    Thank you all so much for your advice and help. I made the cake and saved a small fortune!

    @Ann-Maree, I used your excellent idea of two cakes. Whilst Hugo and Co were making speeches and ‘cutting the cake’ a good friend and I were cutting and plating up the other cake, close by.
    By the time speeches were done, cake was ready to be eaten.

    Thank you!

  • I have a lot of Christmas sewing planned, whether I get there is another thing.
    Is it just me or does ‘linky party’ bug anyone else? Even my Macbook doesn’t want to type it.

    Link up party, maybe?

    Hello Lovelies, so nice to read that people are sewing.

    Tilly received a last minute 6th Birthday invite and the little girls mother asked me to sew something so nicely, I couldn’t say no. She requested something ‘Kardashian’ style and it took a wee bit of research (by the Twins) to find out that there is a children’s label.

    Luckily, I had a…[Read more]

    I managed to get it to load in the end, thankfully.

    Will you show us the jalie bella dress Heidi?

    I have to wash the cw fabric so while that is happening, I might work on some hopscotch tops.

    Heidi, I just purchased the odf pattern of the Appleton. Did you have issues downloading it at all? It doesn’t seem to want to load on the ipad😕

  • Tamara replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 9 years ago

    Ok I see where it is now. Sorry, it sounds as though I am ignorant. I have to alter patterns also and it has just become second nature to take any pattern I want to use for myself and go ahead and alter it to fit me. I am convinced now though that trying the Appleton dress pattern woukd actually be kind of a nice chance to see if the many changes…[Read more]

    Do you have to make significant changes with the colette patterns?

    I just purchased the pdf version to try. It looks like something that could work for the silly season.

  • Thanks Brittney, it seems I missed the memo.

  • I have a question which has sparked since the announcement of our new challenge really.

    If we were to sew a mashed up Oliver and s item and we wanted to sell that item, would we need to purchase licenses for all the different patterns we used in order to do that?

    And also, what is the general way of doing things with Liesl and co patterns? Are…[Read more]

    I have dabbled with Ottobre patterns when I didn’t have the baby to sew for. I had more luck with my daughter than with my son. My only gripe is the sewam allowances aren’t included on everything. I have some issues but none of the later ones – the bookshelf is getting rather full😉.
