Long sleeve faux wrap dress, warm tights, appropriatxe shoes (closed with appropriate heel or some lovely knee high boots). Over this I would add a attention grabbing cardigan or wrap/scarf.
Personally it would be a chocholate brown knit faux wrap dress, stretch velvet would be georgeous. Brown tights, knee high boots and a stunning Swoon Neck…[Read more]

I had a sewing win the other night. I managed to make a lullaby bodysuit and pants in one go.

We have a skirt pattern coming out for Liesl and Co this spring that takes just a yard of fabric. It would be really cute in velvet, actually, if you can stand to wait until it’s finally released! It will be probably two months yet…

Jay I have no words of wisdom to add on the whole driving on the other side of the road thing as I have never done it! But I should think it will be a really great experience to be equipped with the knowledge of knowing how!

What do you do regarding obtaining an international driver’s license anyway? My nephew has just told us he applied for and…[Read more]

I’m back to working on the purple school days coat. It’s going to be very warm and cosy, courduroy, interlined with think fleece and a satin lining!

Welcome, Renee! I believe my grandma made most of her family’s clothes on one of those, and the motion was very hypnotic.

Don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of driving soon. I’m told that it’s the right turns that are trickiest, my friends who made the switch kept hitting the curb at first.

I’ve been having a lot of fun trying to sew as much as I can from my stash while I save up a bit for a trip to a friend’s wedding. Lodging in NY is just so expensive! And a chef…[Read more]

I’ve finished up the first of four gifts, and the next two should be pretty quick sews. I’m doing a lot of swatching for the fourth since I want to incorporate a few different small details I’ve been really liking.

Good thinking Heidi 🙂
I don’t have any fleece (very very limited stash of just the fabric I am planning to use very soon). If we go out I may get some. I’m still not driving though – I haven’t been brave enough to try driving on the wrong side of the car/road yet.

How lovely that Chloe is bringing back all the lovely baby-ness to your house…[Read more]

I have an old treadle in my sitting room, I keep a block of wood under the foot pedal to stop the babies pinching their fingers. 🙂

Got to make the 3-6 month size in the lullaby layette asap! Only 8 weeks old and bursting out of them already. Too late! Baby girl is summoning!
