Aww @Deepa, you are a sweetheart!

Welcome @Rhythm, I get so excited to see new people post here. How wonderful to be able to spend such a lot of time with your daughter.
(And sewing, that is second best)

Will do @Brittney, it is nothing fancy but it does the job. I made a Hopscotch nightie and I am super pleased with it.

‘Stomps foot and goes off in a huff’

@kgiff, new teacher. I may as well earn a few Brownie points 🙂

@with love Heidi, flexibility but responsibility. Roots and wings, as Jed and I like to say. 🙂

@EllenMCM, it has been so very hot here it seems a bit bonkers to be sewing trousers.

I made a tiny Tea Party for Beatrix today, purely as sewing therapy after the dress for my cousin. It was palate cleanser indeed.

Next up, some nighties for Trixie…[Read more]

@Reeni, very smart!

What a huge effort, you are doing them a massive favour. How kind of you.

Much more relaxing then my threading method….which involves tweezers, me swearing a lot and the children advising each other to stay away from mum.

Create, that is beautiful. I think I shall focus on sewing being more about creating, then working.

What a great idea, I can’t wait!

@vothgirl, Hugo has printed me up a ‘rota’ that everyone fills in. The Twins change their minds a lot before I get to them but that is have the fun. Once it is cut, that is it.

I finally finished my cousins dress. It is beautiful and if I have fitted the muslin correctly, should fit like a glove.

Rubber backed curtain fabric with washers sewn in the hem makes a very effective block out. Often curtain making shops will have remnants.

@kgiff, you will be very popular with the school. I have 27 drawstring bags to sew for the 2/3’s. The teacher wants to sort the skipping ropes.

Hugo suggested a picture. 🙂
