Argh, image too large. Looking at it now, i think it’s close enough.

Here’s a photo. Is that a negligible difference?

Oh, I understand what to do. But the bold lines weren’t lining up. I’ll post a picture. It might be that it’s a small enough difference not to matter…

EmilyG, that sounds like the look I want. I will try that and report back!

Thanks for the replies. I don’t have any knit interfacing, so unless I find some in the next week or so, I’ll give it a try without. I’m toying with the idea of colour blocking it with fleece and quilting cotton. Could be cute!

I picked up a Simplicity pattern recently, 2526 (toddler coat, jacket, hat and pants), mostly for the pants, but I overbought fleece so I decided to try the coat.

OMG, am I missing Liesl’s detailed instructions! There seem to be huge gaps in the instructions and the illustrations are almost useless. I’m not too worried about how it’ll go…[Read more]

I’d love that too. The big 3 have tons of PJ patterns but I don’t know how good they are.

Wish I’d seen this when they were still on sale…those are the only kind of pants my DH wears and they’re tough to find in nicer fabrics.

Justine, I LOVE your sewing machine cover! Cape Ann, right? Super cute!

Wow, you are all quite creative. Here’s what is making my storage tough–patterns like the Metro T for women. I’ve got it taped together and it’s awkward and big, won’t fold down that well since it’s on regular printer paper.

I’ll try the folders for the kid traced patterns. I mostly sew for my 2 year old so his patterns are quite small.
