    It sounds as if they need a farm stay. 🙂

    I too give both my kids dates. I try to sandwich them in with a scheduled activity. EG: Alex has dance at 4-5 and 7-8 on Friday evenings. Every couple of weeks from 5-7 we grab dinner and go to the book store or something to make a date of it. So I try to sneak in the date like that.

    Sometimes at home, I will also tell one child (when there…[Read more]

  • I am in the US. I have to double load the O & S site too. But only on mobile devices, whether on cell or wifi. (iPad/iPhone).

    My desk top loads ok, and both are wifi.

    As to http or https, my address bar shows neither. There is no http displayed.

    Finished the jeans and they fit really well, I am so pleased.
    I ended up taking 20cms from the leg and added a few cm’s to the waist but they look really good and he likes them.
    Win!

    Next up a KwikSew polo top and some knit shorts for Jed.

    And then some exciting sewing, a hot pink linen Garden Party dress for a special OS, O+S sweet girl.

    Yes @Todd Gibson, my phone is on a different provider.

    Awesome!

    @lilypadmontana, my pleasure. Sarvi & Colette sent me some divine hailspot muslin and I made one for Trixie. She is still wearing the blouse and bottoms but grew out of the bodysuit very quickly.
    It was fine over a disposable for a bit longer. I actually gave it away in a sewing store. The owner was raving about Beatrix’s outfit and she promptly…[Read more]

    Great ideas Kerrilyn, lots of food, sleep and exercise works for my only boy. He had broken two (yes two) very expensive European irons throwing his footy in the house.

    I am very glad to live on a farm, he was encouraged to start hiking and camping from a very young age 🙂

    Masha did a few of these. I think she bound the arm so the binding was inclosed (all on the inside).

  • I am in the U.S. but I have also noticed a problem with the site loading – it has been at least a month, and it happens on both my computer and my husband’s iPad. I always have to go up to the search bar on my browser and hit enter to make it reload before it will load up. If I don’t do that, it just says “loading” indefinitely. This is for the…[Read more]

    Oh, good grief Nicole! Look at how gorgeous the two of you looked on that day! Timeless beauties–both of you. I wouldn’t have been able to tell if that photo could have been taken 150 years ago or just last year.

    Congratulations!
