@vothgirl, my knit version was a bit voluminous too, but it is awesome as a smart casual evening top.

Hallo Kerrilyn (waves furiously)

Wow, thank you, what a buzz!

I will admit I am completely won over by the O+S patterns and do wax lyrical but they are that good!

I am so glad you have joined.

I will do the first line for Spoony, I can IOU her 🙂

I am pretty sure it would not be deleted.
With the old flickr accounts only a certain amount of photos were visible if you were a free account customer, if you had a Pro account, all your photos were visible.

I find it useful to create albums of photos and categorise them to make it easier to find them in the future.

Perhaps try searching…[Read more]

pssst… if you complete it, you get to start the new one!! 😉

My sewing machine’s on the fritz
I want to smash it to bits
But I know if I do
There’ll be hell to pay too

Basements really do cramp your sewing, don’t they? I can’t sew a seam and watch my kids. I can’t sew and chat. I can’t go, “oooh look honey, how good this is turning out.” (Although come to think of it, I get the same response to the empty basement that I do from my husband.– hahahah). Anti social, really. I do sew less in the basement.…[Read more]

Kim has been kind enough to update the checklist for everyone again to include styles through Fall 2014! Thanks Kim.

There once was a quilter named Lizzy
But quilting was making her dizzy
So she looked for a dress
She could sew to impress

Since we’ve moved, I’m in the basement (windowless, sob) too, Cybele. I find that I sew much less 🙁 Part of it is that I do have a great deal less time to sew than I used to, and part of it is that I hate being in a windowless space. I have grand plans to hang some tapestries on the walls and decorate the exposed beam ceiling with twinkle…[Read more]

That is simply lovely!
