Reply To: Have you ever worn something you made yourself?

Probably not your intention Laura,, but here goes

I’ve posted about “Sewing” before, but I just thought of something else I “made”.

Some 50 years ago or so my ex and I went to a fancy dress party.. Now before you all get your hopes up, my ex hated anything to do with Caty.. so… I got hold of two old hessian sacks, cut neck and arm holes in them and we went as “two old bags”..

I was “lucky” enough to wear a wig, lipstick, one of my mother’s bras under the “bag dress” with “bird seed boobs”. That hessian did not “arf itch after an hour or four…Probably wore no more than sneakers on my feet, heels would have caused “questions”….

I was very jealous of my (slimmer) younger brother.. He made a lovely Milkmaid…
