Fiber Club! 9 years agoThanks Linda! This is helpful. I usually do a smaller swatch (varies in width, but probably closer to 4 inches in length) and then count stitches for an inch and multiply. It sounds like that may not be the most accurate way of doing thing. 🙂 I am entirely self taught (via internet and a stitch book that I have) so I am often guessing and doing…[Read more]

I don’t know if this is the right place to put this, but I thought of it after I filled out my survey a month or so ago. 🙂 I was thinking that it would be very helpful to know what size clothing the model on the cover of the patterns is wearing and what his/her rough measurements are. I think this would help us to have a better understanding of…[Read more]

A friend recommended these tables to me- http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S19852113/#/S69857764
I have 2. One has my sewing machine and serger on it. the other is right next to it, but raised up to its maximum height (the one with the A-legs because they can be raised up higher) and I use it for cutting/staging my projects.

Jennifer1568- thanks. I will be getting to this muslin in the next day or so. I will start by trying them in the same spot and see what happens! Since this is her 2nd fairy tale- and the first one still fits pretty well- except for length- I have been looking at the first one to sort of gauge adjustments that will be needed, 🙂
