    I confess I was hopi g to grab a moment to sew one last item for 2015 but didn’t get there. However, I am starting the sewing year off with a bang as I have traced six patterns in the new size required and am currently dilberating over which would be more suitable for my lovely and very precious Liberty lawn. Amongst them is the Pinwheel dress and…[Read more]

  • I love this skirt too! Especially on little girls with their cute toddler swagger😀 It’s an absolute keeper of a pattern for sure.

    Oh @thejennigirl😂 That sounds all too familiar. I have a confession to make! I ran off with my daughter’s sewing scissors because they were sharper than mine – and she hasn’t noticed yet😉😱

    There is one little problem though with “Pheobe” – she has measurements that would accomodate a size that Chloë would wear but she is long. She is actually the size for a 3 year old so I am thinking of sneaking a little one into the mix just so I can play dress up with a life sized doll that doesn’t wriggle and get dirty before the photos are…[Read more]

    That sounds very painful Heidi! Just rest up and make sure you are on the mend. Take care of the injury and hopefully you can trace patterns later in the week. Do you have anything to rub on the site to ease the pain?

    We are finding that broken bones are painful when they heel (So I don’t know how you would manage with your injury). Murray has…[Read more]

    Well, the sewing drought is now over (for now). I have just been spending some time this morning, sewing the little blue hopscotch skirt in size 12-18 months for Chloë. I started this before Murray’s accident so it has been waiting on the sewing table for much longer than the usual length of time.

    I am hoping to sew the white hide and seek tunic…[Read more]

  • How did you go Rosemary? Are you on your way again?

  • Tamara replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 8 years ago

    Heidi, just take a little look at jalie.com. They have a pdf pattern for pants and shorts that is very similar in style to the sketchbook/ cargos. Very extensive sizing so you might be able to fill the gap for this growing nephew of yours. Noah did the huge growth spurt thing just like that this past year or so. He is now in a small man’s size!

    I…[Read more]

    I didn’t really have a choice on the bag Heidi as it was the last day of school yesterday it was imperative or the recipient would have gone without her gift. I was going to make some decorated hair accessories but I just didn’t have the time. As it was the hour at night after the kids were in bed and the husband was showered (yes I have to help…[Read more]
