I use the same ‘pin’ method as Shelley. And @lightningmcstitch – re notches – my mother taught me to always cut my notches out rather than in – much safer 🙂

We’re having a quiet weekend here – today (Good Friday) we’re taking the kids to the Royal Easter Show (Ag show) – but they are more excited by the idea of rides and show bags rather than seeing the animals etc ;-). We have dinner at my parents’ every Sunday, so nothing different there. Hoping to do lots of sewing over the weekend – and over the…[Read more]

Oh, everyone’s plans sound so nice! Don’t worry about the rain, I’m sure the bubbly will be it’s own kind of sunshine 🙂
Thanks for the idea about including some swim gear, that’ll work great for us!

What’s everyone doing for the holidays? Spring break is here or nearly here, Easter and Passover (I think? I’m an atheist so I apologize if I’ve got it wrong) are on their way, and Persian New Year just passed.
We went out for the traditional Persian ‘outdoor thirteen’ picnic, two weeks after the Spring equinox, albeit by accident. My birthday…[Read more]

Wishing you peace in your heart, Jay. Loss of a peer is so difficult in its own way, and to lose a beloved friend is even harder.

Fiber Club! 11 years agoActually I can show you all four of those elements in EZ’s work — but as I noted, she can be a bit of an acquired taste, and really, there’s no need to push her onto anybody who’s said they’re not interested. Her legacy’s rock solid and not going anywhere.
But! It sounds like you have a good sense of what you want and perhaps just needed a bit…[Read more]

Zara would like a Moto jacket next time, I am so excited to sew it. I really enjoyed making Hugo’s coat and she wants that wool or the piece Shelley McStitch sent me.

I hear you Masha, I gave up on Fabric.com after every single order had a mistake!
I finished ‘my’ turn on the rota and on to Jed (my hubby), a lawn floral shirt.

Thanks @maraya for the weight info, I never know what to buy when online.

Brittney replied to the topic Best O +S pattern to use to make jeans? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 11 years ago
I agree, the denim makes the pattern. Though, I think the Art Museum with maybe a different back pocket would work well. You could easily change up the pocket to be more ‘jean like’ and add some neat topstitching.
I have made the Titchy Thread pattern 7 times now with mixed results depending on the kid and size, stick with O+S;)

@Todd hope the skiing is nice! It seems like we haven’t had snow in ages, though I know they have big machines for that too. My husband took my girl up about 6 weeks ago and said it was a weird feeling being able to ski in a t-shirt. But, the mountain we go to is probably a lot more south (ie warmer) in the state than the one you are at.
Super…[Read more]

Fiber Club! 11 years agoI feel like I’m running an ad agency for Brooklyn Tweed at this point, but it’s just something I know well and can use for a further example; I’m sure many other designers have a lot of these fantastic features.
When looking at a knitting pattern, you might be happier if:
1. It has a lot of makes on Ravelry. You can look at modeled photos of…[Read more]
