Maybe not the display you were meaning @todd, but this was my store tonight.

That is crazy interesting @Todd! I always wondered how the yardage was planned, I imagined someone cutting each size out and lining it up, glad to know it is (possibly) less time consuming than that. I love all these behind the scenes ‘secrets’ you have all been sharing lately between here and instagram. Keep ’em coming! 😉

I will put my Nana hat on and advise a fine gauge wool singlet, preferably merino.

Lucky ducks, I hope it is a good price.
I *may* have already placed an order for them (and for a sewing chum)

Snap, I am sorting too, but just adding to/taking from tubs. I swopped my clear Ikea tubs over to smoked ones in the hope it will prevent fading.

Coating cut for Hugo’s peacoat, onto the lining.

Sarvi, the culottes would be perfect, what about a Jumprope polo top?

The only super safe way to scrimp is to lay out your pattern. The pieces are quite wide so you may well need your yardage.

I think you are looking for the McScrooge thread 🙂
I will have a look for you.

You would look killer in the Bistro dress with some tights and a cardi.

I have an old treadle in my sitting room, I keep a block of wood under the foot pedal to stop the babies pinching their fingers. 🙂

Must Not Buy More Liberty……

Awesome!

Paper Puppet Show love.

Wow, that is a lot of work but looks amazing! I am sure that would work.

I am not a fan of binding seams (I love the look just find it a bit tedious) I would wonder about flannel for the main and something silky for the sleeves?

But I am sure the underlining would work really well.

I would love a larger size hat pattern. My offspring have gi-normous heads.
