What about the Hopscotch or the Butterfly? Personally I like the swingset in lightweight fabrics.

Since many of us are spending lots of time indoors during the colder months, it’s a great chance to start planning spring sewing. What’s in store at your house? Any big plans? Colorful projects in the works? Do tell!

Time to reactivate this thread….
There’s nothing that I would like more
Then to visit a distant shore
Lend a hand to a mate

Cooking and Baking 8 years agoForty-five degrees Celsius?!? Is that for real? If it’s that hot outside, you wouldn’t need to cook the Bolognese on the stove. Just throw all the raw ingredients in a pot in the morning and set it outside in the sun for the day. By the time the sun goes down at night, you’ll have a finished sauce waiting for you!
Stay cool.

Cooking and Baking 8 years agoHere’s a little Liesl + Co. secret. I do all the company’s cooking.
One of the things I like to do on days when I can work from home (which is most days now in Madrid) is make a good Bolognese sauce. I spent today making my famous “All Day Bolognese,” and @admin asked me for my recipe.
I never use recipes; I cook by feel. So I wrote up for him…[Read more]

Black coated denim, navy and light blue. Jeans and shirts is a pretty standard uniform for me. -

Hi @sallycsklarsky, I have been mulling this over for a few days now.
May I point out my tute https://www.pinterest.com/pin/73676143876173067/ ? Have a look at that and I will come back and add how I think a lining may work.
Sorry not to be more help.

Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Fabric Minimum in the forum liesl + co: woodland stroll cape 8 years ago
Ack, that’s the worst! I narrowly squeezed out my Lisette pjs from the Liberty I purchased before the pattern was finished, and I was sweating that it wouldn’t work out. I spent more time arranging pattern pieces in create ways than I did cutting and sewing, I think!

@dubhels2003 , did you buy some after your meeting?
I just purchased some black coated denim (not from there, I wish) and I am itching for it to be my turn on the #sewingrota.

I am sorry for your loss @thejennigirl.

I am so pleased Shelley. I have made that size before and it worked so I assumed your fabric must have stretched.
I just need to sew the button hole on Elsa’s blazer and it is done!
Next, a pair of navy Deer and Doe shorts for school.
