I’ve looked into this before, and for the small quantities I wanted, it was a bit more than I wanted to spend to get woven labels. There are lots of great option on Etsy for small batches of printed labels, but in the end I just had my daughter’s name printed a bunch of times onto a fat quarter from Spoonflower, and I cut them out as needed.

I think for a winter baby the pinwale cord might be fine — the pants haven’t got elastic at the ankle. If you’re one of our Southern Hemisphere friends and having a summery December, then yes, perhaps just the jacket in pinwale.

So annoying when that happens! Glad it got resolved!

I have sewn the ‘bloomers’ from the Seashore Sundress pattern in size 2T and they are not really like the traditional bloomers at all. They were more of a panty shape.

Mens trench coat! grown up Secret Agent Trench!
I just sewed up the size 12 coat and realised I won’t be able to make him another one 🙁

I’m in!
I don’t use Facebook very much ( I hate that it keeps trying to work out who I am and where I live) but I’m always happy to see what people are making with these lovely patterns

Ha, loving the playing with the snood! I think I’m going to try and crochet a snood once I’ve got a bit further with my crochet blanket.

I’ve just started work on a hide and seek dress for Lady E, my first time sewing this pattern. I’m still avoiding sewing all the other things I have got cut out for some reason! I’m doing some ‘kind of…[Read more]

That’s a very clever idea @kerrilyn !
This is how it looks as an oversized hairband:

I agree with Nicole, it’s not too slim and not too roomy. Enough ease to be comfortable without looking baggy.

Hi Judith, I haven’t got my copy handy, but could you snap a pic of yours so I can see what you’re seeing? Maybe it’s in a different spot than usual?

I haven’t but it’s on my to sew list. I need to do it soon as the girl it was requested for will only be in size 5 this winter and next 🙁

Thanks Tamara. I had worked it out and the second one took barely 5 mins. The third one my daughter made and wore all day like a giant hairband. Bit like those beautiful African village women wear, only it was light blue velour leftovers, so she looked like an African Elsa!
