My son passed his driving test, so excited for him!

Thanks @Justsewit, I am sure all will be fine.

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…..

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]

Yes, do, maybe even the 2T?
I make this for my girls as a school uniform and is a dress that can be worn a little big with a deeper hem.

@Rhythm, thank you!

In the mail, but they are not fancy ones. #9 sharps. 🙂

I agree, I made a large per my measurements and wore it a lot, pregnant, 😉

I made this tonight http://www.pinterest.com/pin/73676143879970347/, I doubled the recipe but used much much less oil and substituted tinned tomatoes for fresh and 1/3 cup curry powder for green chillies.

It was so yummy, everyone had seconds, even Tildy.

@Rhythm, could I use desiccated coconut?

Today’s sewing has consisted of:

1 hour cobbling Lucy’s Sheepie (her security blanket) back together – she has many, many sheepies, but only one Sheepie 😉 – it is really disintegrating at a rapid rate…

1 hour making alterations to a RTW tee that Harry bought for himself the other day. Rosie (unfortunately) has introduced both the boys to her…[Read more]
