Oh my goodness, poor child and poor mama! I hope that she stays on track and doesn’t have to go through any more torture!

Estelle is such a pretty name. I knew a little girl named Estella, who is about Imogen’s age.

The new Swedish princesses got rather unusual names. Estelle was born 3 years ago to the Crown Princess and Leonore last year to princess Madeleine.
Leonore will become a big sister on June – I wonder what they pick for him/her.
Oh and June will also see another Royal wedding (the last one for a while now) when Prince Carl Philip weds miss Sofia…[Read more]

I adore the name! I wanted Chloe to be a Charlotte! Elizabeth was a given for me I think because its Catherine’s middle name and Carol’s and also ties to Her Majesty. I think they chose beautifully.

Although I do hope that the next generation choose versions of the old names, like Elise instead of Elizabeth, just to mix things up slightly.

@dubhels2003 You got your wish! She’s a Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.

I think the Diana-part was a given, more or less. I’m a Charlotte myself (well, Charlotta to be honest, but close enough) and I don’t mind.

I made a little library dress from silk dupion and I did the version with the collar. I also have a pink silk one waiting to be sewn up.

It wouldnt matter where the silk came from or if it were dupion or Thai. It works beautifully with the pattern.

You may have to take care with laundering.

I’m not sure if I took a photo of the dress I made.…[Read more]

I made a banner for mine Jenny. My chaps just cut felt and glued it on.

Sometimes you can lose some seam allowance if the seam is not perfectly flat. Perhaps try dampening in and rolling it under your fingers.
Is the the step you are referring too?
