I’d definitely get a daylight lamp of some description, but as to which one, it would depend on which would suit your room best 🙂 (have you posted pics?)

I have a set of French doors in my sewing room, which faces east, but my desk is on the opposite wall and the table lamp I use is not good enough – I’ve got a daylight lamp on my wish list…[Read more]

I am pleased you have found a option that works. 🙂

If it makes you happy, go for it!

I love that first one!

I had a an expensive but pretty useless fluro light put in above my machines so I will be reading this with interest. I am pretty lucky to have a window in my sewing area but through most of summer I must have the blind down as it is too hot.

I have a bendable light over my overlocker I use for unpicking navy on…[Read more]

I don’t know if there’s really a standard–it’s more about what looks and feels right on your body. It’s probably fine–that detail is so small it’s not going to detract from the skirt once you get the length right for you. Does that help?

I wish you the best for making the scarves sewsoslow. A community effort such as this one would be valued beyond belief to the recipients I am sure.

Being exhausted from the week’s events, I managed to get the placket done only on the Cape Ann bodysuit, despite it being the wrong one. I plan to make a shirt to go with the little mauve coloured…[Read more]

I’m so glad you’ve got this sorted @meleliza. I have to confess that whenever I see a thread about PDFs with your name on it, I have to look. Kind of like watching motor racing for the crashes.
(please don’t take that unkindly, I genuinely sympathise with your frustration too).
I wish it was so easy down under. Our largest standard paper size is…[Read more]

WendyS, we would love to see it but…. I can’t see it here at least. Perhaps it was uploaded onto the flickr group page?

Just got back from the usual Saturday routine of swimming lessons. Having a little veg out time before going to do some much needed sewing.

I discovered a bishop style angel top this morning that has not yet been smocked so I…[Read more]

“I am the mother of the flower girl!” Hahaha, that is awesome, and should totally be a thing!

I confess, I would not feel comfortable with that level of matchy with my daughter, but to each their own! I am still scarred by my childhood in the 1980s. Nuff said.

Polartec Power Stretch fabric is awesome! That’s what all my winter running clothes are made from.;)

I saw footage last night on the news. Having a huge dumping of snow would be like having floods here – complete disaster!

I pray for the families of those that have lost their lives. It would be very tragic to lose someone just because of a huge downfall of snow.

But it is wonderful to see such community spirit with the help each other is…[Read more]

Hilarious! Meleliza I don’t think it is too corny because you are using elements that are the same not dressing exactly alike, right?

I think it will be a very sweet tribute to the day and event.

It is indeed very cute Becky. I have made one in a knit and one in a woven and the knit is worn ten times more often. In fact I haven’t seen the woven one since I made it! I think I will dig it out of her wardrobe to recycle because the fabric is so nice.

I was pretty much knackered yesterday so did alot of sitting. During that time I actually…[Read more]

If it’s an issue with a place not being able to print just one page of a PDF, you can always split the file and send just the page(s) that are the large format sheets.

I do this with the full version of Adobe Acrobat. It has the option of deleting pages in a PDF. Save the file under a new name and delete all pages but the last.

I haven’t tried…[Read more]
