Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 10 years agoI definitely agree with that. I love a tartan. That is so cute and both ideas are adorable! I will definitely be adding those to my sewing list for my future nephew! Look at how little they are!!

Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 10 years agoI do have the puppet show, @motherof5! Yes I’ll definitely try that! The hide and seek would be adorable too! What color do you think? I’m so inexperienced at sewing for boys! Give me baby girl and I’m golden but I’m still learning to get my creative juices flowing for little boy things! Hopefully this nephew will help things along 😉

Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 10 years agoI can’t help but think when I’m sewing the little layette (and I’m sewing it A LOT right now as almost all of my friends are having babies by the end of the summer) that it feels like a modern heirloom (contradiction, I know).
I’m making the bodysuit in a batiste which automatically makes it feel special and on certain ones I have been adding…[Read more]

Darcy Struble started the topic Vegetarian Lunch Options in the forum
Cooking and Baking 10 years agoSo I’ll start out by saying that we are not vegetarian but we don’t cook much meat in our house. We buy meat maybe once a month, maybe less. Although we do buy fish a little more than that. But anyway, we eat a plant based diet.
The hardest meal to go more vegetarian is lunch, what with sandwiches that are heavy in meat and such. So I thought…[Read more]

Cooking and Baking 10 years ago@roundtheworldgirl, what a bummer! My husband says the same thing happens to him with all melons, watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew… He still eats a little in the summer though.
@motherof5, we are hoping to build a hot house (glass house) next spring. We just moved into a new house so inside projects are being done this year and outdoor…[Read more]

Cooking and Baking 10 years agoOh, eggplant. I miss it! I loved it until I suddenly became allergic to it after my son was born. It’s been two years and it still makes my whole mouth itch when I eat it (and my hands if I cook with it). I deal with the discomfort for the occasional mouthful of baba ghanoush but eggplant parmesan is out 🙁
We had steak, sweet potatoes and…[Read more]

These are so cute!
I have a sewing one 🙂 I usually finish up sewing at night and then put the new garments outside her door and one morning she woke up and found them just outside her door and said “Mommy, the monsters made me clothes!”
That one cracked me up. It has now changed from monsters making it, to mermaids, to daddy. Oh well! One day…[Read more]

Darcy Struble replied to the topic Disney costumes for almost 3 year old? in the forum off topic 10 years ago
We are going in September to disney world! I don’t have tons of ideas for boys. I like the sailboat pattern for Mickey and you can make tons of disney shirts with the school bus. Or you could do a gaston costume out of the parachute polo pattern. The main part in red with a yellow collar and black pants (art museum maybe) any black pants really…[Read more]

Cooking and Baking 10 years agoMmmmmm eggplant! I tried to grow it last year and failed :/ is it a fall thing? I tried growing it in the summer!
Sarvi, our farmer’s market opens this weekend and I’m sooooo excited for some local eggs! I totally agree, supermarket eggs leave a lot to be desired!

Cooking and Baking 10 years agoOh my! All of these recipes sound great!
One of my favorite meals to make are pouches. Super quick. Last night we layered salmon on top of asparagus (it’s asparagus season here yay), drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper and topped the salmon with a couple sprigs of thyme and a couple slices of lemon. They are wrapped in their serving…[Read more]

Lightning McStitch replied to the topic your wish list in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago
Yep, I’ve seen it done with one end crossing the other at the V point, but personally I think it looks better if the ends are joined at the correct angle to give a vertical seam in the neck binding at the V point.
Then there’s just the technical aspect of sewing an acute angled neckband into an obtused angled neckhole. Ha ha, look at me, now I’m…[Read more] -

And I third it, which means I should probably work out how to do it, right?!

Wendy I can’t agree more about what a buzz it is seeing my made clothes being worn again. I just received a gorgeous photo from the UK of a beautiful girl wearing my daughter’s outgrown dress and it felt like such a gift to me!

When you walk out of a shop, not loaded up with bags, but with camera shots of everything you want to recreate.
