Sarvi replied to the topic japanese tana lawn at spotlight on in the forum off topic 10 years ago

Do you guys know if this is Tana (Liberty’s lawn) or the Japanese cotton lawn Spotlight had before? Nicole sent me some of that and I have been hoarding it. It’s gorgeous, with a crisper hand than Tana, I think it will hold pleats better and I have it in mind for a Music Class blouse. Just wanting to check since a friend recently posted a photo of…[Read more]
Sarvi replied to the topic Tips for fabric shopping in New York in the forum off topic 10 years ago

Just a quick note that I merged the two NYC fabric shopping threads since both had great info.

Bumped the old thread for you! Oh, I used to love MASH, watched it all the time as a kid (I was not very closely supervised 🙂

Bump!
Masha Richart replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

My plans to make a single swimsuit during Kids Clothes Week turned into a mad rush to complete a million garments – mostly knits. I’ve cut up some old dresses of my mom with sentimental significance and made little sundresses for her granddaughters, made a few pairs of summer pjs for the boy and finished up the baby WIPs that have been sitting in…[Read more]

I was about to nominate myself here : http://bartacksandsingletrack.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/first-birthdays.html?m=1 but that’s bias binding on the bodice facing. I don’t think I did anything special on the hem facing…

@Darcy I made that chickpea salad for myself today – it was delicious!
Sarvi replied to the topic Vegetarian Lunch Options in the forum Cooking and Baking 10 years ago

This is not so much lunch as a micro snack but my kid was asking for peanut butter so I blitzed half roasted almonds and half roasted & salted sunflower seeds. Pretty fantastic in a little ‘sandwich’ between crackers, and really held her over well.
roundtheworldgirl replied to the topic Vegetarian Lunch Options in the forum Cooking and Baking 10 years ago

like you, Darcy, we are not vegetarians but eat vegetarian (actually, vegan!) a lot. I love a hearty salad. To make it filling without animal proteins I add sunflower seeds, chickpeas, several different kinds of vegetables and fruits, and top it off with a tahini-based dressing.

A little more time consuming but very yummy is lettuce wraps…[Read more]
Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Cute things kids say or do in the forum off topic 10 years ago

My four year old was helping me hang washing and was naming things as she passed them to me:
“your undies mummy,
My brother’s sock,
Daddy’s nose blow thing,
…”

Laundry names seem to be a sticky point as she once asked me, very loudly, in the swimming pool change rooms:
“where you get that booby holder from, mummy?”
Nicole replied to the topic Little Layette in the forum Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 10 years ago

I would love powder blue linen with white, piped with navy.
My son (nearly 18) wore frilly tartan shirts with navy trousers, which is possibly dated now but I do think a check or a tartan ‘mans’ up a baby outfit.

Monsters, (snort) oh dear. 🙂

I made up the Puppet Show in white hailspot muslin for my baby before I knew what it was.
I also think the Hide and Seek tunic would look gorgeous on a wee baby boy.

Do you have the Puppet Show? I wonder if that collar would fit?
