Congratulations Heidi, what a bonus getting more patterns!

It sounds like everyone has their sew-jo at the moment, I love reading what people are up to.

I did manage to measure myself, accept what babies have done to my body which isn’t the end of the world, pull myself together and trace the everyday skirt pattern and cut it out of blue…[Read more]

Awww, thank you Sandi and Sharon.
I ~finished~ Zara’s (15) skort, hurrah!
So excited about this as I stupidly drafted the pattern to her tiny waist (size 6) instead of her hips (size 10)!

Goodness, your conditions sound very similar to our area @sahmcolarado with our average rain about the same as yours (maybe a tad more). We usually have our “winter break” in May but 11mm isn’t a winter break at all! Now I know where all the rain has been falling.
