This is also not a ‘broken’ but a usability question — would it be possible to modify the @ function so it uses the screen name rather than the profile name?

I had originally written it out as @Nicole which is how her name appears when I’m reading through the thread, but…[Read more]

@motherof5 That is so funny about the steel wool! I would love to be part of a group like that. In junior high school (about age 12-14) that was the only class I did well in. Still love the smell of sawdust and the clang of tools.
@rhythmtyagi Wow, you must be so proud! I could hardly the back of your work from the front. And I bet it’s not only…[Read more]

Ok, so in my head I’ve started shopping for blazer fabric. Wool for the first one, some corduroy, velvet, denim, seersucker, tweed with leather patches… It’s going to be fun.

It’s funny isn’t it Tamara? I couldn’t have children, (too many fibroids, no where for an egg to implant) somehow got pregnant, had far too many complications, was told I miscarried, delivered a healthy baby girl and marvelled at the wonder of it all. And yet when the doctor told me not to have more children I was devastated. Which seems…[Read more]

Oh, you’re all so lovely. Thank you. It means a lot to me that you say this.
And yes, I think maybe it’s time to tackle that blazer you’ve all been requesting for such a long time now. I’ll see what I can do between the other projects I’ve got going on!

I would love to join a sewing group. I used to be in a furniture restoration group, we had a blast, scrubbing away with our steel wool.
Every now and then you would drop your steel wool in your wine instead of the metho. -

Ooh, that yarn is luscious!
I wish we all lived close enough for a stitch & word that rhymes with stitch. I have two ‘students’ right now (friends I’m helping with little things, really, they’re teaching themselves) and it’s so much fun to see somebody face light up when something clicks for them.
Reading is usually the best way for me to…[Read more]

I am slightly nervous to share our tea tonight as it is very much ‘nursery nourishment’ but my children love it, so I shall.
Curry in a hurry
Brown two large chopped onions in some oil, stirring occasionally.
Put water on to boil a dozen eggs. Hard boil, chill, peel and chop up, set aside.While the onion wass cooking I diced a cold cooked…[Read more]

Thankyou Jenny for your support and for sharing your story, i don’t feel so alone now.

Nicole replied to the topic Oliver + S appreciation in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago
I completely agree Sarvi.
I made a Ice Cream dress for Tildy, for Christmas, and I added length. I *almost* added too much and spoilt the line.
I definitely made the pockets too low.I can sew, but pattern drafting is way way out of my league. I will leave that to Liesl.
A blazer, what a good idea 😉
