A good recommendation for velcro placement.

I managed to sew on the sleeve facings this morning and also the buttons on the sailboat pants. Chloë wore her chevron playtime tunic and sailboat skirt to town shopping but got soaked with her attempts to drink water from the sippy cup. So of course I had the hopscotch top and sailboat pants ready to go. Both sets of clothes are now filthy and…[Read more]

They both sound awesome @dubhels2003. I have decided to wait to make the swingset skirt for a little while until the toddler is really toddler-ing😜. The swingset top though is on the the to do list as it is going to get fiery again up here. We are enjoying three cool (for us) days and the sewing machines are still taking up the dining table.

Thanks for the tips, folks, I’m mulling it all over.

All I can say is enjoy the long sewing stints Heidi. It will be a fair while before I can indulge in all day sewing again.

Today thought, I managed to work on the playtime dress I had cut out in a piece of pink and white chevron knit left over from the playtime dress I made Imogen when the pattern was newly released. She still wears hers but it…[Read more]

I’m enjoying having long days to sew at the moment. I made my first go of M7254, it was a success 🙂 I will still need to make a few tweaks but I’m very happy with the overall fit.
I’m making another messenger bag, last much I did some curved improvised patchwork to make an interesting background a for my applique BB8 droid 🙂

She looks so elegant! What a great idea 🙂

Oh no nothing wrong there just general busyness. We had a friend come and help Murray with a mill (and do some sheep) so I had this as a delay, not to mention the other runnings of the day. I don’t usually sew in the dining room so Chloë has free reign to the power cables. I actually reduced the sewing time yesterday due to the safety issue – my…[Read more]

What about sewing the velcro through both layers and adding some nice buttons to hide the stitching? Giving the look of a button front jacket.

That’s sad Tamara 🙁 I hope it was general busyness not something going very wrong.
I finished up the jacket i was making with all its alterations. McCalls M7254,http://sewing.patternreview.com/Patterns/74711
Despite it saying no changes above the waist I successfully did a FBA and added length 🙂 I would still like to make some tweaks but the…[Read more]

A very cute little sailboat skirt in khaki drill sits on my dining room table. Meanwhile the hopscotch top is still in pieces😕
