I finished by husbands long waited Liberty shirt, I have only had the fabric for two years. ๐
I have moved on to a trusty KwikSew polo top for him, in a vibrant green/pink stripe.

Nicole replied to the topic Used shoes — buying, selling, donating in the forum off topic 9 years ago
I happily buy ‘good’ second hand shoes for my girls as they have generally been worn only lightly and the previous owner has not changed the foot bed of the shoe. I have also purchased second hand Saltwater sandals and let my girls wear them in the sea and then walk around until they are dry so they soften and shape to their foot.
Older shoes I…[Read more]

@katybellabug it is way too fast ๐
I finished the Lisette Attache peplum top in neoprene (scuba knit) for Elsa.
It was a great fabric to sew but not fun to unpick, the stitches ‘sunk in’. I did make a calico muslin first and also did the petite adjustment and scooped out the neck…[Read more] -

Nicole replied to the topic Salt water sandals – your thoughts? in the forum off topic 9 years ago
As someone who spends a lot of money on children’s shoes I feel qualified to answer ๐
They are awesome!
My American galpals put me on to them. I can buy them new for about $70 AUS, which is half the cost of the Gavarlin shoes I was sending them to school in and they last so well.They don’t scuff, we clean them at night with a wet one ( inside…[Read more]

Some great ideas here!
A ‘fun’ dessert I make for parties is ‘frogs in mud puddles’
Small cups half filled with chocolate custard with plump greens grape ‘frogs’ hiding in it.
Serve with a wee spoon.

Todd Gibson replied to the topic Any idea when the new patterns are being releasedโฆ? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 9 years ago
Sorry to those of you waiting but it probably won’t be until next week. Once we hand things off to the printer we lose a lot of control of the timetable and this round things are taking longer than usual.

I saw them on instagram @katybellabug, so sweet!
I finished Jed’s jeans, super heavy denim but they should wear well. I used some scraps from his Liberty shirt to make the pocket bags and line the back yoke.
Next up, a muslin of the Lisette Attache peplum top for Elsa’s 16th birthday sew.

That grey cord is yummy!
Liesl recommended reversing the nap of the cord for a really lush look, I always do that now and it does look wonderful.I crazy love that lining fabric. If you are worried you will be too warm (which I doubt, in Canada brrr) you could line the sleeves with the silk stuff and use a cotton or lawn for the body or just the back?
