I have the two big kids at home unwell so not much is happening in the sewing room at present. Its a shame because I signed up for kcw and it starts today!

I ended up cutting two more parachute polos out yesterday instead of the intended drafting of above said patterns. I hope to include these in the projects intended for thos week.

Oh fencing! My eldest wants to learn but we live in the sticks and there is no instruction anywhere!

I am almost complete with the parachute polo. Today is perfect sewing weather (raining outside) so I intend to settle in for the day but probably not sew, just tidy up a bit and cut things instead.

I need to look at a possible rearrangement of my…[Read more]

Oh gosh that new baby is darling! I love his sweet little knit outfit.

Onto my second Swingset skirt 🙂 Such A great pattern and the perfect use for a number of semi sheer fabrics in my stash. I’m seriously considering getting it in the small size as well to use up some smaller pieces of fabric for baby gifts.

Well I started on the parachute polo today. I hd to cut a second front because it seems I don’t know my right from my left! Fortunately I got it correct second time around. I am now up to stitching the sleeves, after spending time hand basting. I find that interlock can be a bit of a beast and my machine likes to eat it!

Oh both options seem pleasing! I was thinking of drafting the butterfly skirt myself tonight but ended up hand basting the sleeves to the parachute polo instead.

Good to hear it was as simple as a new lens script Nicole.

Thank you @justsewit , a new lens prescription and the advice to keep an eye on her. No drops today but I can understand your little mans reluctance, the Twins said they do sting a bit.

Hope it was that simple Nicole! My kids were under opthamologist care until last year. The girls at the optometrist I go to are hoping Chloe won’t need a referral too! So far so good but you never know. She would have to have drops when she visits doesn’t she? I had to hold Noah down for them along with two other adults he hated them that…[Read more]

I made my fist Swing Set skirt today. WOW! I love this skirt. Twirly, girly, only 4 pattern pieces and I added a shirred waist so I didn’t have to thread all the elastic. I can see myself making lots more 🙂
