I remember this photo from so many years ago! I will always create an adjustable waist where I can. It’s so useful.

My pleasure Rosie 🙂

Mine came in a job lot from a fashion design student.

I have, with buttonhole elastic.

I have recently pulled them out for my next child.

I have a tute for making them here http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2011/08/short-cut-sailboat-pants.html if you fancy a peep.

I have recently pulled them out for my next child.

I’ve been looking for notchers like that but have had trouble finding any in my part of the world. Maybe it’s an issue of translation – I have no idea what they would be called in Swedish.

If O+S were to carry them I would pick up a pair in no time!

Perhaps into the dress but have it hidden inside the lining?
Sorry , on my phone

Will these help?

I know what I do but I am not sure what it is called….

I stitch a small stitch into the sash ( 2mm) and that goes to a longer running stitch in the dress lining (1 cm), pulling so it is firm but does not pucker.

I will see if I can find a picture for you.

Here you are, with baby fingers for scale 🙂

Really nice shears, needles, and pins, maybe a really nice thread for hand sewing delicate items? I’d be interested in something nice that I can’t get at JoAnn — not a consumable staple but something upgraded.

Absolutely Rebecca.
I would lay the bodice with the skirt and cut as one piece.
I have a tute here if you would like an idea of how it goes together.

I agree Rebecca
My 6 year old measures a 2!

They do and they are Linda

Hugo managed to get some rice cereal into trixie so she slept all evening instead of me feeding all evening
I got the trousers and skirt made and a Continental blouse made up to setting in the sleeves

I prewashed some lawn to make another trial run for husbands Liberty shirt. He has lost weight so the last one is too baggy now
