Reeni replied to the topic How corny is the matching mom and girl look? in the forum liesl + co: bistro dress 11 years ago
I think it is a fun and cute idea to coordinate for the bridal shower, and less attention-calling than to do so at the actual wedding. I do remember from my own wedding that our flower girl’s mom was in many of the pictures of the bridal party — also because she was the ring bearer’s mom! I don’t know about small and large dresses that look the…[Read more]

All that sounds complicated, to be honest. But I’m happy to report that after an adventurous Friday afternoon rush hour (Philly takes Friday afternoon rush really really seriously) we located the print shop in a slightly creepy basement despite the lobby confusion of an Asian American conference of some kind and picked up a correctly scaled p58…[Read more]

My mom and I never matched, so I guess I’m not scarred. Though it would still scar me if I thought I was dressing like her. Shudder. And I didn’t have siblings to match with.
It will be funny, I think, but I also think it will make for a good future date night dress.

I just discovered Oliver and S. Wow I’ve been missing out for so long!!! I have to say I’ve been addicted to making t- shirts since I bought the School Bus T-shirt pattern last week. I’m now stepping it up and trying to use the color blocking tutorial on another this weekend. So far I have my fabrics laid out. Here is one I just finished. My…[Read more]

@Nicole your method makes a lot of sense.
Thanks everyone I have some options to look into. And I’ve also found some thicker knits that might be more winter appropriate as well.

“I am the mother of the flower girl!” Hahaha, that is awesome, and should totally be a thing!
I confess, I would not feel comfortable with that level of matchy with my daughter, but to each their own! I am still scarred by my childhood in the 1980s. Nuff said.

Polartec Power Stretch fabric is awesome! That’s what all my winter running clothes are made from.;)

I’ve finished the garden party top. It was a lovley sew, I very much enjoyed just following the instructions and making no changes this time 🙂
I think I’ll spend some time Doing buttons and buttonholes today. I don’t normally leave them but I have a Seashore sundress and an Art Museum Vest that both need them. -

I saw footage last night on the news. Having a huge dumping of snow would be like having floods here – complete disaster!
I pray for the families of those that have lost their lives. It would be very tragic to lose someone just because of a huge downfall of snow.
But it is wonderful to see such community spirit with the help each other is…[Read more]

Hilarious! Meleliza I don’t think it is too corny because you are using elements that are the same not dressing exactly alike, right?
I think it will be a very sweet tribute to the day and event.

It is indeed very cute Becky. I have made one in a knit and one in a woven and the knit is worn ten times more often. In fact I haven’t seen the woven one since I made it! I think I will dig it out of her wardrobe to recycle because the fabric is so nice.
I was pretty much knackered yesterday so did alot of sitting. During that time I actually…[Read more]

If it’s an issue with a place not being able to print just one page of a PDF, you can always split the file and send just the page(s) that are the large format sheets.
I do this with the full version of Adobe Acrobat. It has the option of deleting pages in a PDF. Save the file under a new name and delete all pages but the last.
