Isn’t it? I want the bunny print from the catalogue also but Chloe was not in the mood to shop so, next time.

I topstitched the teaparty dress and made buttonholes but that is all the actual sewing I did today.

I cut three layette shirts and two bodysuits all with white backgrounds so I can sew them all at the same time.

I also got busy cutting…[Read more]

Leggings made and another hopscotch from the jegging scraps
I was able to cut a late lunch and a continental blouse from the linen
While doing some sorting I found some cut Capri pants and a black skirt from when the twins were babies
If I leave the front darts off I think they may still fit me
Fingers crossed

I make my own using (smooth, not tweedy) kitchen twine, as that’s what I happened to have on hand when I first tried it, and I liked it so much I kept using it. I cut my bias to 1.25 inches and then I can line up the raw edge of the bias with the raw edge of the fabric and use a 1/2 in seam as normal. Works very nicely.

Oh, and just to add, I’ve been very happy with the Brooklyn Tweed patterns thus far, everything works out pretty well. I had a lot of growth in a pattern where I didn’t block the swatch but obviously that was my fault. Blocking is quite the art form in itself, I might add. It’s *very* easy to undo months of good work with improper handling of a wet piece.
Sarvi replied to the topic Help me enjoy knitting again in the forum Fiber Club! 10 years ago

I really feel your pain on this one. I also feel that knitting is so labor-intensive, it’s not worth it to use yarns you don’t love, so even a small project gets very expensive very quickly. The problem is that swatching it so much slower and more expensive than doing a muslin for something sewn. You have to knit a big swatch, using the same yarn…[Read more]

Darn autocorrect. M equals me. I equals if.

Ok! Done @dubhels2003 and done @with-love-Heidi

I have some postal satchels from the last round of generous recipients, so up to you I you care to send one in return not required. I’ll be happy to imagine them being well received.

I must confess, I don’t own this one (yet, still nursing), but in the comment section on this post it says there is a SBA included: http://oliverands.com/community/blog/2014/10/introducing-the-liesl-co-bistro-dress-pattern.html

I apologize, I should have sourced that the first time, but I was on my phone.

The Bistro includes instructions for a small bust adjustment:)
