with love Heidi

That’s great to hear, @with-love-heidi! My mom made one with a laminate that she’s been using for a long time, too. I need to find time to make one for myself!

I bought a Gertie border print and now my daughter is in a size that to use border prints, I need a waist seam in the pattern. I am eagerly awaiting the twirling dress. It is in some ways a simplified version of fairy tale (in a good way), it seems. Although anytime I have an even slightly fitted bodice, I have to make a…[Read more]

@with-love-heidi – I put up a picture on Flickr of the tee with a link to the Youtube video I used to make the mods.

@with-love-heidi, your layette is divine!

I lined some wool dungarees I made Trixie with lawn.
See here http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/baby-beatrix.html (not O+S *blush*)
They are brilliant as the wool is naturally water repellent keeping her dry when she toddles in wet grass.
Great choice!

@with-love-heidi Yes!
Black coated denim, navy and light blue. Jeans and shirts is a pretty standard uniform for me.

@motherof5 @with-love-heidi No blog post yet but there will be one sometime soonish. I used this pattern. They turned out really cute but I found the pattern directions really confusing.

@motherof5 and @with-love-heidi, Thank you both. I’ll defintely sew them up for the little lad. @motherof5 those shorts a very cute!!! I think the pattern will give the desired result

@JWo, @with-love-heidi has and they looked great.

@with-love-heidi thanks so much for starting the thread.

I’m thinking/planning on a holiday dress with hand embroidery on the front yoke of the Hide-and-Seek Dress, but will I have enough time???

@with-love-heidi, what is your browser History? 😉
Too funny.

I am thinking shorts with singlet tops as pjs @etc3 does it each year so well.

@with-love-heidi that vest is so smart! Love the pop of color in the lining.

Not to go against @with-love-heidi, she sews for a plethora of lucky children, I would only add to the back if she is really overweight.
Chubby little girls tend to have big tummies, which this dress would disguise well, if you add to the back it may get ‘tenty’ and lose the original look.

@with-love-heidi it looks fantastic! I especially love that close fit at the chest – no slipping or gaping! This has definitely landed the pattern on my wish list. Even at my thinnest I am in the smallest size, right now I’d need to go up, so it seems a good investment.

@with-love-heidi, please promise you will post pics of Appleton once it is done? I am very intrigued by the pattern.

I have been doing a little selfish sewing lately. Made a very successful Josephine (Made By Rae) and started on a second. The second is not going well, however, and it is currently in time-out for about the fourth time. In the…[Read more]

Love the sound of that trench @with-love-heidi.
@jackir the LTTS book is such a treasure trove. Have fun with it.
I just got back from the school run and it is soooooo cold. We ride our bikes and now I’m going to knock up some snoods (neckwarmers) out of leftover bits of polar fleece.
