Thank you Todd (blush) #weihadawaist #wehehadhair 😉

Yes @Todd Gibson, my phone is on a different provider.
I am not sure about the http thingy, I shall ask Hugo!

Awesome!

@lilypadmontana, my pleasure. Sarvi & Colette sent me some divine hailspot muslin and I made one for Trixie. She is still wearing the blouse and bottoms but grew out of the bodysuit very quickly.
It was fine over a disposable for a bit longer. I actually gave it away in a sewing store. The owner was raving about Beatrix’s outfit and she promptly…[Read more]

Great ideas Kerrilyn, lots of food, sleep and exercise works for my only boy. He had broken two (yes two) very expensive European irons throwing his footy in the house.

I am very glad to live on a farm, he was encouraged to start hiking and camping from a very young age 🙂

Masha did a few of these. I think she bound the arm so the binding was inclosed (all on the inside).

Thank you Lovely Ladies!

It is my 21st wedding anniversary today!

I have no idea what I did just now….
Help, Hugo!

Did it again.

I made the tiny size for Trixie but she only wore is a few times. It was the getting on that was the problem, it was fine once on but chubby baby arms don’t always bend the way you want them too.
And my babies are very placid and easy to dress.

I would make the 6-12 month in your position, you have it for next summer as well then. Also, if you…[Read more]

Sounds exciting!
@lilypadmontana, if you use cloth nappies, make the bodysuit in the second size. It will fit for longer. And you want it to fit, it is so cute!

I think I know someone, I will drop them a line.

I am always very grateful for pretty hand-me-downs 😉

I typed a great long post and the internet ate it but, in a nutshell, if you are worried about too many posh dresses, sew the school shirts.
Use beautiful fine cotton, Liberty facings and pearl buttons.
I enjoy sewing Hugo’s work clothes almost as much as Trixies pretty frocks as I use lovely…[Read more]
