    These are gorgeous. I love them.
  • Hoping someone can help me. I am looking for a pattern for trousers with bib or dungarees for both adults and children. im looking everywhere but can only seem to find baby dungarees. is there a better description i can use?

    You would probably be more likely to find a pattern on a US site. I think In the US they are called coveralls or overalls, you could also try googling pants with bib (although I take no responsibility for what "hits" that might get you ha ha)

    I can never find my mobile either. BF bought me a cover on a cord around my neck for my mobile! Mind you I have caught it on occasion, leaning forward into things and so have to remember to tuck it into my coat now! :D
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Well keeping up with my aim to sew every day. I have made a shopping bag, and hand sewn some lining in a bag made of mens ties. I also lined a jeans bag too. All little jobs that have been lying there for months and months.
    I want to make other things but I wanted to clear up some of the jobs that have been sitting unloved for a while.

    My Abakhan order (minus the pen) has arrived today. Some canvas fabrics, felt, and guttermans thread. That has to be the last things that I have ordered, until I can make some money. So the target of making every day, to get into the routine is important. Then I will be able to stock a table or similar. The nursery may be interested once again, in letting me sit in the office area and show my goods, and I can give them a donation. So I want to get that sorted out.

    Today I may also get to sew again this evening, arm willing, as twin1 is coming over to look after her daughter for a little while.
