A skirt and some pants

Based on that pattern, I’m sure the jeans pattern could…[Read more]

What an interesting topic — now I want to go look for denim! I wonder if I can find anything locally.

@dubhels2003 , did you buy some after your meeting?

I just purchased some black coated denim (not from there, I wish) and I am itching for it to be my turn on the #sewingrota.

I am sorry for your loss @thejennigirl.

I am so pleased Shelley. I have made that size before and it worked so I assumed your fabric must have stretched.

I just need to sew the button hole on Elsa’s blazer and it is done!

Next, a pair of navy Deer and Doe shorts for school.

For the record: If you accidentally trace the size 10 waistband and facing, don’t try and attach it to the size 5 shorts. Doh.
Stuff up resolved.
