Hallo April!

I am a bit tired today,( Trixie had jabs yesterday and didn’t sleep that well last night) but if I link to my blog post http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/the-garden-party-tutorial-part-one.html maybe you can see the notches in that?

I am sorry not to be more help….. I am a wee bit fuzzy headed today.

I buy Tefal, nice and hot and lots of steam.
Fairly tough too, my current one has survived being knocked over by a football in flight!

I only once tried to cut and use the PDF pattern piece. It was not successful. Too stiff and ultimately inaccurate. I glue my pattern sheet together, fold it like a commercial pattern sheet (sort of concertina it) and store it in a big ziplock bag. I laminate the colour pages and put them at the front and back of the bag. The instructions are…[Read more]

Thank you Todd.

By all means, start a new thread if you are in a hurry. I usually resort to Google to find an old thread.

nothing at the moment as preparations for Easter (we celebrated last week) and my late-night sewing tuckered me out. Luckily the insomnia has abated a bit. I signed up for KCWC (next week!) despite my better judgment. My goal is to cut out and sew another Cosi swimsuit for my oldest during that week. The girls have also expressed interest in…[Read more]

Linda, I used the bubble dress in the smallest size for my baby and when she was a newborn it came way past her knees – more towards her ankles actually- she was only 50cm at birth, if this gives you an indication of length.

I love school holidays also. It means not having to travel in to town everyday. We have been having a few issues with our bus driver and so I have resorted to taking the kids to school.

We’re starting a new round of work to do performance testing and tweaking of the site to address some of these issues with load time. I’m hoping you’ll all see performance improvements over coming weeks as we make some changes behind the scenes.

Yes, @motherof5, the way the forums work is that if you are not logged in you get a cached version of…[Read more]

I have finished four of the nurses capes but they are quite small so I have decided to make matrons using the LTTS cape pattern in red wool.

I noticed today I see more up to date posts when I am logged in.

My absolute pleasure @Linda.
