My girls are going to be Elsa and Anna this year. I had to muddle through two separate Simplicity patterns. “Elsa” is in adults sizes but still shaped like a kid and “Anna” was just one size too big for the little girl patterns. Bodice muslins were my friends. Oliver and S needs to make a V waist dress pattern. That work work great for many of the…[Read more]

I made the ultimate chocolate cake for a Halloween party (cupcakes) The cake is sensational–flavorful, moist and easy to make. I can’t wait to try the ganache icing.

Has anyone been successful using small whale corduroy for the long-sleeve, A-line version of the Jump Rope Dress?

Has anyone used small whale corduroy for the long-sleeve version of the jump rope dress? How did the placket go?

I have a lovely-colored small whale corduroy I’d like to use for my granddaughter’s holiday dress. Has anyone successfully used corduroy for the long-sleeve version of the jumprope dress?

@motherof5 Nicole, yes I found it in the ‘free from’ section of my supermarket along with all the other special diet ingredients. I know it is in health food shops as well.
I really enjoyed the cake and didn’t miss the sugar. My husband said it wasn’t sweet enough for him. But he has 3 sugars in his tea and sugar on his cereal so his expectations…[Read more]

I might have to book my daughter in for sewing lessons with someone else. She sat and watched as I showed her how to thread it and how to fill the bobbin but that was the extent of it all. She has been using her charm pack to practise sewing straight and making them into basic bags. She wants to sew something for Chloë but in true teen style, she…[Read more]

Does something we just made count? Like the dress I made here on my blog, it’s my favorite O+S mash up so far!

If we’re tagging old photos I’d better go and tag half my photos 🙂
Do we put the tag in the “tag” section of the photo on flicker or just in the comments?

Happily it may be the push I need to redo my all time favourite pattern mash in a new, bigger size. It was the back if the After School pants on modified front of the Field Trip. I made about five pairs in the end…

Well done Tamara!
I helped my nephew sew about half of his new onesie, we were covered in bits of black and yellow fluff from the coral fleece. He did really well, including inserting the zip and making pockets.
Then my niece, who is 6, unpicked (by herself) the straps on the bag she made a few weeks ago. And reattached them, and the Velcro, to…[Read more]
