That’s a great idea @withloveHeidi and they will be great for afterwards when all is healed as sport track pants that she can put on without yet having to take shoes off. The pattern should be perfect.
I should make some waterproof over pants for my son’s ride to school in winter. Good thinking Heidi (again) -

I worked on a very special Nature Walk today. I’m using a 3XL fleece vest which has a unique embroidered logo to make it. I’m colour blocking it with some microfleece. Will post in the Flikr when done.

If you get it from JoAnn, you can use one of their discount coupons– my mother has done it. A whole bolt still counts as a single cut of fabric.

Oh Jenny! Ok, I will fill you in on something happy because I absolutely know where you are right now, having had this kind of a year last year.
Two weekends ago, we in Australia commemorated Anzac Day. It was in fact the centenary year. There were something like 90000 people rocking up to the dawn service at Kings park Perth! And then later that…[Read more]

I think a lot of places will ship fabric on the bolt if you order the right quantity. I don’t know about Fabric Mart, however, they do have some chambrays in stock now, one in large quantity, and they’ve got a pyramid sale going so you can get a good discount: http://www.fabricmartfabrics.com/Chambray/

Sandra S Hamous replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum
Sew Alongs 10 years agoHello all –
I am sewing a size 6, using a sweatshirt fleece (fuzzy on one side, smooth on the other) and discovered while hemming the first leg that a 1/2″ channel was just barely too narrow for my 1/2″ non-roll elastic. The stuff is pretty stiff, and the fabric is pretty thick – maybe a softer elastic may have worked better, but that’s what I…[Read more]

Joann’s sells stuff by the bolt. I don’t know about chambray. But I bet if you went to a store either JoAnns or even a local place and tell them you wanted to buy a bolt of chambray, they’d order it for you. At Joann’s if there is a weight you like that they already have, you could ask them to order a bolt of that particular one for you.

Thank you all for your support. Your kindness is always so touching. What if I told you that today the doctor called my mother and she needs bypass surgery, and btw, she has an auto immune disorder where she doesn’t quite clot?
If anyone needs me I will be on the couch after taking a valium. J/k about the valium.
Anyway, someone talk some…[Read more]

Thank you for the pattern tips! That is two new pattern companies you’ve introduced me to, which for someone with more ideas and enthusiasm than time is a very dangerous thing! I’ll have to tell my husband you made me buy something…
I’ve just about finished a vintage pj top for Lady E to take on holiday with her. I’ve had to free style some…[Read more]

Every time I try a new pattern, I make it in blue chambray. I’m getting kind of tired of going out to buy more blue chambray, and I’m hoping that one of you wise ladies will know where I can order an entire bolt.
Thanks!
