    That was my main area of interest with crochet, decorative edgings and closures for knitted garments. I’d love to see photos of everybody’s work! Maybe we can start a Crafter’s Auxiliary group for sharing our non-sewing projects.

    I also wanted to tell you guys about a great experience I had with Brooklyn Tweed. I’d ordered a pattern without…[Read more]

  • A couple of tips for you:

    1. This tips applies not just to this pattern, but to any sewing pattern: Always look at the finished measurements if you’re unsure which size to make. Different patterns will be designed with different amounts of ease, so if you know how you want them to fit or where you want to wear the waist you can confirm the size…[Read more]

    How will it all work with nursing Trixie Nicole? Hope it goes smoothly for you.

    Thank you Fiona, you are a darling!

    @cybele727 kindness is my middle name! To others but not to myself – sounds like such a martyr I know but it is how I work myself is second always.

    We are hopefully getting new air con put in tomorrow – if they have the right…[Read more]

  • Can you copy the length and line below the armpits from another pattern? Unless you’re using a tiny size then the Family Reunion could help.

  • 🙂 That would be a trial run, not a trail run, dear oh dear…

    If it was any other fabric, I would say, ‘Go for it’. I know your time is super precious, but so is Liberty. 😉

    Welcome back Fee, I hope you have fun sewing up all those little things.

    I must admit, I love a birth story, you would have think I had had enough but they always thrill me. If anyone else is inspired to write theirs, feel free. (Or post links)

    Thank you for your best wishes, just a straight forward Gall Bladder removal, I fit the criteria of…[Read more]

  • Thinking of the shape, I would extend from the bottom, following the A-line but I would definitely make a trial run before cutting the Liberty.
    You could use it as a nightie.

    I would add a fair bit of length, a few inches not just a few cm’s.

    No sewing, it was a washing and ironing day, but I did prep some cornflower blue cotton poplin for Music Class school blouses (short sleeves and pin tucks) for Lid’s and Tildy.

    I *was* going to cut navy Badminton skorts as bottoms but I am seriously considering Lunch Box culottes with all the lovely versions popping up in the Flickr pool…..

    I’m tackling a fake leather moto jacket for my teenage daughter. This is the most complicated pattern I’ve ever sewn…I hope it turns out nice!

    • Oh, good luck with that!

    • Thanks, Todd! It was a huge challenge but I did get it finished…finally. If I’d known that there was an upcoming Lisette moto jacket pattern coming I would have waited for that!! Ah well, I suppose I can always make one for me.;)

  • Nicole replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

    Yay @vothgirl.
    @Dawn R, that will look so cute.

    Don’t you love it when a experiment works?
    I made Trixie a Hopscotch top and skirt today but I adapted the skirt to have the Tea Party bloomers built in.
    And it worked!

    It was not with out a few head scratching moments though. As I have said in the past, I take my hat off to pattern designers,…[Read more]
