I guess I have to buy everything online now. I guess JoAnn Fabrics and Sally Beauty will go out of business since they didn't move with the times. Sally Beauty still carries absolutely nothing for nail stamping or gels. And here's stodgy old JoAnn's who's not even trying. I mean, they don't even carry cute buttons! That doesn't take a lot of space on the floor. Stupid idiots should teach sewing classes instead of craft projects and cake decorating. The lady who cut my fabric doesn't sew. Asked me what interfacing was. You gotta create customers in a skill-based company. I'm right now on the Bramble Berry site ordering supplies. Know what they have? Endless classes and recipes and ideas. Companies need to embrace the internet or they'll fail.
I talked with the manager of my local Joann's store and he told me that he'd complained loudly to his upper management about the fact that he didn't have a good selection of apparel fabrics as well as the fact that local folks--like me--not only didn't like buying fabric sight unseen, most of us wouldn't.
He did mention that he'd been sent a few bolts (He suspected mostly just to shut him up) but nothing like the massive shipments he'd been used to getting back before 2009.

I love your new vest!
And the buttons look straight enough to meet my own finacky standards.
Although I can't really see your shoulders, the vest looks like it fits you well through the chest area.
So what do your think of your dress form now?
