An Aussie Autumn with some new O + S patterns won’t be the same; however, our Spring should be fun when the new book comes out. Very much looking forward to it.

I can’t decide which is my size
Do I go by my waist or my thighs?
I could measure my head
Or my chest instead

You can think of the book that will be out in September as one gigantic, huge Oliver + S pattern. Or a large number of Oliver + S patterns.

But that’s all I’m saying for now….

There is rumoured to be a new book
The cover, it has a good look
But I just can’t decide
If I step up or hide
Perhaps a challenge to be undertook

Jenny, I get “rattled” watching what is happening in the US. And it’s hard to work in the industry you do.

Sew something pretty. Hug your kids.

So wish I could just pop by for a gab and some stitching. Hang in there.

Maybe make a size 5 with extra length? You can always cross tie the straps across the back like my friend did with the first one I made her daughter that was initially to big, she ended up wearing it for 3 years straight!

So I have been in an absolute FUNK. 🙁

This primary election business is getting to me because of all the vitriol and I can’t simply turn away because it is our future. (US) (That’s all I will say about politics here.)

And work has been icky. I’ve had to deal with more people who think that fists are an acceptable form of communication…[Read more]

I’m wearing a merino fleece Metro T right now! Have a look at http://www.thefabricstore.com.au the have an L.A. store so US shipping should be reasonable.
There’s an amazing outdoor fabric supplier in the UK that I’ve purchased from, and I keep finding one in Canada when I’m searching online, but I forget the name….

How do you like your concord Tamara? I love mine and have been wearing it weekly. I’ve already traced a hacked version with a Kwiksew 3915 runched v neck collar.

@justsewit, you could always send her a friendship request. Once it is accepted you’ll be able to send a private message.

Yes, I think @justsewit might be right. It’s difficult to tell from the photos, but you might want to try a swayback adjustment. Or maybe you just need to take in the hips more? It sort of looks like if you pin the hips, especially at the back, to be a little tighter you’ll eliminate the drag lines. It definitely doesn’t need to be looser–overall…[Read more]

There could be a a couple things here.

The name and the @ tag are not always the same. If I would try to send a message to @Tamara it wouldn’t get through to you because that’s your display name. I would need to address it to @justsewit because that’s your username. Could that be it?

The second thing it could be is something new–so it wouldn’t…[Read more]
