@sahmcolorado I think I will be doing this for my oldest girl too! She still takes a 2 or 3 width in the dress patterns but she needs 6 for length.

Are you noting down all your interesting pregnancy dreams Masha? I didn’t, but then I didn’t have them.

Just got a message that friends of ours have had baby number three last week and we missed the whole thing – was planning a hosptial visit but they apparently are now at home. Number three is a baby girl which is thrilling enough in itself. I…[Read more]

Todd Gibson replied to the topic spring 2015 patterns – when?? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

Sorry to keep you in suspense!

Everything is printed, and now it’s time for the process of marrying up the jobs from the different printers and getting them assembled. Then they need to ship back across the country and get warehoused before we can release them.

So it will probably be another couple weeks, but it could be sooner if everyone does…[Read more]
justsewit replied to the topic Help me enjoy knitting again in the forum Fiber Club! 10 years ago

Well I started the pattern part of the dress yesterday and after two rows have already stuffed it up. I “yarn forward” ed the wrong way! So I will start again I guess. For some reason I ended up with five stitches at the end instead of three so I will use something as counters when I cast on to make sure the number of stitches is correct. Then it…[Read more]

The latest O+S blog post said “in a week or two.” That’s all I know 🙂
roundtheworldgirl replied to the topic Help me enjoy knitting again in the forum Fiber Club! 10 years ago

Tamara, that is exciting – and the answer of course is, “it depends.” In my most prolific (pre-kids) knitting days I could finish a hat in two days, and an adult sweater in two weeks. But I spent hours per day doing it. Now it takes me forever to finish anything – I may knit up to an hour a day when I am very smitten with a project (but I’ve…[Read more]
justsewit replied to the topic Help me enjoy knitting again in the forum Fiber Club! 10 years ago

For someone who doesn’t usually knit and doesn’t consider herself a knitter, I have embarked on a project I hope to finish rather fast. Time will tell. But I have always wanted to have a knitted baby dress so I am making one for Chloe. I actually signed up to ravelry and that has inspired me to knit also. There is this beautiful dress I’d love to…[Read more]

I dreamt about the new O+S patterns last night. In my dream there were two of them and I was very excited but I cannot for the life of me remember what I dreamt they were … clearly sewing has been at the forefront of my thinking lately!

I did not know such a thing existed … and I now desperately want one!
Tamara replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

Today’s sewing consisted of sewing three Layette shirts in assembly line fashion. I currently have them in the hand sewing basket waiting for their neckbindings to be handstitched down.

I also managed to handsew the lining of the Cape Ann bubble and have also sewn the buttonholes. This is also in the handsewing basket waiting for buttons to go…[Read more]
