Even with the right fiber content, different knit qualities will feel and drape differently, so there’s no simple answer to this. Unfortunately. You really just have to feel them!

I didn’t have this issue, but agree with Nicole. Did you trim enough away from the seam allowance? It seems like that seam is to be trimmed to 1/8″? Sometimes that cause you to lose a little as well.

I have the yoke for a playdate dress completed. I’m hoping we can get the kids in bed on time tonight so I can get it finished up. Then it’s on to 2 drawstring bags to use gift bags for my nephew and a school friend of A’s.

Oh my goodness, the poor baby! Has she been checked for Chrohn’s? A little friend of ours was diagnosed just before Kindy. He has dealt with similar chronic constipation since birth as well. I hope she can stay regulated and not be subjected to that medicine again.

I love these older names. So pretty and elegant.

We are exhausted here at my home. Gigi has suffered from chronic constipation since birth- which led to difficulty controlling her bowel.

Next year is Kinder, so I wanted this under control and I was done with all the normal interventions, ala diet and over the counter meds. They weren’t…[Read more]

Estelle is such a pretty name. I knew a little girl named Estella, who is about Imogen’s age.

The new Swedish princesses got rather unusual names. Estelle was born 3 years ago to the Crown Princess and Leonore last year to princess Madeleine.
Leonore will become a big sister on June – I wonder what they pick for him/her.
Oh and June will also see another Royal wedding (the last one for a while now) when Prince Carl Philip weds miss Sofia…[Read more]

I adore the name! I wanted Chloe to be a Charlotte! Elizabeth was a given for me I think because its Catherine’s middle name and Carol’s and also ties to Her Majesty. I think they chose beautifully.

Although I do hope that the next generation choose versions of the old names, like Elise instead of Elizabeth, just to mix things up slightly.
