Reeni very clever of you. I used to teach a group of boys tap when I was still dancing. It worked the same way but my own lessons were the exchange. Love tap dancing!

This year creative projects include doing up the kids’ bedrooms – painting decorating in their style/preference.
Curtains for every window in the house!
Possibly a reno project but it depends on funds, there is a door in the sewing room that needs to be removed so that I can shift the wardrobe up a bit and put the doors on. We decorated the sewing…[Read more] -

What a huge effort, you are doing them a massive favour. How kind of you.

Much more relaxing then my threading method….which involves tweezers, me swearing a lot and the children advising each other to stay away from mum.

I had an annoying afternoon and thought I’d relax for a few minutes and watch a video on using my serger. This might have been … too relaxing.

Create, that is beautiful. I think I shall focus on sewing being more about creating, then working.

@vothgirl, Hugo has printed me up a ‘rota’ that everyone fills in. The Twins change their minds a lot before I get to them but that is have the fun. Once it is cut, that is it.
I finally finished my cousins dress. It is beautiful and if I have fitted the muslin correctly, should fit like a glove.
It was a lot of work though. Lots of pieces,…[Read more] -

Rubber backed curtain fabric with washers sewn in the hem makes a very effective block out. Often curtain making shops will have remnants.
@kgiff, you will be very popular with the school. I have 27 drawstring bags to sew for the 2/3’s. The teacher wants to sort the skipping ropes.

Have you tried the fold in half, fold in the edges to meet and fold press then topstitch, to make roulette?
Or use a similar colour in a lighter fabric. My hair ties did not work well.
I used webbing on this one http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2013/07/kindy-days.html
Good luck, I loved sewing this one.

I know you can purchase blackout fabric in white or black, and it’s designed to be durable and to really block out the light. If you use that, you could use almost anything on the “surface” (the side that shows) to make it pretty. I’m fairly certain it’s lightweight fabric and easy to work with. (Says the woman who never quite got around the…[Read more]

I’d actually like to make the top that goes with the girl friday culottes – eventually – thinking it would be great for nursing.

Thankyou everyone. I am hesitant to share my birth story like so many others have already. Why? Well put it this way I wouldn’t be one of those lucky ladies on one born every minute, I would be one of those people on a medical emergency program instead.
There were complications sewing me up! It was seriously touch and go there and the spinal was…[Read more]
