Ive watched a few of your new segments with the FQshop, and I did enjoy the barn raising block 5. I found it a bit hard to stay focused with the long at the machine stitching, but that is because I have been sewing for over 50 years. I too started out in fashion sewing then jumped over to crafts and quilting in 1992. Never looked back. TY for your knowledge sharing.

Can you give me any hints on how to buy old patterns in the correct size. I wear a size 6 or 4 , but if I go by the bust measurements, I would wear a 14 in a vintage. Could that be right?
