I “thrifted” an old orange chair
The seat and the arms are threadbare
The legs are still good

thejennigirl I am so sorry for your loss.

@justsewit I hope Murray is doing better. I enjoyed your photos of your girls on Flickr. It sounds like school is going so well for Imogen, illness notwithstanding. Hope she is feeling better.

@dubhels2003 I always find clean slates to be exhilarating. Hope this change brings great things for you.

Call me a cab ‘cuz I’m late
Once again there’s too much on my plate
A skirt and some pants
To wear to a dance
And a new dress – perhaps Roller Skate!

Two of my younger siblings got engaged over the holidays and are planning fall weddings – my four children and my niece and nephew will be in the weddings. I will be sewing two sets of three flower girls’ dresses and hopefully just the one set of three Art Museum ensembles that the boys will wear for both.

Who is learning to skate
Ice dancing in Spain I adore!

Black coated denim, navy and light blue. Jeans and shirts is a pretty standard uniform for me.

Kwik Sew do a very nice jeans pattern that is easy to adjust due to the pattern layout.

I have had good success adapting the Sketchbook shorts too.

Hi @sallycsklarsky, I have been mulling this over for a few days now.

May I point out my tute https://www.pinterest.com/pin/73676143876173067/ ? Have a look at that and I will come back and add how I think a lining may work.

Sorry not to be more help.

Have a look at Titchy Threads patterns. The Small Fry skinny jeans should tick all your boxes.
I haven’t made them up, but I have made the Twisted Trousers which have pocket with pocket bag coin pocket etc and excellent instructions. I made them in denim and they’ve been great looking jeans.
Based on that pattern, I’m sure the jeans pattern could…[Read more]
