have I gotten myself into? Am I really going to be able to sew a retro outfit? What was I thinking?

I mean....hello. I'm Karen from New Mexico and I joined this group rather impulsively. I usually spend hours or days deciding whether I should join something or buy something and then it's too late. I figure you got to break the mold sometime. I have some sewing experience (I took sewing classes when I was younger) and have sewed outfits on my own before. But we shall see how this goes.

At the very least, I can ooh and aah at everything you guys make. Here is a dress I sewed two years ago (has it been that long?) from some fabric I found in my mom's stash back home. It's the closest thing to retro that I've ever made.



Looking forward to starting the first project.
