She doesn't have paper copies of the book in stock, but you can buy the PDF version, print it out, and have it spiral (or regularly) bound at a copy shop. You can order it here: https://www.apparelartsproductions.com/shop. I'm happy I could help!shamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070023218199309005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-11805528487560349062020-12-20T12:56:07.731-08:002020-12-20T12:56:07.731-08:00Hi Sham, sadly I came across your helpful post too...Hi Sham, sadly I came across your helpful post too late and the site is no longer available. Do you know if Suzy has an alternative site to purchase the book? I’ve googled for hours but no luck and used copies of the book are still at an insane price on Amazon. Thanks in advance.

I've sent my sister the picture of the mammo-grahams. Hilarious! I've just got 60 too and I'm loving it. Hope you are too despite having some health issues.

It is deeply distressing to hear about your health issues -- I hope they will soon be conquered and that you will be back to feeling 100% well again. So good to see that your creativity and spirit of fun have not diminished. The jacket and PJs are excellent! Welcome to the 60s -- they aren't bad at all, and certainly beat the alternatives. Take care and keep sewing and blogging. You are a priceless member of the sewing community.AJWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456164685262822694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-50881670354555489052019-08-19T13:14:39.543-07:002019-08-19T13:14:39.543-07:00Oh, the daughters are ok.

She said, "Good for you to get a blog post out! Now I feel a little guilty." She hasn't been sewing or feeling like blogging, which I totally understand.
