@dubhels2003 do you really think I get alot done? Well probably for someone with three kids it is true but personally all my projects are in danger of ending up in the unfinished basket.

I didn’t get to the white hide and seek tunic or the other butterfly blouse so these will have to wait.

The comino cap dress (Kitschy coo) is literally a five…[Read more]

Oh I can so relate @thejennigirl. Imogen received a sewing machine from my mum for her birthday just gone and whilst she has dabbled, I was really hoping this time (and precious time that it is) would help her learn more, spend some valuable time with me and help her to take some ownership in what she wants to wear. Alas it has all fallen by the…[Read more]

Talk to me about sewing supplies and other things you’d like us to carry, will you? What would be most useful or inspiring to you? It doesn’t really make sense to us or to you to carry things that you can find everywhere else. Is there something you can’t find and want us to carry? Would you be interested in things that I love that you might not…[Read more]

I had a job and a half trying to get her to even look at the patterns. So much for a sewing mother daughter time also. She decided that it would be better if I made them! I think eventually we might use all of the ladies patterns Kitschy coo has available. I was actually a little surprised she didn’t choose the lady skater because of the dress I…[Read more]

I soent all day yesterday putting together three pdf patterns. Two were Liesl and co and took five minutes but the other…. it was a little confusing because the numbered sheets were mot in order when they were printed out.

Anyway, today I managed to get as far as tracing this Comino cap dress by Kitschy coo in a size 3 for my eldest daughter. I…[Read more]

@liesl that is very exciting news! I will definitely be ordering this when it released then as my daughter requires one for school – so the umbrella will have to do for the time being.

@justsewit, I think you’ll be very happy with the spring Lisette for Butterick patterns. It’s definitely in line with your thinking, especially if you don’t mind a few tweaks to make it more rain-worthy…

All of you lovelies who are requesting a blazer or moto jacket: if we had seen sales of the Secret Agent Trench Coat that were in line with…[Read more]

I am sorry, you could always try it….

You are right, you do know the answer.
It won’t go over her head.

I have topstitched that seam in a #4 stitch length and then had it be too firm.

Sorry to confirm what you knew.

A Blazer is still top on my wish list and has been for years. A Moto jacket would be awesome though.

Liesl, would it be possible to do a rainjacket pattern for grownups please? I am finding it very difficult to find one.

Finished! One Butterfly top with flutter sleeves.

I need to clean up the sewing room as we have guests (again) so this is the job for the rest of the day. Then I will finish the other butterfly top and the hude and seek tunic before turning my attention (finally) to something for Imogen.

A good recommendation for velcro placement.
