sew and so: black is the new red
http://sew-and-so.blogspot.com/2015/02/black-is-new-red.html
February 25, 2015. Black is the new red. A little bit of selfish sewing in the midst of baby-sewing craziness! As it happens, I finished this dress just in time for my birthday tomorrow. But I won't be wearing it, because there's a chance of snow and it's only supposed to get up to 33 degrees, tops. That's .5 degrees for you Celsius folks, and I don't know how you live with that temperature scale, because that sounds even worse! Nope Definitely a maternity dress. (I'm at 24 1/2 weeks now.). I added a lit...

Wednesday, 15 July 2015. London Meet Up - A Review. I have just had the. I was in London visiting my brother. The main reason for going down was to attend Secret Cinema. The film this year was Empire Strikes Back, and as my brother and I are both. Which is vaguely uniform-like. I basted an insignia badge on, to give it a more military feel, and wore the scarf they rather oddly insisted everyone wore. For the record, I think this is probably as close to cosplay as I am ever likely to get. 4 of us ( Shivani.

The Seeds of 3. Sewing, Gardening, and Homeschooling Adventures. Testing, Testing……. June 2, 2014. As a trained scientist, everything I do revolves around using the scientific method. You would be surprised at how globally helpful it can be when faced with questions that need to be answered, especially when there are way to many variables and permutations in play. Have I lost your attention yet? 1) what type of garment to make – a dress? 2) What size(s) to make? 2T, 6 months, 8 years? 2) GOTS (and really...

Double denim shirt success: tracing my own pattern – Yes I Like That
https://yesilikethat.wordpress.com/2014/02/18/double-denim-shirt-success-tracing-my-own-pattern
Yes I Like That. Double denim shirt success: tracing my own pattern. February 18, 2014. I’ve cracked it! At least, I think I have. I’ll let you decide. Here’s what I’m talking about:. I’ve finally managed to make a shirt for my husband that fits. You might remember my first attempt was not a success. After another failed muslin of Burda 7045 I decided to give it up as a bad job and trace one of his existing shirts. I used the method David explains in this video tutorial. I now see I’ve sewed that l...

Mandy, you’re a fine girl. Many months ago, it was a toss up between Tessuti’s Mandy. And Grainline’s Hemlock. I can’t remember why now, but for some (maybe rational) reason I went with Mandy. However, I think my fabric selection was a subliminal ode to Hemlock now I look at it! I LOVE this top, and I want to wear it ALL THE TIME! I have to remember to circulate it 🙂. As much as I LOVE THIS TOP, my sewing machine HATES KNIT FABRIC. Hence the ugly neck stitching. Conclusion: If you want a comfortable, ea...

We were married under three 100 year old London Plane trees in Victoria’s high country in mid-April, just as the autumn leaves started to turn. I sewed my wedding dress (duh) and I don’t think I’ve been prouder of something I’ve achieved for myself – ever. It made the experience that much more special! Leisa, my Fabric Fairy Godmother. Alessia and the crew @ Marfy – the best patterns out there – thank you! Vikki Leigh Martin, for helping with proportion and fit. Susan Khalje, for enabling. All photos (ex...
