Oh, and Michael Levine is in my neck of the woods. I’ll have a peek next time I’m there.

Christmas dress is all sketched out! Next to write diwny page numbers I will need. This week I will give the basic dress a test go for size and fit. Hopefully I can start on this one by mid next month!

Oh, this is amazing! Thank you so much, @timpson! @Robin, if you have a chance to look for it, I’m very interested in it. I’ve been told it’s a knit, but it doesn’t really look like it in the photo, does it?

Liesl, Fabricana is in my neck of the woods. I can check out the one in Coquitlam and Richmond if you would like.

The Building Block T-Shirt Book (not real) is my pet project 😅
I can’t wait to see what I can take from the dress book and do with a School Bus tee.
Here’s a t-shirt modification that never made it to the Oliver + S blog as a tutorial, for reasons that are now obvious!

I’m glad to hear that, @thesimpson5! I’m hoping that we’ll be able to make an announcement about a women’s book very soon. Keep your fingers crossed!

I’m so glad to hear you say that, @mama_knowles! @lightningmcstitch, I hope yours arrives soon. xo

My daughter is already jumping in on the fun too with her ideas. I have some great ideas for my boys too!! This book is even better than I imagined it would be. Thank you so much for all your hard work that went into this Liesl!

I’ve lost count of how many instagram posts I’ve seen with photos of newly delivered books. 🙂
Postage to here will be much slower but I’m still excited!

I’m so glad you’re all excited about this! We’re going to have a lot of fun with it, I promise.

My husband has learnt his line.
I say “check out this invisible zip”
He says “what zip?”
Every time.

He delivers it in such a deadpan, I know my role here, kind of way.
I’ll have to sew an exposed zipper one day and catch him out!

Well as of yesterday I was back to sewing a bit. I am so close to finishing up Caspian’s quilt top and really want to see it finished too. Poor fellow has four more he is awaiting for mommy to finish as well. Two are sail boats which are so quick to sew and the other sketchbook which are quick as well.i plan on layering all of his sketchbook…[Read more]

I opened my email up this morning to a wonderful surprise of a copy of this book is only one post office stop away from our town!! Now I am too excited to go back to sleep!! This is the best news I have received in a while!!

Thanks, @Tineke! That’s a great start. I appreciate your help and I’ll let you know if I locate it.

Yep, the City Stroll skirt.
The Everyday Skirt is fuller and therefore more fabric hungry.

How long until pay day, Heidi? Because I’d hate for you to miss out on the Facebook group. We’ll be doing lots here and on the blog, too, but the live stuff works best on FB.

I’ve done it, too. I think you might be able to squeeze it in if you’re determined!

You should try it @enbee you might be surprised. This is a 1m cut and as you can see it wasn’t even square.
