All your excuses were valid, @neumannsalva ! I sympathise ... and the bread looks delicious 😁 I loved that shawl pattern by the way. I think I will be making another one in thicker yarn next ... That

Yes, please, @neumannsalva ! Beam me up to the fabric shop ! 😁

😂 the 'dressperiment' is going slowly, @neumannsalva I got as far as printing, sellotaping and then tracing the correct size for Jen and she changed her mind ! She wants another dress first ( it's very

I love both tops, @neumannsalva ! It's really interesting to see how the look of the garment can be changed by adding or leaving out the cuffs. 😊

I really enjoyed reading the process you went through for the creation of your piece, @neumannsalva. Also I think it's a genius idea to have that convertible headgear / sweater : great potential ! XX

Hello, @neumannsalva ! I also love my overlocker (serger), though it does struggle on thick fabrics. I guess you don't have time to make a wirework mannequin to display your dress - the wire could be like

Hola, @jicrochet. Me alegra mucho que me escribas :D En general estoy bien pero muy ermitaña ! (y tratando de evitar contagio: cosiendo y tejiendo). Espero que tu también estés bien XX

I haven't had any problems when weaving in ends as I go like this. I guess it relies on the yarn to some extent. ( I mainly knit with acrylics :D )

Fashionating ! 😁 I like the fabric choice too, @neumannsalva !

Yep, I sympathise about the number of books, @neumannsalva : bits of paper / old magazines / let alone yarn and bits of fabric all too good to throw away or may be needed later type of feeling. I was wondering

So glad you didn't burn it, @neumannsalva ! 😁 I think the dress turned out great and it's awesome to give garments a second lease of life by dyeing them. So will you be dyeing that new fabric ?

I really liked your drawings, @pashinni I've been doing little drawings daily for ages now. I'll try and do a post of my inktober 21 so far.

Seen it now and it looks really good. So the thread was polyester :D

Hi @neumannsalva! I can hardly wait for your next post to see whether or not you've dyed it (and how you got on with the process). Sew long and prosper 😁

@crosheille 💓 Thank you so much for the lovely mention ! I had great joy writing for #needleworkmonday and met wonderful people too. I learnt lots and 'concentrated' weekly to write coherent posts with

:D I also l have those doubting moments often turning to days, weeks, months - shall I continue / shall I unravel moments. Shall I even print the whole 30 pages of a sewing pattern ? Still I couldn't think

Great post, @neumannsalva. I wonder whether you could get in touch with Tilly and the Buttons to see if they can suggest how to sort the problem? You did a great job and should be proud to be wearing a
