Use this picture to advertise your wares...it’s a blogger for Minerva crafts. No matter what your taste this just isn’t a good advertisement

That's not a good look.  Needs a d**n good press....

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

It certainly needs some exposure to a decent steam iron.

A good press would help but but there appears to be fitting problems too.
Ugh!

Hmmm.
I suppose if all people are used to is cheap (or not so cheap) rtw c*** then this would be an upgrade.
Life's too short for ironing.

Before anyone goes near it with an iron it needs the bust letting out, the hem taking down then a good pressing and the hem redoing. I would be ashamed to wear that in any picture let alone a blog  :S

Also sort the placing of the skirt pleats and do something about the waist seam.

I think she should put it in the rag bag and make something else.
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.
