Me too!

I even edge stitch the 2+2 skirt pleats.

I have just finished the hems of three lullaby layette shirts. Just have to apply poppers and then take photos.

Next is… Whatever I pick out of the tray. Probably some very cute looking linen layette pants.

If I get the date we want, it mean there will be four weeks to go.

It is lovely. You drafted the collar’s curves perfectly!

Just got home… Sorry the shorts aren’t behaving Heidi. I haven’t tried the colette patterns yet even though I have some – not the shorts though so sorry I am not of use there.

I’m thrilled! I popped into the new/ replacement craft shop in Geraldton and discovered they sell Rasant thread! That means I don’t have to get them from Perth! And they…[Read more]

I see your point on all things there cybele. There is no point in having Christmas shirts here because it is too jolly hot half the time to wear anything other than bathers and go under the sprinkler. The winter theme sounds much better as then it can last for three months not three days!

I am away from the sewing machine at the moment but when I…[Read more]

Hope you enjoy yourselves at the wedding Nicole and that Tildy makes a lovely last minute flowergirl (bit of a treat I shouldn’t wonder). As for the Bobby, better a bobby than a snake but then do snakes eat dog biscuits?

We have one hiding in the little shed outside the house gate at the moment. Our worker “Flo” found it when getting something…[Read more]

When I venture in the scary world (for me) of bag making, I use the cheap stiff iron on interfacing.
Shiny on one side, a bit furry on the other.

We are off to a wedding and Tildy is a lat minute flower girl.
My sister knew she would be needed last night but she only asked this morning as she knew I would sit up all night sewing something 😉

I would be hesitant to add too much length, i think it may spoil the elegant line.
Hugo is wearing his dress waistcoat today (in 43 d heat)! and I notice it is quite high at the back and not long at the front.

Yep! That’s what I would do. Surely you would only need to add one more on?

Becky, I just lengthened the existing sleeves, tapering them a bit at the bottom since my daughter is very thin. Glad to be of service!

I hope you feel much better soon Heidi. I was not in a good way on Wednesday and spent the day lying down – the world was spinning way too fast amongst other things.

I spent the morning and part of after lunch cutting things out. I have two pairs of Layette pants and three layette shirts ready to go in the pile. I want to break out the bubble…[Read more]
