Leggings to protect baby knees! And keep the dresses for those times when she won’t be crawling – ie shopping trips.

I love the very short dresses and bloomers with chubby baby legs – so cute!

I have changed my mind about the miracle blanket! My baby is a regular little Houdini! So I think ditching the idea of making one is a very good idea and using the cut pieces for something else.

I am also currently trying to convince the eldest daughter to let me make her first formal dress – this is definitely not the time to improvise with no…[Read more]

In answer to your question Nicole, the biggies need everything! Miss Chloe just needs a few pretties in the 3-6 month size so they are ready but much more in the next size again – slow progress sewing.

It makes it very difficult when you have a little boy one minute then you see him literally growing in his sleep the next – my mother infuriated…[Read more]

Heidi its expensive and slow as a wet week! I ordered some miracle blankets and I swear they are walking them across the Nullabor still! They were sent ofer a week ago from NSW.

I managed to sew for an hour last night and again today. I didn’t get a heap done though – just a lot of fiddling and procastinating. I managed to cut and sew neck and…[Read more]

Oh that is good news! I have to get my sewing skates on then and make room for them.

It certainly can be challenging running from one end of the house to the other. But if you plan it out it can be doable – i love my slow cooker for that purpose!

I had to help cut out a dolphin pattern with Imogen the other day. She sat there and stitched it together by hand minus instructions. With no power I have had no chance to sew but hope…[Read more]

I’ve made a head start (seeing as I put a child to work – she wants to have so much homework this year to get out of doing dishes – every kids dream escape plan) and am back to the usual on the dishes anyway. The laundry is another story!

@Nicole no popping tummy stitches from you please! It ain’t fun and frustrating to be made to do nothing of…[Read more]

Hip hip hooray the power has been restored – and I have the all clear from the doc!

I love all of them and the dress is fantastic! I wonder how that will go for nursing? I am suspecting it would be easy to adapt.

They won’t be ready for Easter will they?

Sometimes I really hate living in the bush! We have had no power since Monday night 9pm. The generator threw a wobbly when we tried to wash dishes (using the machine) and has been touchy ever since. One air conditioner going flat out and we are all sent to bed at 7.30 so we can have cool bedrooms!

Aching for the power to return so that I can do…[Read more]
