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]

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!

Black coated denim, navy and light blue. Jeans and shirts is a pretty standard uniform for me.

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???

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.

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.

@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.

I bet you will see an interesting uptick in views after appearing on the blog. I’ll be curious to know what the difference is.

@with-love-heidi I wonder whether the Project Run & Play entry had something to do with it?

@justmejay I know the hunstman spider pic you mention, I can see why it has so many views!
