Nicole replied to the topic Needle for woven and knit together? in the forum oliver + s: parachute polo + sweatpants 9 years ago

I think your fabric choice will be your deciding factor here. If you use a soft draping fabric, the fullness will be lovely.

@jesims, I alter a lot of ‘Light in the Box’ bridesmaid dresses and this is what works for me.
Place the dress on and pin out the excess in long French darts, take of the dress and tailors chalk the edges of the pinned section on the inside. Baste the darts in and try on again.
This can be very effective and means you have not cut away any…[Read more]

@dubhels2003 Helena, my three older kids all had the chicken pox about 16 months ago; my son was only a year old at the time. He had a very mild case – and in general I have heard that the younger ones do better. He was just a little cranky, ran a fever for a day or two, and didn’t seem to be bothered by the actual pox very much. My…[Read more]

@dubhels2003 I am sorry for her. I can remember Chicken Pox and bathing with a calico sachet of oats in the water.
I am heading to the city so shall have good internet for the day but not for a fun reason. Lidia (11) is having vision problems and I ranG her ophthalmologist and he wanted to see her ASAP.
Fingers crossed it is just a lens adjustment. - Load More
