I wanted to learn to sew so that, if necessary, I could sew some modest pieces for my daughters, particularly when they are older. I don't think I'll do too much sewing for myself because, with enough effort, I can find the items I need in the marketplace. But the effort can be overwhelming, especially trying to find modest clothing for middle-school girls and young ladies. If I learn how to sew well, surely that's got to help me, maybe even simply modifying some storebought clothing to make it more acceptable.<br /><br />Yes, maternity skirts (that aren't micro-length) are nearly impossible to find. I've been really pleased to find some resources for them online, particularly New Creations.Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054597409182035433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825174029351412249.post-90089871239552713372011-06-13T14:29:08.228-04:002011-06-13T14:29:08.228-04:00Thank you for compiling and sharing this list!
I&...Thank you for compiling and sharing this list!<br /><br />I'd also like to recommend "ModBod," and one item in particular (the only one I have, actually) that I really like: http://www.themodbod.com/products/Perfect-Cap-Sleeve<br /><br />I learned of this line of clothes when they were at Costco as a special temporary item. I bought two cap sleeve tees at that time and LOVE them. I always wear them as undershirts, as they are form fitting but have a nice high neckline and a long body. They are GREAT for nursing layers! Although the neckline is high, it is stretchy enough to be pulled down under one's breast, but it is also resilient and goes right back to it's original place, thouroughly covering one's cleavage. They have not lost their shape and provide much more coverage than the typical camisole. <br /><br />Also, I was curious... have you gotten into sewing b/c you've found it to be a good (the best?) way of having the types of clothes you are looking for for your girls, or were you interested in it anyways, and that has been a good use of the hobby? Also, have you or will you make your own clothes, or do you find that easier to just buy?<br /><br />...I tried to find some skirts to add to my maternity wardrobe this last pregnancy and I couldn't believe how hard it was to find ANY skirts! Not even maternity skirts. I was just shopping for one or two sizes larger than what I usually wear and there was virtually nothing to choose from. I think that is when I got the big idea to make my own skirts, but I discovered that it costs about the same to buy the patterns, material and notions as it would to buy a ready-to-wear skirt. Plus the time to make it. Nonetheless, the patterns I chose are more precicesly what I want style-wise, and I don't really have any time or energy to browse stores looking for the "perfect" article of clothing anyways. I look forward to making them...someday!!Sarah H.

They sell headcoverings (not chapel veils, but snoods and such). My black snood I use in Mass is from there. It's a wonderful option for a mama with a little one who wants to pull off the chapel veil constantly.

I've drifted away from skirts since my third pregnancy. :-/ <br /><br />I love Hanna and Land's End for modest, classy boys' clothes. It's so hard to find items that don't have characters, smart aleck-y comments, or other objectionable graphics. Their clothes also just cannot be worn out!Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397886444398204729noreply@blogger.com
