HisChild Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 WOOOOHOOOO! I got my fabric in the mail to make my postulant uniforms, my nighties, and my apron! I wasn't sure where to post this but was bubbling over so I had to start a new thread! I suppose this is where I'll do my countdown! I leave April 22nd! PCPA2Be AKA Denise
jgirl Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 That's awesome! I'm scared for making my postulant uniform! I don't have any of the info yet, but I couldn't sew if my life depended on it, and my mom is always travelling for work. It's bad when the 12 year old inner city girls say things like, "You don't want Miss Jenny to help you unless you be really desperate!" Random question: do you sew your habit when you're a postulant?

As for the habit itself, yes, you do help sew it, with the assistance of whoever is the seamstress.

[right][snapback]887813[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Well my mom's strong point isn't creating patterns. I was given an extra dress and told to either find a close pattern or make a pattern. I'm going to be working with someone to make a pattern. Same thing with the apron. You should SEE the nightgown! It's beautiful! I also like to cut out. I love to sew but don't have a machine, so I let my mom help because she's good at it. you know? Your sister! Denise

HisChild Posted February 15, 2006 Author Posted February 15, 2006 It is floor length, cream colored, with long sleeves with the 'romantic' type ruffles on them. The collar is flat with a couple of buttons. I will, apparently have a head covering to wear at night, praise be to Jesus! Even our night clothes are wonderful!
