If I was adding fullness to the front I would certainly add to the back as well.
Don’t forget to move those notches!

I’ve just made this one in a velveteen (view B). I’d bought a fabric remnant on sale that was only about 70cm yet I got the size 5 out of it. yay! (with only a join in the collar at the front – hardly noticeable). I only had the larger pattern. Now I just have to wait four years for my daughter to fit into it!

Does it really? I thought it went over the shoulders-how embarrassing!

I will make the biggies hunt it out this arvo and check the spacing for you.
(and thank you,I have nearly finished it)!

Heidi,what a kind and generous soul you are!
I must admit I can’t measure my daughters as it is MIA,however,I was given the great tip of crossing the shoulders straps as my Matilda is such a mini moo it falls off her shoulders.
If I was sewing for a trading table,I would add the fluffy side of the velcro to the straps at regular increments to make…[Read more]

I went and measured the one I made. I placed the first velcro 8 1/2 inches from the end of the strap (not where it attaches to the carrier) and the second 12 inches from the end. My carrier is for my 4 and 7 year old daughters. Hope that helps!

You are both seriously kind!
I will have to get Hugo off the building site and back into the office.
He learnt how to grout yesterday!

I am putting them on a Pinterest board and tagging them now.
Basically,I don’t know how to do it(Make a side bar thingy).
I will ask Hugo-thanks for the compliment and interest Sarvi.

Nicole, is it possible to have a set of links in the sidebar of your blog to all of your tutorials? They’re such a useful resource, it would be so nice to have them all collected in one easy-to-browse spot. I basically search your blog first because I know it’ll be like a ‘practice run’ through making the pattern but sometimes I have to dig a…[Read more]

I blogged it if that is any help?

I just might do that in order to actually get the prints I’m after.
I had the sales assistant bag the range saying she couldn’t understand why people loved it so much. I set her straight in explaining why.
Will go mail ordering when hubby isn’t looking and get that ones I want.

Don’t forget the mail order option. It can take a week but they hunt around and find it all for you!
Well worth the 7$ p&h.

Bit disappointed to find my store didn’t have all the prints and fabrics available. Apparently there was a split shipment. Oh well will try again next time.

Exactly! Thank you, my hero!
