@dubhels2003, I have bought quite a bit of fabric from dotsnstripes.co.uk. Nicole, the owner, has a lovely selection of plain and patterned jersey fabrics as well as some sweatshirting. I alsreally like her corduroy fabrics.
The service is also fantastic!

After finishing the onsie, I had enough of the coral fleece left over to cut out a Cosy Bear hood from LTTS and a lullaby jacket! Not bad for a $2, <1m remanent. The bear hood is all done, and so cute and soft.
I’m not lining the jacket as I want it as cuddly on the outside as the I side. I just realised I want to add a zip to the front…[Read more]

@meleliza, yes, she said I needed a girdle?!?!

Good luck @justsewit.

Class Picnic blouse and shorts finished. I piped the shorts facing which actually made the easier to sew. How often that does happen?

Now I must finish this dress for my cousin. A sweet baby boy named Eoin placed it on hold for 12 months.

@kgiff, I will get on to that for you.
It would be my pleasure.

@Nicole, I’d love to know the sellers you’ve found on eBay or search terms to use. I’m overwhelmed when looking both on Easy and eBay.

Hope all goes well with the new baby, Tamara!
I’m making the Jalie onsie from cuddle fleece. The pattern is fantastic! It all lines up and sews up so well. The instructions aren’t Oliver and S standard but they are fine, with great pictures, and give good results.
I love sewing with fleece, no ironing! It makes the project so fast 🙂

A fabric gift is pretty much my dream gift, lucky you! I just use a fine needle and guterman, I’ll be interested to know what anyone else uses.

@justsewit Really looking forward to seeing your little arrival in her new and beautiful clobber!

A new year means new patterns for me.
Last year’s are all looking twee

It looks like that doesn’t it @Robin. But no, the illustration and the written instruction show the waistband finishing at the pocket edge. No overlap needed ’cause the pocket overlaps itself.
Puzzling….

SO EXCITED!! I was given a very generous gift card by my MIL for Christmas to treat myself to some nice fabric (I’m so blessed to have a MIL I get along with so well!), so I just ordered my first Liberty! I was able to get enough for a Weekend Getaway blouse, as well as some lovely indigo linen to sew myself a Bistro Dress for Easter! Of course I…[Read more]
