The Amazing Adventures of Taracat. Bad back, a new(ish) hobby and Me Made May ’14 week one. Sewing is pretty impossible at the moment, I have done something painful to my back and all attempts to work at my machine have left me in agony so I have had to admit defeat until it sorts itself out. This is very annoying as I have a queue of projects including my nearly Dolly Clackett. Dress, another Emery. And my Simplicity wrap dress. However my sanity has been saved by the arrival of this gorgeous package:.

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics: April 2013

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Saturday, 13 April 2013. That's All She Wrote . For now, anyway. Tomorrow we leave for Belfast to get hitched good and proper. After seemingly endless trips to the mechanic, and quite a bit of money paid out, our car is up and running, which is a relief. Today will be spent packing her, which, for some reason, is the bit I love. It's like tetris with suitcases. I couldn't help it! See you all then!

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Sunday, 23 June 2013. In Which I Shamelessly Plug My New Blog. It's been pretty hectic round these parts recently! I haven't done much clothes sewing, because I've been working like a mad thing on items for my Etsy store. I also moved the store blog over from Wordpress (which I could never get to grips with) to the lovely Blogger, and already I'm enjoying it tons more! Which will end tonight. From Sense...

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics: In Which I Obey The Spirit If Not The Letter

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Tuesday, 15 October 2013. In Which I Obey The Spirit If Not The Letter. I'm not usually one for adjusting patterns too dramatically. I trust completely in the designer, have no faith in my own judgement, and always do what the pattern tells me to. So, a few months back I bought the Gathered Sundress. Muslin in my trusty polka dot cotton, and hated it! And gathered cotton at the tummy? This dress is a pa...

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Friday, 9 August 2013. In Which I Put Three Year Old Fabric To Good Use At Last. Once upon a time, I received a shiny new sewing machine for Christmas. Being so green, I decided to buy some cheap fabric to practice on, and so snapped up a 7 metre remnant of surprisingly good quality polka dot cotton for £7.00. Three years later*, and I have used this cotton for everything. I didn't go for any particular...

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Friday, 12 July 2013. The Wedding Dress Question. Specifically, what to do with my wedding dress now? My first thought was to have it dyed so I could wear it again. It is knee length after all. But where am I realistically going to wear a satin dress, of any colour? If anyone out there has been married, what did you do with your dress? Anyone have any super creative ideas? So all ideas are welcome!

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Wednesday, 27 February 2013. While casually surfing eBay for fabrics last night, I stumbled upon a seller called Minerva Crafts. Some simple Googling later turned up their official website, and all I can say is, why have I never heard of this company before! I'm sure some of you out there in blogland have shopped with them before, and they'll need no introduction, but for me, it was a pleasant surprise.

Of Dropped Stitches and Super Heroics. The life and loves of a geek girl: comics, crafts and costumes. Saturday, 30 March 2013. Thanks to my very generous mother-in-law and sisters-in-law, I got some vouchers to spend at Minerva Crafts for my recent birthday. So of course I blew it all on fabric (and a few buttons.). First, I got some excellent quality wine coloured corduroy, to turn into the Kelly skirt. It looks more red in this photo, but it is definitely wine.). With the yoke with cut outs in turquoi...

Nessa's Place: August 2015
http://nessahux.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, 30 August 2015. I have finished my nephew's wedding ring quilt, just in time for their first year. I have written about the construction details of this quilt in a previous post. If you are interested. For today's post I am just sharing photos and close up details, as I am very proud of this make - can you tell? The backing I chose for this quilt is the same Terra Australis design and is in coordinating colours. Sorry about the poor, yellow lighting in these two photos,. Sew Kind of Wonderful.
