Not sketchbook….but the back darts on the art museum work really well on my girl for school shorts and she’s got a round derrière. I also just add patch pockets.

Oh gosh that new baby is darling! I love his sweet little knit outfit.

Thank you @justsewit , a new lens prescription and the advice to keep an eye on her. No drops today but I can understand your little mans reluctance, the Twins said they do sting a bit.

@dubhels2003 Helena, my three older kids all had the chicken pox about 16 months ago; my son was only a year old at the time. He had a very mild case – and in general I have heard that the younger ones do better.

I was able to cut a Roller skate tunic size ten out of one yard this afternoon:)

Thanks so much Heidi for sharing these lists! The number of Oliver + S items that can be made from one yard of fabric is impressive!

Me too. All the wrong size but now I want to make a pink finewale cord Apple Picking dress!
