@thejennigirl how did the costume go?

I have almost finished the culottes. i have had many interruptions and disruptions that have put the sewing on the back burner. I just have the waistband facings to stitch down and they’re done.

Imogen needs a new swimsuit and in a hurry, so I have downloaded some Jalie patterns pdf style and plan to make…[Read more]

I’ve woken up with a very sore throat
It feels like I swallowed a goat
I can’t find my pins
My brain has the spins
I’ve sewn the sleeves to the hem of my coat

My little girl is about to outgrow

@katybellabug if only we coukd make Gene wear a Johnny depp mask!😜 I do understand what you mean, I have never really been a fan myself but it was fun to watch with the kids….

Johnny’s costume was pretty spectacular, I loved his bug eyed glasses.

Oh my! What an honour to have a leading role in the school play! We were just watching the 1970’s version of the movie, the one with Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka the other day.

I would say that costume in particular, for me, epitomises the very character!

But…. You could make a destinguished looking cahracter based on your own…[Read more]

I’ve woken up with a very sore throat
It feels like I swallowed a goat

I “thrifted” an old orange chair
The seat and the arms are threadbare
The legs are still good
They’re made of Dogwood
But the rest seems to be made of cat hair

I’ve woken up with a very sore throat

{true but also the start of the next one}

Willy Wonka’s the best role in the whole show! Congratulations!

I’m so sorry, Masha 🙁 It hasn’t happened to me yet, but I constantly get other people who think I am overcautious sharing photos of my kid publicly (grandparents) and it is so tiresome to have to prove to each one individually that there really are creeps out there. You really wish people would respect your parental decision! It feels as though…[Read more]

Oh Masha!😱 It is completely unspeakable how these people can get around something that is meant to be very innocent and abuse it to the point where it spoils it for everyone else!

I don’t blame you one little bit for staying vigilant and cautious. It has happened to me but not to this capacity. I had a photo of my daughter wearing a Dorothy…[Read more]

thejennigirl I am so sorry for your loss.

@justsewit I hope Murray is doing better. I enjoyed your photos of your girls on Flickr. It sounds like school is going so well for Imogen, illness notwithstanding. Hope she is feeling better.

@dubhels2003 I always find clean slates to be exhilarating. Hope this change brings great things for you.
