Oh a wedding is so exciting! How fun and thankyou for telling us all about the big news! My hubby rang my parents who were out to “ask” if he could marry me! He was so nervous he just blurted out over the phone “can I please marry your daughter?” To which the reply was “which one?” Because I have a sister you see but of course they knew which one…[Read more]

They have programs like this available to school children at Perth Zoo during the summer school holidays. You have to book well in advance though.

It sounds like Elsa had a rewarding experience Nicole.

I am enjoying my self imposed blindness to the state of my house and having a long weekend of sewing bliss! Who cares? it will be here Tuesday!

Anyway, I have successfully completed the hopscotch dresses and promptly dressed Chloe in the pink striped one with a freshly sewn pair of pink leggings (playtime) after she woke from her morning…[Read more]

Heidi did you recieve an email regarding some sort of bungle with one of the Colette patterns? A scam or something? I didn’t read it properly because time has been lacking of late.

On my sewing table are still the hopscotch dresses still to be hemmed and also some pairs of playtime leggings, mostly in different shade of pink because I want to…[Read more]

Congratulations Audrey.:)

Just picked up my daughter, Elsa, (15) from work experience at an animal reserve.

She handled everything from pythons to possums and even minded a monkey!

Then perhaps consider a cloth with some stretch.
I made a maternity version in wool spandex and it gave me quite a bit of ease.

(I would post a link but I am worried the whole photo would appear and no one needs to see that huge belly here)

Don’t you love when the fabric gets to decide?

After a busy few days I am still yet to complete the hopscotch dresses. Just the hems to do though.

I pulled out my basket of knit remnants and have been fishing through sorting them out by colour. It is the project for the long weekend, to try and use up as much of it as I can with the playtime…[Read more]

That sounds so pretty Lisa

I was in Spotlight yesterday @Wagyu Burger amd couldn’t even get the pram down the aisle it was that junked up with stuff! I have already made one complaint about it. It doesn’t look good to have that much stock crammed into a tiny space because as you say, it can’t be seen! Besides it looks untidy also.

I didn’t get to see any lawn but will have…[Read more]

Can’t wait to see you Sarvi! Holler if you need anything when you arrive, and have a great trip!

No tips but I wish I was coming to carry your bags.

May I suggest using wondertape. I have had this stuff in my stash for a while and never thought to use it until last night whilst sewing the knits. It was an absolute godsend because it stuck the two pueces together while stabilising it so tge fabric didn’t stretch or anything. I used the 1/4 inch width but I think you can get it wider.
