Oh, Sarvi! I love that idea (and…a new website browse).
Heidi, good point! I have that one and plan to use it. I never have great luck with knits holding up as well as wovens, but will absolutely make a few.
Thanks!

How about the lawn/shirting weights from Yoshiko Jinzenji (sp?) — they make terrific little shirts and aren’t too hot.

I’m more a fan of versatile basics than prints (with the exception of liberty of course). HOWEVER, my boy starts kindergarten this fall and dress code dictates that he must wear a collared shirt each day. I thought to make things a little more kid friendly I’d buy a few cute prints for shirts for the school wardrobe. So…what are your favorite…[Read more]

Do you still have the piece that you cut out? could you tape it back in place? I’m sure you’d have thought of that already. I don’t know if I have the smaller size but when I get a chance I’ll have a look and see.

I added an inch to the centre front fold and the back for a baby Bubble dress, it was a lovely poofi-ness.

Most annoyed that I couldn’t find a good piece of linen suitable for the Sandbox trousers — wound up cutting them from a sandy cotton … something, not sure what to call it. Not twill, but heavier weight, like that. Speck of stretch to it, I think, it’s a bit hard to tell.
Testing a bubble with extra-long bodice (hoping to sneak it past the…[Read more]

Sarvi replied to the topic Tips for fabric shopping in New York in the forum off topic 10 years ago
You know, I’m afraid I actually wound up not doing any fabric shopping, as I was there for only a very short time, so I tried to only see/do/eat things I couldn’t get at home or online. I did pop into Purl Soho because it was close to something else I wanted to visit, and I did go to the wonderfully-named Tender Buttons, which I very highly…[Read more]

I am just finished with the scallops on the Badminton skort. I made up a pair of the shorts on their own with a ‘slash and spread’ adjustment and have just checked the fit, which is wonderful! So I can safely cut out another pair to go under the skirt and complete my skort.

Hi @admin — I’m terribly sorry but I’m afraid I’m not able to recall what I was using at the time. I feel it *should* be in Chrome on my MacBook but I’m not seeing it any longer. I can give you version numbers and a screencap of what I see now, if you like.
