I just cut out another one of these for myself, and I lengthened it by a bit for winter. To do this, you’ll simply splice the pattern at the lengthen-shorten line and add the desired amount of length at that spot. Be sure to lengthen all the relevant pieces by the same amount (don’t forget the facing!), and keep the grain line matched up as you…[Read more]

Thank you @justsewit and @lightningmcstitch, I thought it was the piano?

I love school hols. No packed lunches but the food! Three loaves of bread yesterday and one child wasn’t home!

You made slippers @roundtheworldgirl? Wow, did you blog them?

I have not lengthened this skirt @ginny3w but I lengthen one similar for my girls.

I cut and added length at the hip.

I would caution adding too much length as I think it would spoil the line of the skirt.
Perhaps think about your styling? Black opaque tights are great if you are concerned about flashing your knickers.

@sanitystitches I haven’t but I did talk someone through it (can’t remember who though, sorry).
We decided it would be best to cut and add length at about 4 inches from the cuff to keep the nice shape of the sleeve.
It has a bit of a bias thing going on so it may need trying and tweaking before you hem it.

I hope that helps.

Thank you for the back up @enbee 🙂
@gretam it is my absolute pleasure.

I have two bags to make over the school hol’s. I will be in touch, Heidi, I am sure.

I have finished Matilda’s turn on the rota and I am on to Lidia. First up, a Sketchbook shirt with the Mandarin collar in Liberty.

I hope Murray is recovering @justsewit.

The school year has finished for us. We had our Presentation Night, Thursday night and it was a huge success.

Matilda was deliciously bouncy, dancing in her classes Beach Boy medley. Her neon Class Picnic set was just the job.

It is on it’s way to the USA!

I hope he recovers quickly Tamara.

I am sure the community will rally around you. When my husband nearly severed his hand with a chain saw we had a rota of community support, community organised. There was food, cut wood and offers of drives to to city (I am not a confident driver)
Country towns have great spirit.

That said, what a busy time of…[Read more]
