    When you ‘share’ the pics, you can adjust the ‘size’ to ‘medium’ which helps with loading, and downloading for the recipient. I’ve made the MB nearly as many times as RTWG (one of my favourite patterns) so I hope you can share on this site.

    Ditto to all the others’ comments, dear Jenny. So pleased that your dear little girl is doing better, and recovering her looks, and presumably her energy. I do empathise with the agony of trying to stay strong for a child in pain when you can’t stop it, and the illness requires grisly procedures. (Been there with my godson when he was little, many…[Read more]

    Could you post the photos here? (I’m not on Facebook but I’ve made the Music Box at least seven times so I might be able to help).

  • Masha Richart replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 11 years ago

    Ellen, I aspire to do that one day. My husband keeps talking about my sewing him a suit (and I fail to contain my laughter every time he mentions it) but a shirt I could probably do. It just feels daunting!

    In my quest to sew all the knits in my stash (where this came from, I have no idea), I have started making nursing loungewear. I found a…[Read more]

  • Masha Richart replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 11 years ago

    In my quest to sew all the knits in my stash (where this came from, I have no idea), I have started making nursing loungewear. I found a sweet pattern on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/listing/171370912/e-pattern-sweet-blossom-lingerie?ref=shop_home_active_1) that includes variations for a nursing sleep bra, camisole and gown. I made up the bra and…[Read more]

  • lattemama replied to the topic Long sleeves? in the forum oliver + s: garden party 11 years ago

    @motherof5 made this with long/longish sleeves on the grey dress with hot pink piping. I’m not sure how she lengthened it but maybe she’ll let us know 🙂

  • I haven’t added long sleeves to the garden party but I added the 3/4 from the School Photo Dress onto the family reunion dress. I used the top of the family reunion sleeve and the bottom of the school photo sleeve.
    I think the garden party would look lovley with the 2+2 long sleeves. You will want to check the armsythe of the 2 patterns unless…[Read more]

    Could you either upload a smaller photo or link to a photo hosted elsewhere (flickr allows for pretty big files) — I’m afraid I’m having a bit of trouble picturing the problem you’re describing.

  • So, we have had this pattern in our ‘stash’ for quite awhile, just waiting for the perfect opportunity to delve into sewing for ourselves {gulp}. Well, the perfect opportunity has arisen. . .capris with no matching blouse. However, we are about to be in the midst of a HOT summer in the South. I adore the styling of the 3/4 length sleeves, but am…[Read more]

    Oh my goodness, poor child and poor mama! I hope that she stays on track and doesn’t have to go through any more torture!

    They tested for celiac’s but not Crohn’s. I think I may have to go do some googling. Honestly, I am very unhappy with the specialists. Not because it went bad; the procedure they admitted her for in the ER was one that would have had to have happened anyways, just not on an emergency level. I am angry because the specialists were like… we…[Read more]

  • Even with the right fiber content, different knit qualities will feel and drape differently, so there’s no simple answer to this. Unfortunately. You really just have to feel them!

    I love these older names. So pretty and elegant.

    We are exhausted here at my home. Gigi has suffered from chronic constipation since birth- which led to difficulty controlling her bowel.

    Next year is Kinder, so I wanted this under control and I was done with all the normal interventions, ala diet and over the counter meds. They weren’t…[Read more]
