Mud isn’t such a huge issue in the city! Rather dogs. Dog people don’t feel they need clean up after their animals if it’s cold, so when the snow melts there is quite a lot left behind. Yucky.

After reading my own post, I would just baste and neaten the dress and lining together and then add the yoke, as per usual.

Thank you. This is my redo pair for my 4 year old son after his planned Christmas pair went missing before he received them. So, I’d like to finish without issue. 🙂

I’m thinking of doing a Playdate (before my kid grows out of it!) in some very nice Cloud 9 voile. It definitely needs a lining – any advice?

I finished sweeping up the detritus of a huge project yesterday, and this blizzard has me prepped to make a Lullaby Layette (and maybe a few diapers) for my nephew coming in March. I am excited, tiny tiny little manclothes.

Snow sounds so exciting to me, but I gather the mud that comes with it is not so beautiful.
Stay safe Melanie!

The only time I got caught out cutting against the grain was with a silk Birthday Party dress.
I cut the ties, one side with the grain one side against, and the against side stretched a bit.Handle it carefully and it should be fine

I find myself between projects conveniently when we’re supposed to be getting a big nor’easter tomorrow. I know I’m not the only one here in the path of the storm! What do you all have planned?
Here, there’s a cut of linen sweater knit waiting for me. I’m not really a knit sewing person, but I recently did some costumes in knit and the cardigan…[Read more]

Would it be terrible to cut the shirt facing against grain? I made a cutting error and I only have enough contrast fabric if I cut it that way. I know it’s not ideal, but will it be a disaster?
