- Wool, cotton, and silk can last a lifetime if you give them love and take good care of them. And they don't look cheap!
- Lower-quality acrylics, especially knits, can get very pilly or become shiny. Not a good look, ladies!
- Hems should always be smooth and flat
- Seams should be straight and should lie flat as well. Zero puckering is perfection.
- Patterns and strips should match up at the seams. It looks poorly made when they don't.
- A lining is always a good thing. Don't ever let anyone tell you differently. A lining helps create structure and maintains form.
