I think that is such a good attitude to have when we're sewing for ourselves. Those extra little touches may not be visible to anyone else, but it's still really nice to have them there all the same. :)amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12029076436322883513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-1581521259884000992010-02-01T11:17:32.146-05:002010-02-01T11:17:32.146-05:00Great pants.
