The ladies on this list are all so talented. I feel honored just to be able to say I belong! Penny is currently wearing a mock up of a Victorian bodice that has been altered to show off the lady's charms. Petula is doubling as a photo prop for various men's vests and Pricilla is draped in my daughter's Fall coat that needs to be repaired. Petula is cranky and says I need an Adonis. I live near Los Angeles- & with out it costing me too much money are there any suggestions where I can look? I've had to make several men's frock coats lately and they just don't fit right on my ladies. Paula
