Awesome! Was waiting for the steps, wld try this out tonight cos tomorrow would be a no show.
I like that the steps are easy to follow and well laid out.

Here's my ankara- ds is goin to be such fun o! Can't wait for saturday! Thx onna!

Nervous cos we were introduced by friends n havnt met in person. Used the title 'boyfriend' so u guys can contribute ur suggestions quickly. We actually click and there IS a connection but I'm still nervous cos ... U know :-(
Pls u guys, air ur views, in other words encourage me :-).I'v nevr felt insecure bout my bosoms before. We talk randomly so he jst askd casually while talkn bout somethng d@ had t do wth bosoms n I said I'm small, he then asked if they were flat as a guys n I said no cos they aren't... But still..

easterbabe:
I suggest you match your needle size to the weight of the sheer fabric ( try a size 9 needle) and for the Jersey fabric, you need to use Jersey needles. I know these are not readily available here though.I'll try and post here more often to share the little I know with other sewing enthusiasists.

We like to contradict/confuse ourselves sha!
"I know these are not readily available here though."
"I suggest you match your needle size to the weight of the sheer fabric ( try a size 9 needle) and for the Jersey fabric, you need to use Jersey needles. "
D poster didn't say u shouldn't match ur needles with your fabric,u missed the part where she mentioned matching needles to fabric actually-she said 'choose ur needles according to ur fabric's heaviness'. from what I understand she suggestd making use of paper when the jersey needle isn't available. We are in naija and some resources are hard to find but I'm thankful for threads like this.

Hello all! N happy new year to u all. Its sew quiet in here dz dayz? Wat a gwan?! :-)

My nairaland girl crush! C y I voted u for poster of d year?! U always add value to nairaland. Gud work girl and kip it up. Ds DIY is genius,wl try it out n safety pins r ver affordable.

@ ijebabe: pls r u ijeoma ndekwu? Thot to ask if u don't mind.

Well, I guess it has to do with the people who stepped forward to vote. As more people vote, we'll get to see more names.although I chose onnari because not only are her posts relevant, she offers tips,guides,suggestions to readers and inspires others 2. Anyways, it' s only poster of the year, dis one no be president of nairaland lol!

Yeah me 2, she has my vote. Buh y aren't people voting? Mod abi u go carry the topic go front page?

I'l just go to their office and ask them to erase whatever promo code is active on my fone. It's insanity and I can't evn enjoy my BIS cos u cnt use ur BIS on glo if u don't have @ least 50 naira on ur fone. I feel like. Slapping som1 rily, still pissed! Thx ald same for ur contribution. D@ helps

This has happened 4 times in 2 weeks now and so far they have stolen a thousand naira. They just erased my account yet again, now who can I complain to whn this is a weekend and even at that your cusomer service is so crappy and is never available?Pls if you(glo)cannot afford promos STOP! Instead of robbing innocent subscribers to keep up with ur silly awoof. Which we are paying for unknowingly. Mscheew!

I. Like ppl who. Think outside d box. Brilliant! Cnt wait to c what u been working on

Hello aysha, I sure will

Press releases/adverts. Sales wl b mostly via an online store so ts Accessible. But. As online card payments r nt very practical in nigeria,other means cn b employed as well such as online transfers while items r delivered t customers' doorsteps

I design and produce clothing of al kinds, from natives,casuals,formal,evening to bridal. My clothes r all about quality,attainability and above al affordability. I don't belive in ridiculous pricing @ d same time not sacrificing qualit n standards. N seeing d@ I began with average nigerians (students inclusive) I am thinking of starting a high street label where u cld get a dress e.g an ankara dress with world acceptable standard for as low as 4500 naira. Pls I need ur thots n suggestions as part of my research as I wnt my designs to b within d reach of d average nigerian cos out there,not many labels r catering to this target market. Thnx in advance :-)
