I just perused JoAnn's again and I am a bit discouraged. I've been through the thrift stores and found ONE pair of capris I could wear. No tops. No jeans. No dresses. No skirts.
I went to Walmart and then Macy's and tried stuff on. Even new I have a hard time finding things that fit me right. Guess I'm shaped weird or just not right for the "fashions". It doesn't help that I'm sneaking up into the next size.
If I'd've found something that fit GOOD in the larger size I would have bo't it. But, I didn't.
So, now I'm going to continue to keep trying to lose that 5-8 lb that is pushing me into the next size and then look again.
I did buy some flannel that was on *sale* for about $8 a yard. Good grief. Now I'm afraid to use it! I'm thinking I need to buy some cheapo muslin at $2 a yard to make up the pattern and practice my sewing before using good material. sigh
