50F in California and I’d be wearing one of those red snowsuits polar explorers wear. 76-81F with little humidity. My system finds no other temperatures enjoyable.

I am FINALLY making a Hide and Seek tunic – of course, I bought the pattern in the smaller size and just realized that the kiddo is going to be out of a size 4 any second. Good thing this is a generous fit and I added a couple of inches in length…it’s coming along wonderfully; I’m using fabric from Tula Pink’s new line along with a ponte de…[Read more]

I’d sew the blazer too 🙂 A knit cardigan would be wonderful as well – they are my personal favorite thing to wear so my girls get new ones each year (store-bought). Now that I have dipped my toes into the waters of swimsuit sewing, it occurs to me that an O+S swimsuit pattern with a couple different views would be awesome …

Yes, up feeding Jay.
I just though of you, we just passed a beautifully restored 1950 Holden sedan on the highway

I found the wings in the dress up box Mel, they have elastic at the underarms elbow and wrist
I will take a piccie got you
I still think the penguin look the best

I finished the sketchbook shirt, 5 hours from drafting the pattern to completely finished
Considering Trixie has a cold ( and needed lots of cuddles) I was pretty happy with that
We are on our way to the party and it is a glorious day

Just popping in to say that if you already like digital you will love these ones
Rather then glueing together a huge sheet one pieces just the patterns pieces
It will make sense when you print

A big welcome to you!

Oh, no worries, I had the advantage of knowing which threads I was looking for 🙂 Please give a shout if we give you any help with printing and such!

What a useful link, thanks for sharing!

Digital vs paper? How about a combo?

Oh and congrats on the babies/toddlers!

Hi Denise! You’re right, the patterns that went out of print are now happily available in digital, and some have been digital-only from the beginning. This is a popular topic, so if you don’t mind, I’ll give you a quick recap and then try to dig up some of the older links.

Tamara, I used the Darling Diapers Unlimited Pattern for the fitteds, but after I did that I found this site with lots of great free patterns. I used the NB/S squaretab to make my pockets and her FOE cover pattern for my covers.

Washyvision – brilliant!

We were talking about the less fortunate – my daughter (4 and 5) were asking whether there were people who didn’t have beds, etc. My 4-year-old thought for awhile and then asked whether their aunt was poor. Her reasoning was that auntie must be poor as she lives in a very small basement apartment (with an exorbitant…[Read more]

Nesting re-kicked in a few weeks ago and I spent that time sewing up a cloth diaper stash for the newbie. As soon as my order for more folder elastic arrives, I can finish the last cover, which will complete my stash of 12 newborn fitted diapers, four PUL covers and six nb/small adjustable pocket diapers complete with hemp/microfiber inserts (for…[Read more]
