dubhels2003 started the topic Ethical concerns in the forum off topic 11 years ago

I am really interested in what others think about trying to sew things more ethically. I think there has been reference to this in a number of other posts, and on the blog. (If I am duplicating a post please merge it/bump the old thread!)

If we are sewing ourselves we are doing away with part of the manufacturing process. What about fabric…[Read more]

No cable here either but we have Hulu. I love Nashville and The Mindy Project. Hubby is in NYC tonight so I will be able to catch up on my chick shows and yes, I have some hand sewing to do too 🙂

I haven’t heard of Top of the Lake. What’s it about?

MASH is awesome! We were watching the one called Adam’s Ribs last night and They talked about ribs so much that we had to go out and buy ribs for dinner for tonight haha. They are in the oven now! And thanks @sarvi 🙂

Aha, what I was thinking of was not a blog post after all:

Totally confused – Attaching the Facing
Sarvi replied to the topic lovely insides in the forum oliver + s: birthday party 11 years ago

There was a blog post I recall about the birthday party dress, but I believe it had to do with how you construct the bodice lining (because you fold and crease it, then unfold it to stitch it). I don’t recall there being anything about the hem but let me have a peep and see if I can find it.
Sarvi replied to the topic japanese tana lawn at spotlight on in the forum off topic 11 years ago

Do you guys know if this is Tana (Liberty’s lawn) or the Japanese cotton lawn Spotlight had before? Nicole sent me some of that and I have been hoarding it. It’s gorgeous, with a crisper hand than Tana, I think it will hold pleats better and I have it in mind for a Music Class blouse. Just wanting to check since a friend recently posted a photo of…[Read more]
Sarvi replied to the topic Tips for fabric shopping in New York in the forum off topic 11 years ago

Just a quick note that I merged the two NYC fabric shopping threads since both had great info.
Sarvi replied to the topic Favorite TV Show to watch while handsewing in the forum off topic 11 years ago

Bumped the old thread for you! Oh, I used to love MASH, watched it all the time as a kid (I was not very closely supervised 🙂

Sarvi suggested Top of the Lake to me a while back and I loved it!
Darcy Struble started the topic Favorite TV Show to watch while handsewing in the forum off topic 11 years ago

Does anyone else do this? I sew up a bunch of stuff until I get to a hand sewing part and then throw them in the hand sewing basket I keep next to the couch and when my husband and I watch an episode at night, I do all my blind hems, or button sewing, etc.

I thought it would be fun to share favorite TV shows 🙂 We don’t actually have cable tv,…[Read more]
Darcy Struble replied to the topic Who wants to sew the Oliver + S skirts with me and win?? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 11 years ago

I just saw this but I’m totally in! My daughter (almost 3) saw the butterfly pattern and just about lost it she wanted the skirt so bad so I’m letting her “help” me 😉
Masha Richart replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 11 years ago

My plans to make a single swimsuit during Kids Clothes Week turned into a mad rush to complete a million garments – mostly knits. I’ve cut up some old dresses of my mom with sentimental significance and made little sundresses for her granddaughters, made a few pairs of summer pjs for the boy and finished up the baby WIPs that have been sitting in…[Read more]

I’m making a modified RRH cape from LTTS for my nieces 16th birthday! I have the outer navy cut and sewn as well as the vintage lining. Next up is the fleece interlining 🙂

I was about to nominate myself here : http://bartacksandsingletrack.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/first-birthdays.html?m=1 but that’s bias binding on the bodice facing. I don’t think I did anything special on the hem facing…
