@jay 1965vw, you bet me to it! 🙂

I am so glad you have found a house, machines next.

Funny you mention that, Robin, I think that’s why there was a lot of interest in my Cinema dress. It was one of the first ones and I listed my measurements in a fair amount of detail. I think folks intended to be complimentary when they called me brave, but why wouldn’t I? I guess I don’t think people necessarily refrain from posting that info out…[Read more]

Joining flicker was a New Year’s resolution for me in 2011. And I kept checking to see if anyone had looked at my stuff. It took awhile. Joining groups helped, and a few pieces have been profiled on blogs. I’m not a photographer. My most viewed item is the playtime tunic and leggings, photo taken at night and indoors. And it really makes me…[Read more]

I have your lace to post (blush) I will whack some needles from Spotlight in there for you.

If it is any help, I didn’t cut my bias leg piece until I had sewed and gathered the legs, when I was checking.

I made another two Hopscotch’s, one more dress and a tee. I cut a Hopscotch skirt/Tea Party dress combo from some very soft linen/cotton fabric.

My Lisette Diplomat Tunic was the most viewed/favorited flickr photo for me. I’m pretty sure that was due to Explore. It’s such a dorky photo of me!lol My top 9 “interesting” photos on flickr are all Oliver + S (and 1 Lisette). The ruffle Class Picnic shorts and School Days raincoats are some of my personal favorites and they were #1 and #3…[Read more]

Bumping this one as I am having the same trouble, I can’t find the numbers anywhere on the 2t-5 sheet. Does anyone know where they are?

That was a great metaphor Sarvi! I am just excited she even mentioned it, I can wait patiently (sort of, haha).

My apologies, maybe a more computer literate person (than me) will be able to help then.

Oh Liesl, please please keep that promise. I have always wanted to tackle a blazer. Just with your instructions.

I bet there are a lot of existing projects on the tracks already, so I’ve found myself a nice comfy seat on the Blazer Train, now there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, to keep the metaphor consistent for once in my life.

Uh oh… Liesl can’t back down now! LOL

I stopped sewing with other patterns. I just can’t hack the missing instructions or the poor finishes. I also prefer the clean lines of O+S.

@Cat75, get yourself a copy of the A-Z of Embroidery stitches. It will teach you pretty much everything you could ever want to know. The written instructions and pictures are brilliant. http://www.amazon.com/A-Z-Embroidery-Stitches-Sue-Gardner/dp/0957715986

The rest of the books in the series are really good.

Nicole is by far the winner;) It is a beautiful dress and shot. I have seen it on Pinterest many times, too.

The Ice Cream does sew up well in wool.

I made two more Hopscotch dresses for my baby girl today.
