Rather than writing about sewing this one specific dress, the words that poured out of me were focused on the power I feel when I make my own clothes and how it has changed my mental and emotional relationship with my body. It never fails to amaze me how sometimes the creative muse takes me in a completely different direction than I initially intended!<\/p>\n<h1>Angie&#8217;s Shout-Out<\/h1>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61758 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016-blog-ClaireG.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"52\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016-blog-ClaireG.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016-blog-ClaireG-300x22.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016-blog-ClaireG-600x45.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppecommunity.com\/gallery\/showphoto.php?photo=723434\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-80425 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/angiekey-shoutout-claireg.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/angiekey-shoutout-claireg.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/angiekey-shoutout-claireg-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/angiekey-shoutout-claireg-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sweetshoppedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/angiekey-shoutout-claireg-400x400.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Angie loves &#8220;Perfect Pair&#8221; by ClaireG:<\/strong> &#8220;I was blown away by Claire&#8217;s take on the Scrap In A Shape challenge. She placed her journaling in the shape of a sexy high heel &#8211; simply perfect for recording the story of her love affair with shoes. I especially like the details she included about dance parties with her husband during the 2020 lockdown. It&#8217;s a sweet anecdote that provides an additional dimension to her story; it&#8217;s no longer just about her obsession with footwear, but it also gives some insight into her relationship with her husband.
