Heidi,what a kind and generous soul you are!
I must admit I can’t measure my daughters as it is MIA,however,I was given the great tip of crossing the shoulders straps as my Matilda is such a mini moo it falls off her shoulders.

They’re such a useful resource, it would be so nice to have them all collected in one easy-to-browse spot.

Don’t forget the mail order option. It can take a week but they hunt around and find it all for you!

I was thinking at first of inserting my sheer fabric between the hem and the hem facing, where the pink…[Read more]
