Isn’t it? I want the bunny print from the catalogue also but Chloe was not in the mood to shop so, next time.

I topstitched the teaparty dress and made buttonholes but that is all the actual sewing I did today.

I cut three layette shirts and two bodysuits all with white backgrounds so I can sew them all at the same time.

Have you tried farmhouse fabrics?

Today I managed to complete these! https://www.flickr.com/photos/justsewit_tk/16295428523/in/pool-oliverands

Tomorrow I plan to finish the tea party dress and two of the three bubble dresses.

I am up to handstitching the lining down on two of the three bubble dresses. I have cut another pair of lullaby layette pyjamas and plan to work on them tomorrow before returning to the third bubble.

Wow babies everywhere! This is wonderful! I am happy to report to all pending and new (and new again) mamas out there that the lullaby layette pattern rocks as pyjamas for a newbie also. I am yet to post the photos of my little one in her new ones but I am ecstatic to report that they worked a treat last night in keeping her warm and she only woke…[Read more]

Yes long sewing rooms do have that advantage don’t they?

Yesterday, I made a start on the three bubbles by sewing the skirt pieces together. I have two yet to press out the curvy sides and then I can sew the linings to the skirt of two of them because I haven’t yet cut a third.

I also have topstitching on the little Tea party dress bodice to do…[Read more]

Wow not long to go at all!

Yes I thought I would have no opportunity either for the first few months but she isn’t the trickiest baby I’ve had. We seem to have fallen into a little pattern where she will sleep long enough for me to do something. Of course it doesn’t always go to plan like yesterday where she spent some time in the swing while I…[Read more]

Oh I am in complete understanding of the insomnia Masha! I had that too! Which month are you due? So glad you did the layette first – its done then and you can focus on the needs of the bigger kiddies for a while longer before baby demands the whole of your attention. I have posted on your photo btw re: your need for input on the little dress for…[Read more]

It’s a fabulous tool to have Heidi! Like a rag book for chemistry students.

I have a pile of fabric on my cutting table as I am currently having a solitary debate over what to use for the bubble I want to make. I think I am leaning towards either the Heather ross print I used for the layette bodysuit or the Cape Ann print I used for the layette…[Read more]

A skirted bottom would be perfect – can definitely see this being a hit!

Yes charming boys patterns that have today’s style with yesterday’s class – sounds like we have them anyway but could do with more perhaps.

Do the baby stuff first Masha. The layette is a very quick sew. You could do several pairs of pants altogether in one sitting they are so straight forward.

Baby Chloe is now wearing her pyjamas but the bubbles didnt get cut – yet!
