It's all in the stars

Hedy Lamarr in 'Ziegfeld Girl', costume by Adrian

Something a bit different this week. It's actually nothing to do with actress and inventor Hedy Lamarr; but I needed a star-related image, and this one was too fabulous not to use.

When I was looking through some of my old copies of Vogue Pattern Book I came across a lighthearted article, 'An Astrological guide to your sewing personality'. As I did learn to sew very young, from watching my mum, my assessment seemed quite accurate. So read on, and see if yours is a match as well.
