You’re welcome! I am totally considering running it by my 9 yo, she already has a nice chambray shirt, maybe not in gingham though, being it would be for every day wear… So, thank you for posing the question! 🙂

I don’t know how to properly attach a photo, but if you click on the image it will pull up a larger, full shot version.

What about a lengthened Classic Picnic top in red gingham with a chambray Sketchbook tied in a knot, or a modified Art Museum vest to look sort of like a denim vest? Or you could probably even easier use the sketchbook for a denim vest. I love the flowy dress under a vest or tied shirt. Just my two cents, anyways:)
And of course, boots.

What size is she? That may help with pattern suggestions:) Nicole made a cute Swingset skirt with fringe that was cowgirl like.

@motherof5 Nicole, when you have a chance would you consider popping a photo of your rota worksheet on flickr? I am so intrigued by this, and once I catch up on the baby’s wardrobe I really need to start something like this- especially with Spring on the close horizon (for our area).

Hi @admin — if you ever run completely out of other things to do (and not sure this bit is even your job) — it looks like the logo needed to be pushed just a speck to the left. Screencap attached. See how the lower right loop of the ‘s’ is shaved a bit?
Or has it always been that way? Like the little scissors have trimmed its seam allowance?

@with love Heidi, flexibility but responsibility. Roots and wings, as Jed and I like to say. 🙂
@EllenMCM, it has been so very hot here it seems a bit bonkers to be sewing trousers.
I made a tiny Tea Party for Beatrix today, purely as sewing therapy after the dress for my cousin. It was palate cleanser indeed.
Next up, some nighties for Trixie…[Read more]

Much more relaxing then my threading method….which involves tweezers, me swearing a lot and the children advising each other to stay away from mum.

I had an annoying afternoon and thought I’d relax for a few minutes and watch a video on using my serger. This might have been … too relaxing.

Create, that is beautiful. I think I shall focus on sewing being more about creating, then working.

@vothgirl, Hugo has printed me up a ‘rota’ that everyone fills in. The Twins change their minds a lot before I get to them but that is have the fun. Once it is cut, that is it.
I finally finished my cousins dress. It is beautiful and if I have fitted the muslin correctly, should fit like a glove.
It was a lot of work though. Lots of pieces,…[Read more] -
