Cooking and Baking 10 years agoForty-five degrees Celsius?!? Is that for real? If it’s that hot outside, you wouldn’t need to cook the Bolognese on the stove. Just throw all the raw ingredients in a pot in the morning and set it outside in the sun for the day. By the time the sun goes down at night, you’ll have a finished sauce waiting for you!
Stay cool.

Cooking and Baking 10 years agoHere’s a little Liesl + Co. secret. I do all the company’s cooking.
One of the things I like to do on days when I can work from home (which is most days now in Madrid) is make a good Bolognese sauce. I spent today making my famous “All Day Bolognese,” and @admin asked me for my recipe.
I never use recipes; I cook by feel. So I wrote up for him…[Read more]

@with-love-heidi Yes!
Black coated denim, navy and light blue. Jeans and shirts is a pretty standard uniform for me. -

Hi @sallycsklarsky, I have been mulling this over for a few days now.
May I point out my tute https://www.pinterest.com/pin/73676143876173067/ ? Have a look at that and I will come back and add how I think a lining may work.
Sorry not to be more help.

Ack, that’s the worst! I narrowly squeezed out my Lisette pjs from the Liberty I purchased before the pattern was finished, and I was sweating that it wouldn’t work out. I spent more time arranging pattern pieces in create ways than I did cutting and sewing, I think!

@dubhels2003 , did you buy some after your meeting?
I just purchased some black coated denim (not from there, I wish) and I am itching for it to be my turn on the #sewingrota.

I am sorry for your loss @thejennigirl.

I am so pleased Shelley. I have made that size before and it worked so I assumed your fabric must have stretched.
I just need to sew the button hole on Elsa’s blazer and it is done!
Next, a pair of navy Deer and Doe shorts for school.
