@thejennigirl what a pip! It is as much as saying wearing a tent will make you look like a million bucks!
I still have the blue dress on the table waiting for me to sew it. I have only just returned home and during the (long) trip home, I tallied up the sewing items that need to be made before we go (again) in a week’s time. I don’t think I will…[Read more]

I would do the size 0 based on their bust measurement. If you scroll down underneath the pictures of the pattern you will see the finished measurements given (under the fabric allowances). You will see that there is some 5.5 inches of extra measurement given for the bust alone. Basically it is a loose fitting dress so with this in mind, the hip…[Read more]

Looking forward to seeing your photos!
I’ve just traced and cut out the pattern for the birthday party dress, size 3. This is my first time using this pattern. I found some mustangs in mustard from cotton and steel in my stash which I plan to use for the dress with some matching navy. Fortunately I realized it was from a quilting friend it hasn’t…[Read more] -

@dubhels2003 do you really think I get alot done? Well probably for someone with three kids it is true but personally all my projects are in danger of ending up in the unfinished basket.
I didn’t get to the white hide and seek tunic or the other butterfly blouse so these will have to wait.
The comino cap dress (Kitschy coo) is literally a five…[Read more]

What about the Colette Moneta?https://www.colettepatterns.com/catalog/moneta
You might need to shorten the bodice but the main design elements are there. -

Oh I can so relate @thejennigirl. Imogen received a sewing machine from my mum for her birthday just gone and whilst she has dabbled, I was really hoping this time (and precious time that it is) would help her learn more, spend some valuable time with me and help her to take some ownership in what she wants to wear. Alas it has all fallen by the…[Read more]

Talk to me about sewing supplies and other things you’d like us to carry, will you? What would be most useful or inspiring to you? It doesn’t really make sense to us or to you to carry things that you can find everywhere else. Is there something you can’t find and want us to carry? Would you be interested in things that I love that you might not…[Read more]

I had a job and a half trying to get her to even look at the patterns. So much for a sewing mother daughter time also. She decided that it would be better if I made them! I think eventually we might use all of the ladies patterns Kitschy coo has available. I was actually a little surprised she didn’t choose the lady skater because of the dress I…[Read more]

I’ll be interested to hear how the Comino cap dress goes. Kitschy Coo’s Penny Pinafore is my goto patterns for tshirts and knit dresses for myself.
I’m still working on my BB8 messenger bag. I ended up doing some improvised curved piecing of denim for the main flap. I’m really liking how it looks 🙂 -
