After dinner last night I managed to make a ham and cheese pie for tonight, and while I was at it I also made the lamb meatballs in tomato sauce I had planned tomorrow night.
When I made the pies I chopped up too much leek and I mixed some extra egg and milk for the filling so I had…[Read more]

After reading my own post, I would just baste and neaten the dress and lining together and then add the yoke, as per usual.

I’m thinking of doing a Playdate (before my kid grows out of it!) in some very nice Cloud 9 voile. It definitely needs a lining – any advice?
