Yeah, it sure is! I picked up the site from steamfashion. I haven't joined it but it's been interesting checking out some of the posts.

I'm working on picking up some patterns finally too, although I'm not doing the bustle type of clothing -- not my thing.

Hopefully I can figure out a nice look for myself over the next year.

LOL, I know you aren't into legwarmers, but I saw a pair in a store the other day that had buttons or snaps down the side, on the bottom half of the tubes -- kinda made them look like spats.
