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?

Oh, that’d be so lovely, Nicole, and what a lucky baby that gets you set loose among some Liberty to sew for her.
