I’m wondering, if Liesl might stock it in her shop if there was enough interest? The last link looked really great a d I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on some decent see throug rulers. And also the grid paper that is used for pattern making. It might help with the many many alterations I have to do.

Thanks, y’all! I am genuinely surprised how hard it is to find! I found this one: http://www.fashion-school.com.au/products/pattern-makinggrading-ruler/ , in case anyone else is on the hunt. I do love the combo inches/metric option — thanks for all the suggestions!!

Yes, that was the message that was sent to several members here on the forums. Sorry, again, for the inconvenience.

@needlewoman so glad you made it back on Fi! Yes I was one of those “lucky” people who got the message also. To me it was such an obvious “this is a hoax” type email. They are not very imaginative when it comes to things like this that is for sure.

Yeah, me too, dubhels. Aren’t some people ‘ordinary’? Luckily, we have each other on this forum to suss the fakers out. I did see Todd’s post about the scammer but my email was dated later, and I just wanted to be sure. Sorry that you ladies were ‘puzzled’ too. C’est la vie. On a happier note, I hope you all had a nice Mothers’ Day, last weekend.…[Read more]

Give them a call- I’ve bought a metric ruler from them at the international quilt show, so I know they stock them, they just don’t have it on their website.

Shouldn’t the discussion topics relate to sewing?

Ditto for me, needlewoman. I also received email from someone who wanted to contact me for friendship.This person also claimed to have read my profile. Like you, I do not have a profile. I’m sure it’s the spam message Oliver + S referred to in the email.

There’s a message from oliver + s which probably appears above your post which talks about a spam message. I think it’s that one. For a moment I thought I had a friend 😉

@jay_1965vw that is good news! It will be nice to be home. It is a shame your overseas stay is hurting your hubby’s career though it is an experience your whole family will grow from – and Dot especially being born overseas, that is pretty special too. It isn’t an everyday thing so you are pretty fortunate to have the opportunity. Still, there is…[Read more]
