That would work fine with cotton webbing, ribbon may be a bit flimsy.

A neighbour dropped me off a bag of lemons this morning so I made this for supper http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/20191/lemon+delicious#comments

I doubled the recipe but reduced the sugar by 1/3, still fantastic.
I did add an extra 1/3 cup of lemon juice too.

I am open to any flavour @Reeni, just after a great tasting cake that will freeze.
You have been so helpful

Just a few questions…. cake flour, is that Self Raising flour?
Do you have a good recipe for Swiss meringue icing? I could Google one but I love tried and true recipes.

Thank you again!

@Reeni, thank you!!!

Do you mean attendance or weighing scales? I have kitchen scales and my 1960 Sunbeam mixer 🙂

I am waiting on my new stove (happy dance) and my existing free standing oven is being moved out to the shed as a warmer/hotplate. It is gas and quite large but the door seals have gone so not so good for baking.

I would love your…[Read more]

Awesome, thank you!
My new stove is being shipped and my children are pretty happy about the testing that will take place.

Any more? Savoury or sweet.
Nicole replied to the topic Jacket questions–sizing, underlining in the forum oliver + s: school days 10 years ago

My children are on the small side so take my two cents with a grain of salt!

My solid 14 month old is wearing the size 6-12 months with one fold of the sleeves.

Here is the 12-18 month on my older daughter, similar age https://www.flickr.com/photos/motherof5/4815131108/in/album-72157625184981969/

Wow @needlewoman you will be busy.

I finished my shirt but I am unhappy with the collar, completely my fault, I should have muslined just the collar.

In a nutshell, I swopped the collar and made it too long and the collar stand ate it! I have not tried it on yet… too nervous. I hope it looks okay, I really want to wear it to my son’s party.

Nicole replied to the topic Ribbing for waistband? in the forum oliver + s: sunny day shorts 10 years ago

I made my daughter some yoga pants with a ribbing waist and I did have to go back and add elastic
I unpicked a wee bit of the seam, threaded it through and then hand sewed it up again.
