Vacation is three weeks away!
On white sandy beaches we will play!
In swimwear I’ve made

Vacation is three weeks away!
On white sandy beaches we will play!

(I wish!)

My sewing machine’s gathering dust …
My scissors have started to rust …
The pins,they are lonely
I would use them, if only…
Nah, eff it! Las Vegas, or bust!

(Sorry ’bout the language)

Moving on!

Vacation is three weeks away!

(Do you spot a theme?)

I tend to shop by feel and drape so I am not much help with names…

May I say, if anyone makes you feel bad, they are the jerks, not you!

You ask your questions, only a stupid person stops learning.

Shirts with two piece collars and cuff plackets are always on my radar.
I would love your instructions for these.

Cargo shorts, something like the Field Trip with no waist band/elastic back casing would be great as work/casual wear.

We love our food @lisamm Thank you for the suggestion. My Biggies were ‘Smash’ fans so when we saw the exhibition flyer, we booked extra days accommodation so we could see it.

Would love to go but I’m in the west so it would be a hefty drive. Had the season been much better for us last year, we would have been able to plan a trip to Victoria to visit family and look around. I hope there will be something as equally fantastic in the future so we might be able to “take a jaunt” out there and look.

Swim trunks that are not board shorts (he has a pair that are a bit more tailored which he loves) and a slim button-up shirt, please!

(Stop trying to make fetch happen! 😉 )

This denim it just will not stretch
When I wear it I feel I must retch
So tight ’round my guts
I have back and front butts…
Luckily pink tracksuit Wednesdays are “fetch!”

Oops! Missed yours Nicole… sorry

This denim it just will not stretch
When I wear it I feel I must retch
So tight ’round my guts
Curse my love of beer nuts

Thanks for reminding me of Ashley’s fabric sourcing tips. A pair of cargo shorts in that kind of nylon blend is exactly what my husband would want me to sew for him (getting my threads crossed)

It’s a pity it isn’t touring😕

Yes a resounding yes! My almost eleven year old son has well and truly outgrown Oliver and s and I have been hard pressed to find anything decent and age appropriate ever since. My husband also desperately needs some new things and is a “hard to fit” man because he is very very broad and I have had no end of trouble trying to find things to sew…[Read more]
