Bahahaha😂

Oh @thejennigirl😂 That sounds all too familiar. I have a confession to make! I ran off with my daughter’s sewing scissors because they were sharper than mine – and she hasn’t noticed yet😉😱

There is one little problem though with “Pheobe” – she has measurements that would accomodate a size that Chloë would wear but she is long. She is actually the size for a 3 year old so I am thinking of sneaking a little one into the mix just so I can play dress up with a life sized doll that doesn’t wriggle and get dirty before the photos are…[Read more]

@housecall, if I may be so bold, here is a tute http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/the-garden-party-tutorial-part-one.html

Unless your ribbon is very firm I would be inclined to sew it on top rather then replace the yoke and waistband.

*Love* this pattern, have fun.

OH wow! Your own child mannequin!
It’s great to hear Noah has had a good year 🙂
Although I’m not sewing I’m practising my knitting. I’m learning the continental method and it seems to work much better for me than the regular method.

It would depend on how wide your ribbon is and the look you are going for. And is the contrast trim pattern piece straight? If it is then you should be fine substituting the ribbon.

That sounds very painful Heidi! Just rest up and make sure you are on the mend. Take care of the injury and hopefully you can trace patterns later in the week. Do you have anything to rub on the site to ease the pain?

We are finding that broken bones are painful when they heel (So I don’t know how you would manage with your injury). Murray has…[Read more]

I don’t think I’ll be sewing for a week or so 🙁 I’ve managed to pull something in my hip on our Christmas camping trip and am on rest and crutches. Maybe later in the week I’ll be able to sit at the table and trace patterns.

I’ve been dreaming about an Oliver and S Moto jacket!

Well, the sewing drought is now over (for now). I have just been spending some time this morning, sewing the little blue hopscotch skirt in size 12-18 months for Chloë. I started this before Murray’s accident so it has been waiting on the sewing table for much longer than the usual length of time.

I am hoping to sew the white hide and seek tunic…[Read more]

How did you go Rosemary? Are you on your way again?

My pleasure, @ellenmcm was the hero here!
Happy sewing.
