Are you able to get an invisible zipper foot for your machine Jay? I find they work better if you dont have a piping foot. Anotger thought, and I have done this in the past also, to stop the piping from bei g pushed away, is o baste it first. I know it is time consuming but it will give a better result if this is what your foot is doing to it.

On changing threads, I have changed projects to a pink floral and linen tea party dress. I have knickers to sew and the ensemble can move into the handstitching basket.

Tomorrow I will continue with the puppet show shorts so they can join the stitching basket too.

I can sympathise Sarvi because funnily enough I had the very same thought last Friday. Fortunately we can just stay home this Sunday instead and have a week’s entension. It is a very crazy thought especially in this household right now!

50 degrees is what get at night in winter but never ever during the day – we are too far north for such temps. It sounds as though there are plenty of ideas. Hope you find the perfect solution.

I have two pairs of puppet show shows cut and ready to sew. One is to pair with an angel top I am still working on and the other is a linen pair I didnt manage to get to before Christmas. I plan to make a tunic to go with it.

Happy Birthday Matilda hope you had a wonderful day!

I am busy tracing lots of patterns in larger sizes in preparation. The weather is teasing us as it does in Autumn and we are currently doing a little rugging up. So out comes the flannel fabrics and corduroy for inspection along with the voiles and light cottons for the last hurrah of summer…[Read more]

Do you generally do a usb back up Nicole? Or how do you back the photos up generally?

I have all my photos on the ipad but don’t trust cloud. So when I go to “empty out” the camera, I download onto the computer and back up the photo file to the usb.

We had one computer die on us a couple of years ago (thanks to too many storms) and I didn’t do…[Read more]

Jay I have no words of wisdom to add on the whole driving on the other side of the road thing as I have never done it! But I should think it will be a really great experience to be equipped with the knowledge of knowing how!

What do you do regarding obtaining an international driver’s license anyway? My nephew has just told us he applied for and…[Read more]
