ok, give me a few minutes, brb

I think I might have the paper version of that pattern. Could you let me know what size you’re making and I’ll measure my pieces and see if they add up to the same as yours?

Haha! Like when somebody asked a British friend of mine whether he was celebrating the fourth of July and he gently pointed out that it was considered rather a loss, from their side. Generally royalty are a bit at odds with the American meritocratic ideal wherein all babies are seen as equally worthy, wouldn’t you say? Cute babies, though, and I…[Read more]

I’m ready to throw this music class blouse in the bin! I am still trying to work out how on earth I have one cuff longer than the other. The topstitching needs to be unpicked. I just don’t like this shirt anymore!

I have to return to Spotlight in the morning because I came home with only half my purchases! The saleslady did a handover halfway…[Read more]

What beautiful photos! Prince George is just a stunning little fellow isn’t he? And little Princess Charlotte is just so delightful!
I am certain we will see some very classic styles coming to the forefront as she grows.

Masha, I am so sorry to hear your terrible news. I truly wish there was something I could do.

I hope you have some support.

So sorry to hear this — what a shocker for a young man! Hoping for the best outcome and wishing you great strength.

Is ‘washed like rags’ good or bad? And what’s ‘goffer’? AUS to USA translation, please?

Oh you poor darling! What a horrendously stressful and worrying time for you. You are top of the prayer list for me now Masha. Please make sure you rest and take care of you! I know that would probably be the last thing on your mind right now. Do you have family rallying around you in support?

Ok, I have to bite the bullet and sew big kid pants! There is NOTHING in the shop that remotely looks anywhere NEAR acceptable! Truly disappointing but, hey, I knew it would come around eventually.

So off to Spotlight I trotted and bought denim. Now I have to find a pattern to fit Noah as I have the Jalie to fit Imogen. I will compare Thread…[Read more]
