I am planning to make one of these Maritime tops in Knit. Did anyone decide if a FBA is needed?
Oh, my measurements are 32 high, 36 mid?, and 30 low (right under the bust, rib cage I guess). Just because I love having my measurements floating around on the internet.

I got this photo through the other day. All the girls made one for their mums so I thought I would share it here and wish everyone a Happy Mother’s day.

@sewgirl23 oh wow you are on a roll for sure! I love the pinwheel tunic and dress but as yet haven’t made it for my youngest daughter – made two for the eldes a d they unfortunately sat in the cupboard after the initial wear. And the afterschool pants make the best little girl jeans!

Speaking of jeans, I have drafted off the pattern I am going to…[Read more]

Thank you Liesl! <3

Wow, @sewgirl23, that DOES look like it was a challenge. And it turned out beautifully!

Everything I can get my hands on, is the short answer! Just finished the pinwheel tunic and dress and after-school pants this week for my daughter. A soft structured baby carrier for my son. In the middle of perfecting a sloper for a friend to use for her knitting projects. And deciding which sundress pattern to start this week for myself!…[Read more]

It’s a toss up for me between a beaded chiffon evening gown, and a tulle ruffled ballgown. The beaded chiffon was the most challenging in every respect- keeping the silk chiffon from distorting and the tension correct as is a normal challenge, but with the additional difficulty of having to clean the beads out of the seam allowance and tie off…[Read more]

Well the concord is ready to use and now I am on to altering the j stern designs jeans pattern I bought for myself when I first got the make your own designer jeans class with Angela Wolf on Craftsy. I had to cut the alterations short thanks to an all too keen to get outside toddler but she is now wrapping herself in sticky tape and having a fine…[Read more]

The Concord is a great pattern, I loved how few alterations needed to be made to it, added length being the main one here too Tamara 🙂
I’ve just made my first pair of Jalie Eleonore stretch jeans. I’m very impressed, I only needed to add length (4″) and I have wearable pants straight off the pattern!

I am slowly gathering a hefty sized parcel of items to send to Imogen next week. I didn’t end up taking them with me this last trip as I just simply ran out of time so the photoshoot of the pyjamas will just have to wait until midterm break (beginning of June). I made sleepover pyjamas to “match” the Lisette pj’s for Imogen. I used the Jumprope…[Read more]
