@vothgirl with your knitting, they have been pieces haven’t they? So if they have (I know you had at least one) in essence, technically speaking you HAVE been sewing – just with wool and knitting and not in the conventional sense.

Thrilled to hear Ben is coming home – praying he gets home in time. It makes it all the more special for all of you.…[Read more]

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

@vothgirl ? 👆

@katybellabug it is way too fast 🙁

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]

@vothgirl Patricia, I’ve only just seen your hiking pics, that trip looks amazing, I’m very envious!

I have been having as many day trips as possible with my girls this summer, as I return to work full time in 3 weeks. I am not looking forward to it, for a whole host of reasons. Both girls are in nursery 3 days a week in preparation, and baby M…[Read more]

@vothgirl I am so glad you are finding a way to cope with PD. My sister suffered and still does I think and her son is six! It can be dreadful but I am so glad you are able to manage it. Are you having counselling also?

I have just gotten home from Geraldton after a day’s jaunt with the family and hubby came in to announce that my back tyre has…[Read more]

Aw, thanks @motherof5 and @vothgirl, I am blushing. It is such a great pattern, I want a closet full of them.

Top of the Lake sounds awesome. Sounds like my husband would like that one too!

I tried watching Game of Thrones but I think I like the book better (not to be clique hahaha but because I get a little scared of action-y graphic-y stuff and when reading books, it’s only as graphic as your mind lets it be). But Ed is super into Game of Thrones! The…[Read more]

Ooh @vothgirl I love that! Thanks for the tip! I am going to try it out on my very next pair.

Side note – is anyone else having the same trouble as me with the forums? I still can’t start topics – at the bottom where the compose window usually is on the main forums page, it just says “you cannot create a topic.”

@vothgirl & @rhythm thank you for the links, I’m always on the look out for a good pie crust recipe.

I often do the “shape in a disc and freeze” an extra pie crust (I make mine in a food processor and I often make extra pie crust to justify the hassle of having to wash it), but I find even the process of taking it out and thawing it before…[Read more]

Yay @vothgirl.
@Dawn R, that will look so cute.

Don’t you love it when a experiment works?
I made Trixie a Hopscotch top and skirt today but I adapted the skirt to have the Tea Party bloomers built in.
And it worked!

It was not with out a few head scratching moments though. As I have said in the past, I take my hat off to pattern designers,…[Read more]

Thank you @vothgirl, I’ve found it. My most viewed is a class picnic blouse. The picture isn’t great, and was a snap my husband took on his phone. The blouse is lovely, and is probably the most work o+s item I have made (so far…) but I don’t really know why it tops the view (in the small 100s not 1000s!!).

The item with the most favourites…[Read more]

@vothgirl Now that is a great tip! I didn’t know you could do that. Thanks!

It seems my most view picture is the embroidery detail on the back pocket of my Small Fry Skinny Jeans, which is nice. I was quite proud of myself for managing that! 😉
