I'm just a bit excited...... sorta Off Topic, but about sewing... sort of.

It came in the mail today!!!! It is true and happening, at least I got paid for it. A while back DH did some checking and managed to get me a writing assignment. I did an article that is to be in the June "Sew News" magazine!! And I got paid for it. Yipppeeeeeeee.................

The article is about fitting trousers/pants that are too loose in the seat.. Baggy Bottoms or Sagging Seats as we say. So I am to be published. For the first time in a national magazine.
