Oh honey — that is a whole, whole lot of no fun at all. Wishing you a lot of courage and a few moments somewhere, somehow, for yourself. All I can say is that this too shall pass.

Sigh… I haven’t been able to sew since Christmas. I need it for my mental health. So much has happened in the past two months.

The wee one has been severely constipated since birth. I have tried every natural home remedy that was recommended by our doctor. Well she’s exhibiting symptoms of a blockage. So she has an appointment with a…[Read more]

Awww, thank you Melani and Shelley.
I agree, I think denim maketh the jeans, not just the pattern.

My new Macbook has arrived (skips and dances around the room)
Now I just need Hugo to get home from footy practice to set it up for me…..

Missed you guys so much!

I have just done the buttonholes on the “spelling bee” bubble and will sit down to sew the buttons on. I am currently wrestling with a stubbon self covered button and have to construct its partner. This will go on a denim teaparty dress I made yesterday and finished this morning – the thing is so stiff it stands up by itself! I have already made…[Read more]

@sayiamyou I LOVED those red skinny Sketchbook jeans of Nicole’s. They’re soooooo good.
I think almost any pattern can look jeans-ish if you use denim, an appropriate topstitching colour and do something jeans-esque to the back pocket. At least that’s my theory.

I recently used the Sketchbook for jeans for my daughter: https://www.flickr.com/photos/79480359@N03/14699004800/
And After School for my son:https://www.flickr.com/photos/79480359@N03/8668350104/
But my all time favourites were made by mixing the After School back with a modified Field Trip front:…[Read more]

Sorry all of you who are waiting. We can’t even announce the new patterns yet because someone (I won’t say who…) is spending this week enjoying some wonderful spring skiing in Utah, and he has to finish photographing the samples and editing the modeled photos once he gets home later this week. He’ll be working over the holiday weekend to get…[Read more]

I think Badminton would make a fantastic nightgown. Though I also have a Kwik Sew pattern that I love for nighties.

@sahmcolorado I think I will be doing this for my oldest girl too! She still takes a 2 or 3 width in the dress patterns but she needs 6 for length.

lol @Jess M. that is quite an impressive stack you have going!
