@Audrey, of course but I am currently away from home so when I get home I will get into the skirt sewing.

I am actually looking forward to it as it will be a nice change to sew only skirts, or pants, or tops at a time. Its fun to do something different to the norm.

Nicole, I’m using the same pattern I used for the wedding cape and the same blue outer as I had just enough left over 🙂 My niece wore one of the practice ones I made for a week straight when she was with us in January and asked for one in blue for her birthday.

Woohoo sarvi?

Woohoo sarvi?

I have bought one sweatshirt fleece from Girlcharlee and it has held up pretty well.

I just made a couple of these in french terry from GC and it’s amazing. I don’t know how cold it is where you are, if you would want something heavier though. They didn’t have fun prints, but a big variety of stripes and solids.

ETA, 5 minutes
Hi tiddily hee, guilt free shopping for me!

@Ock Du Spock snap! I am sewing one too, but very industrial sewing, lots of topstitching 😉

@with love Heidi that divine wedding cape you sewed, swoon!

@roundtheworldgirl I am so excited about your baby. I just love seeing babies in the Flickr pool.

I have the sleeves to go on Beatrix’s Puppet Show dress. I made the size 6-12 months and it is…[Read more]

Yah for Nicole sorting you out 🙂 they are lovely lawns- although my spottie hasn’t been stocking them anymore… perhaps they’ll bring out some new ones again when spring hits!
Good luck with the clearance table girls! Hope it has some gems for you with 25% off the marked down price 🙂

Oh yay! Glad it turned up!

Yay, you’re the best! I know I shouldn’t hoard but what you sent me, the whole ‘kit’ with the gorgeous buttons and trim, was just too wonderful to cut without a very carefully thought out plan.

Oh Sarvi!!! You legend. That is exactly what I was thinking of!! Thank you thank you for finding it. And big thanks to all you ladies for looking for me. I am so pleased I am not going mad (well maybe just a little mad 🙂
I am going to bookmark all those pages you ladies left for me. They are most useful. Thank you so much!

My pleasure!
I only wish I could be more help.

Thank you so much for your help! I’m guessing that the directions are little bit sparse in the pattern because it is one of the older ones! At least it is working right now!

I am travelling to the city at present so should have a reasonable internet connection for a bit.

*From memory*, you sew to the dot, do the next step and then finish sewing that edge? I am sorry not to be more help. I am feeling so frustrated for you.
