My blouse and a blurb about it and me in the Reader’s Closet spread on Page 81 of Threads Magazine issue # 174

I’ve officially made it in print!!! Threads Magazine contacted me after I posted my silk bow blouse made from McCalls pattern 6650 from silk charmeuse purchased at Fabric Depot in Portland, OR on their Threads Insider membership page.

They asked if they could feature my blouse in an issue of their magazine. I was delighted of course and accepted the honor and flattery! Not to mention the publicity!!! So I sent them my blouse to their publication headquarters in Connecticut and voila! Here I am, smack dab in my favorite sewing publication, read by thousands of sewing enthusiasts, praised for my work and creation!

Time to celebrate!!!!!

    Hi Stephanie,

    I came across your blog and this blouse via a Google search, it is absolutely stunning! I am curious if you do work for others or only yourself? I would be very interested in having a replica of this blouse made for me, if you are interested. Feel free to contact me at jamiekjohnson@comcast.net if you are; thanks!
