Sherri will present a lecture on how the body changes as we acquire

changed as they matured and clothes don't fit like they used to. Patterns

usually are made for people in their twenties and doctors likewise think

of people in their twenties to be the norm. Sherri has given this

presentation before to the Fashionistas and to the clothing and textile

advisors and is offering it for all our new members who want to sew for

themselves again. See Supply List for additional supplies needed for this
