Wow @needlewoman you will be busy.

I finished my shirt but I am unhappy with the collar, completely my fault, I should have muslined just the collar.

In a nutshell, I swopped the collar and made it too long and the collar stand ate it! I have not tried it on yet… too nervous. I hope it looks okay, I really want to wear it to my son’s party.

I made my daughter some yoga pants with a ribbing waist and I did have to go back and add elastic
I unpicked a wee bit of the seam, threaded it through and then hand sewed it up again.

They are lovely, I *wish* I was a 4….

My husband is pretty chunky and I make this shirt for him
http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/jedediah-for-jed.html I do add length and last time I shortened the ‘tails’.

I just finished this shirt for him it has a two piece collar and sleeve placket.

I have seen it listed on eBay and Esty. The oversized 80’s look…[Read more]

How about cutting a seam in the Hopscotch centre sleeve and adding the flowing fabric to that?

I would pre-wash in the machine, with a approved wool wash. I use Softly in AUS.
I would treat both fabrics the same as they will be laundered together once it is made.

I would never ever tumble dry wool, some girls do though, Do you have a trampoline? They are awesome to dry wool on.

If you are super nervous, wash a swatch first. Wool is…[Read more]

Birthday shirt sewn, thanks to all the lovely ladies on Instagram for their help with button/thread choice.
We went with red thread, dark buttons, two token red buttonholes on a tan and white striped shirt.

Onto my shirt, a blue and white gingham.

Anyone with catering experience, may you check out my post in the baking thread?
Thank you!

I finished Jed’s polo and should be making him one more garment… but as Hugo’s 18th is looming I have queue jumped the sewing rota and cut him another pair of Jedediah trousers and an Aime Comme Marie Mister shirt and me a pair of Ginger jeans and an Aime Comme Marie Madame shirt for me!

I rarely have this much cut waiting to be sewn, it feels…[Read more]

I have made several and the lining doesn’t show.
Perhaps roll your seam slightly inwards when pressing to be on the safe side.

Susan, I have some piccies of the yoke here as well as a nifty treatment for the collar to get it to sit like a two piece.

The Jedediah are seriously nice Rebecca http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2015/08/jedediah-baby.html

I also like this KwikSew pattern http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/jeans-for-hugo.html

I love this shirt http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2014/05/shirt.html

Thank you Heidi, you are kind.

There are some good seams to take it in by @vothgirl. A little from each would give you the best result.
