It’s a very fun print you’ve chosen @madtownmama😄 They both look great!
I am still tracing patterns. I got out of bed to feed the baby this morning, thinking it was 5.30am but it was only 2.50am – must’ve had a power failure during the night. Anyway, I got up,mfeeling awake and cut out the traced patterns I had done yesterday so all I have to do…[Read more]

Generally if the curved hem is slight you shouldn’t have a problem. As demonstrated by @juliamom2009!

It can be very deceptive when the hem of the dress skirt is curved but honestly it will look fantastic once it is done. I have a bubble dress in a border print waiting it’s turn (when the white thread is in the machine again) and I used a border on a recent playdate dress. But the above picture is all you need to persuade you to go for it.

I whipped up a music class skirt in denim during morning nap time the other day. The elastic needs tightening but it looks soooo cute! I do love that pattern alot.
Today its all about tracing the required patterns for skirts, tops, jeans etc. The jalie shirt was a big hit so I am anticipating the arrival of my package of fabric to replenish the…[Read more]

I’ve always waxed afterward so it doesn’t clog up the machine. I know someone who sews with waxed canvas all the time and it does tend to make your machine a bit dirty, so if you wax beforehand be sure to use a press cloth and clean your machine well afterwards!

Tamara replied to the topic Has anyone paired the B6183 top with the Everyday Skirt? in the forum liesl + co: everyday skirt 8 years ago
@lotuspeachblog I love the colour blocking idea for the top. I was just wondering how you were planning to block the top? There are many ways you coukd do it, given the pieces you have to work with.
I think if you used just the plain fabrics up the top and the floral for the skirt, it would work a treat.
Colour blocking can work your figure to…[Read more]

We have just returned from a quick trip to the city for yet another review of Murray’s injuries. Good news!! We are now down to three monthly visits and the humerous is healing up which means we can step up the physio and he can work with it a little more.
Not so good news was that his movement hasn’t really improved a huge deal and he has been…[Read more]

Lovely fabric @lotuspeachblog
Have you started? I think the top could look stunning colour blocked, particularly if you used darker colours to your advantage. I, personally, wouldn’t mix plains with florals in a top, I would make the top or skirt from the patterned but that is purely personal and as I wear mainly black, grey or navy I am probably…[Read more]

Up to the waist band on some denim/wool jeans (vintage KwikSew) for my son, Hugo (18). Just as well I fitted the back seam as they were a bit toight.
Thank you Big4 big seam allowance 🙂
