Do you still have the piece that you cut out? could you tape it back in place? I’m sure you’d have thought of that already. I don’t know if I have the smaller size but when I get a chance I’ll have a look and see.

The skirt and/or bodice of the ice cream dress works well with small cuts of fabric too.

I have made the ice cream dress several times and love it. I have a paper copy of the smaller sizes and made one last night for a baby gift in the 6-12 month size.
But, I accidentally cut the neckline of the size 4 (on both the paper pattern and the fabric). I didn’t notice until the dress was done.
Could someone let me know approximately…[Read more]

Ooh sounds rather strict! You could argue that there are such things as two piece dresses so you tried the opposite – a one piece blouse and skirt?

I managed to sew the little after school blouse during sleeptime, all the way up to the last cuff and the buttons. The cuff is now sewn but the buttons are pretending to be attached. Clever me sewed…[Read more]

I added an inch to the centre front fold and the back for a baby Bubble dress, it was a lovely poofi-ness.

Most annoyed that I couldn’t find a good piece of linen suitable for the Sandbox trousers — wound up cutting them from a sandy cotton … something, not sure what to call it. Not twill, but heavier weight, like that. Speck of stretch to it, I think, it’s a bit hard to tell.

Well I have green eyes now! Would love to go shopping in New York! I was going to say happy shopping Sarvi but I see you didn’t actually get to. Maybe next time.

@katybellabug Brittney’s playtime fox dress would be perfect and it looks simple and straight forward. They didn’t give you heaps of time! But then maybe they think you have a magic sewing wand (like people here think I have)! Hope you can get it done. I don’t know what the hood looks like so in my point of view the fox playtime looks the…[Read more]
