My mother's name was Lucille, she made all our clothes for awhile -- then she went back to school and got her MSN and started teaching at Georgetown University and working on her PhD; when she survived having 6 teenagers, she decided to go to law school, she got her JD at 60! She just died in January so I'll probably be getting this whether I win it or not! :) It really DOES look like the old fabrics from back then - I started making my own clothes when I was about 12!
Lucille is also my grandmother's name who recently went to be with the Lord. This line reminds me of her. She loved to sew and make things.
Would love to win this!
I love the patterns, they are just luscious! TFS.
