Jay, a new machine sounds so exciting! What do you have in mind?

Oh Nicole…. we are good. I wanted to give @justsewit some support, some hugs.

The stats on maternal mortality around the world are truly terrifying. We are so lucky to live in this world today, compared to even a few generations ago, when pregnancy and delivery were truly life threatening.

Aaaargh, the irritation of discovering that you forgot to change your stitch length back between basting and sewing. Now to go and unpick a well colour matched thread on a moderately loosely woven linen/cotton blend, all to be packed in while the babe has her first ever over an hour nap in her crib without being latched on…. quick, come here…[Read more]

I hope ours come in soon! They didn’t have any last time I checked 🙁

@motherof5 is this the one? http://www.purlbee.com/2014/04/08/corinnes-thread-baby-sunbonnet/

Because I went on the Purl Soho website and looked at all their lovely patterns and now I want to make a bonnet for Olivia! Perhaps out of leftover fabric to match the Easter dress I’ll be sewing her…

If I was a more experienced (and faster) knitter,…[Read more]

You always feel such a sense of marvel when you realize that just a few generations ago, your husband might’ve come home from the hospital alone. Very, very grateful for what we have and for modern medicine.

@Rhythm, I would also love to hear any of your meal ideas on this thread http://oliverands.com/community/forums/topic/whats-for-tea-today-mum !

Thank you for the warm welcome! We do get a lot of interesting fabric here. I will try to post information on any interesting stuff I come across. In fact added a picture in the flickr pool yesterday of an onstage tutu skirt in ivory net fabric with brasso work – beautiful fabric!

Welcome, and what a charming photo of your family. I hope our India members will write about the types of local fabrics and supplies they use, it would be fascinating!

Oh, will you post a link?

justsewit, sorry if that came off sounding like a command. By all means do whatever works for you.

The sewing fairy whispered in my ear that people who’ve given birth are allowed to take more than a week off 🙂 The sewing machine won’t grow legs and walk off.
