Love your fabric choice for the culottes Katy. Maybe I should play along and make a pair for Lucy…. Afraid I shan’t be making the girl Fridays for myself – as much as I love all Liesl’s pins, I am just the wrong shape for them… 😉

Yep, these are the knits. 3 colourways of the floral, the crosses, and the scallops/stripes, and two colourways of the random dots and the circles. (Sorry – should have arranged them better for the pic – they were shelved rather haphazardly). I have uploaded the pic to the O+S Flickr group – you should be able to see it better there

For those in Australia – it seems the new Lisettes have made their way to Spotlight – I found what looks like the full range of the new knits today at Spotlight Rockdale. They are $16.95/m, but are currently on special for $11.90/m…..not trying to enable anyone or anything….. 😉

Yes – roller skate, hopscotch and Icecream (my personal fav – I have made a colour blocked version using linen) – & adding bubble, tea party (but both only go to size 5, although my 6.5 yr old still fits into them), music box and popover 🙂

It is possible, but would depend the width of your fabric and whether or not you are using fabric with a directional print. The pieces need to be cut as mirror images of themselves, so ideally you would cut with the fabric folded. Knit fabric is usually quite wide (which IMO makes it a bit wasteful when making little people clothes) – the best…[Read more]

Ahhh, Shelley – you beat me to it – your average Aus print shop can’t print the large format sheets 🙁 – but as you say, taping the pages isn’t actually that big an issue – I do it while watching tv – I don’t sew at night any more, so this is a way I can do something sewing related and still be sociable.

@kerrilyn – Nicole’s amazing huh? And she certainly is the perfect ambassador for O+S 🙂

And I agree that the sunny day shorts do make fab boxers – all mine have some (actually, my boys made their own)

As for the hot weather, I’m already a bit over it (are you in Sydney?)

I read an article about the snow storm yesterday – the accompanying pictures were amazing. I can’t imagine what it would be like to live somewhere where it snows (I shall confess here – I have never seen snow!)

It was Harry’s birthday on Friday (12) – so my weekend has been a huge party fest – we had my parents and my FIL for dinner in Friday,…[Read more]
