    I'm 6+4 today BM, so a while to go yet... But if you wanted to join me on there... It'd help your period problems anyway ;)

    Afternoon all.

    I had things multi-quoted on the old thread, and I've lost them now. Never mind, I'm sure they will come back if they were important.

    We failed at seeing any of the acts at the hat fair today, as it was too busy to get close enough to see anything. I had a mooch around the stalls though while Izzy was sleeping (DH was working, but it was quite quiet in the shop - off-licence) so I just left her in the corner with him. Luxury. I went and bought myself a few patterns too. I'm failing completely at finding any clothes I like that fit me and don't make me look like an elephant, so now I've got bedtimes sorted I'm going to have some evening sewing time. Didn't actually buy any fabric to sew with, that will be the next step. Need to clear the table enough to fit the sewing machine on first anyhow. I won't get to buy any fabric till at least Thursday, so that should be pleanty of time to tidy up!

    Actually I think I need to invest in a Gok book or something. I used to know what shapes/styles of clothes to wear, but now I'm a bit bigger and FAR more curvy (read, I still look 3 months pregnant) I'm at a loss - everything just makes me look massive. And seeing as for the moment loosing weight doesn't seem to be happening I'm determined to find some clothes that fit and look good. I'm sick of just pulling on whatever is clean. I want to wear something that is flattering too!

    ladybird, i know exactly how you feel! I did find a nifty tool online on one of the old Gok show websites that's really useful in telling you your shape.

    Cool that you sew! Do you make clothes or is it more crafty stuff? My mum was an excellent sewer, a skill i sadly did not inherit.

    I feel your pain:(

    Are you going to sew your own clothes? That is very clever of you:T
