I Have Seen Your Future

On Sunday I measured Miss Riah for her princess costume for Hallowe'en. You'll remember that this little sweetheart just turned five at the end of May. You'll remember also that her mother had two aunts who were over six feet tall, and that her mother is 5'11".

Her main measurements, according to the pattern envelope, were size 5-6. But her back waist measurement, the length of her torso above the waist, was longer than the size 7-8 pattern.

I see a long retirement career ahead, making clothing for this young lady. I'm thinking she's not going to be able to find things she likes that will also fit her in any store!
