@liesl that is very exciting news! I will definitely be ording 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….

The Larger size Sketchbook shirt+shorts in paper

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.

I managed to sew on the sleeve facings this morning and also the buttons on the sailboat pants. Chloë wore her chevron playtime tunic and sailboat skirt to town shopping but got soaked with her attempts to drink water from the sippy cup. So of course I had the hopscotch top and sailboat pants ready to go. Both sets of clothes are now filthy and…[Read more]

They both sound awesome @dubhels2003. I have decided to wait to make the swingset skirt for a little while until the toddler is really toddler-ing😜. The swingset top though is on the the to do list as it is going to get fiery again up here. We are enjoying three cool (for us) days and the sewing machines are still taking up the dining table.

Thanks for the tips, folks, I’m mulling it all over.

All I can say is enjoy the long sewing stints Heidi. It will be a fair while before I can indulge in all day sewing again.

Today thought, I managed to work on the playtime dress I had cut out in a piece of pink and white chevron knit left over from the playtime dress I made Imogen when the pattern was newly released. She still wears hers but it…[Read more]

Reeni: Thanks for your info on a Brother serger. People who have that model seem to like it just fine.

Enbee: Thank you so much for taking the time to not only test out a rolled hem on your machine but also post photos. Much appreciated. It sure helps when people share their experiences with their machines, so now shopping for one will be much…[Read more]
