Hi @admin — I’m terribly sorry but I’m afraid I’m not able to recall what I was using at the time. I feel it *should* be in Chrome on my MacBook but I’m not seeing it any longer. I can give you version numbers and a screencap of what I see now, if you like.

As @justmejay and others have mentioned, I agree that the @mention thing is kind of weird and doesn’t work how you might expect. Sadly, I don’t think I can fix this easily since it’s a deeper level issue in our forums software. However, I have made a tweak that makes the autocomplete of @mentions work in the reply box, which should help to some…[Read more]

I am bringing this thread back from the semi-dead.

@Sarvi: In this comment do you know what device and/or browser you see that issue with? I’ve been trying to figure out under what conditions that happens.

Here you are @SC

Thanks ladies so much for your replies! I think I have just worked this up to be a bigger deal in my mind than what it really is. I probably just need to get some fabric and a pattern and give it a go.

I’m interested in the diplomat dress but am curious if anyone has ever tried to convert it to a nursing dress. The seam across the chest could have an invisible zipper inserted for access but I’m looking for examples before I try it.

I managed to get into the sewing room today. I cut out three more pairs of parachute pants and the aim was to assembly line sew them. I spent every nap time sewing and have almost completed them – just have the…[Read more]

I have started sewing up my first Badminton top today and am having that feeling of giddy excitement that comes with making up an O+S pattern for the first time! Isn’t it a pretty top?!
Glad to see others are in the process of using the pattern too. I spend the better part of yesterday morning tracing off everything in a size 10, so am intending…[Read more]

Chestnut looks like it may need a a bit of room in the belly. The finished waist/chest size would be very helpful!

Without wanting to cause offence to Chestnut (last thing you need is to have to take him to counselling!) is he a portly bear?
The only place I could imagine you’d need to alter would be the waist if he/she was very rotund.
Otherwise it’s just a matter of scaling up or down if you think Chestnut is much bigger/smaller than the average doll.

All of our knit patterns have additional tips and guidance included in the instructions, so that’s probably a good place to start as well. It’s not very difficult, and it’s actually much faster than sewing with wovens, so don’t be intimidated!
