Thanks @ann-maree for the great tip, I visited yesterday and there was a sale, too, got some wonderful fabrics at great prices!

@lightningmcstitch she does! Modelled pics hopefully this week with of course her neon pink shoes! Thank goodness I went monochrome for this one but I hope to get another made in matching neon pink denim – it is the flavour of the moment 😜!

Alas I had no hands for much of today so tomorrow is going to be frantically busy!

I’ll bet she looks great in that skirt Tamara.

Last night I made the Lisette 6182 top in z rayon challis and I’ve worn it all day today and love it. I’m also appreciating my lack of boobage. No bust, no alterations, no muslin, just sew! I’ll make the skirt next and then get some pictures.

We have a printer paper thief in our house and I stole it back to print out the men’s metro tshirt! Unfortunately I was found out and it was nabbed again! But thankfully the pattern is printed so I can (at last) put it together. But only when I have my hands free from picking up the baby who (sob) wants to stand up😕. It’s just going…[Read more]

There are some good seams to take it in by @vothgirl. A little from each would give you the best result.

@sarvi, I would love that!

I finished by husbands long waited Liberty shirt, I have only had the fabric for two years. 🙂

I have moved on to a trusty KwikSew polo top for him, in a vibrant green/pink stripe.

Just completed a city stroll wrap skirt for my teen in a size 10! Measured three times and for some reason she didn’t fit the 8😐. Anyway, this one fits well.

I have a women’s metro t shirt cut in a size small to sew next followed by a men’s metro and a pair of short for my ten year old.

It’s like grown up Sunday Brunch! I can see why you’d want another. No help with a pattern sorry, but I’ll bet there’s one out there that’s similar enough.
Good luck

I would think so, but I’m not an expert fitter — @motherof5?

Ooh, great tip! That’s close to me, will be paying a visit.

@vothgirl ? 👆

I love the fact you did a rerelease. Considering what was going on behind the scenes with a move to different country, I can understand it might have been a tiny sanity saver. I am looking forward to the reveal of the next project though – that sounds very exciting!

I am also thrilled you decided to go to a 14 with this skirt. It means that when…[Read more]

I thought I had step by step photos of this, but can’t seem to find them. I think Patricia (whose screen name I’ve forgotten, sorry!) has a pic of the Cinema side panel pattern piece, where the adjustment happens, slashed and spread.

Hi @hazel , I did a FBA on the Late Lunch tunic, there a some pics here http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2014/09/fba-all-way.html which may help you visualise the adjustment to the Cinema dress.

Sorry not to be more help.
