Justsewit, The little white dress sounds so pretty. I can’t wait to see photos! My collection of AS&E isn’t as extensive as yours. I am missing most of the issues prior to #21 with just four exceptions. I think that I am going to try to find #18 as that little picture of the romper in the Index has charmed me. You certainly will be busy for…[Read more]

Grr! Feeling grumpy at the moment over the fact that I found out that my daughter’s class is going on a camp next term and I have NOT received any informtation from school! I queried Imogen and she swears she didn’t get anything. So I had to ring the school and have it be sent through. We have to pay prior to them going. I am just so disappointed…[Read more]

@karen Thank you! I will have a look at that fox dress. Off into town today to see what I can find, ready made or fabric.
Regarding the Badminton Skort, I have always found it quite true to size. Mine is up on my blog now although I still haven’t had time to photograph it on her.

@KAREN yes I have both issue 18 and 84 and I actually used the Tiffany pattern to make a dress for a neibour’s daughter when she turned one year old (she is now turning 7) I was a subscriber so have most of them with only a couple of the early issues missing from the collection. I am making the size 6 months as she still fits this size and the…[Read more]

I looked up both of your smocking plates, Justsewit, and I love them both. Have you started the smocking on the bonnet? What size dress are you making? You must be very fast at smocking and embroidery to have plans to do so many smocked things by Sunday. You inspire me!

If you have AS&E#18 ( I don’t have this one), there is a charming set of…[Read more]

@KAREN I pulled the issue out and you know I went to their blog but forgot to enter it, thinking I should tell them but I forgot the issue number. I will send a note on to them. I spent much of yesterday afternoon trying to sort out the threads as it seems I don’t have the silk threads in the colours that the magazine has stated. So I will have to…[Read more]

@KAREN thankyou. His insurance is covering it and apparently he gets to go shopping in Paris! Thank goodness for insurance!

@dubhels2003 urgh! You poor thing and poor baby! Lots of calamine and pinetarsel, cuddles and rest. What a yucky unfortunate case to deal with!

You all are in my prayers, too! Poor baby with chicken pox!

Justsewit, your nephew is in my prayers, too. So sorry about his luggage and phone. Has the luggage turned up yet?

Oh, Sarvi, I am so sorry about the length of the Bubble dress. I think short dresses are adorable on little girls but I understand the very strict dress code. I hope that she can wear the dress at other times. Did the zipper work out on the Fairy Tale?

Justsewit, I can’t wait to see the smocked goodies you have planned! I tried to find that…[Read more]
