Recipe for ecstasy

After posting about P's pants problem I discovered I was getting some blog hits via Google searches and let's just say the folks who were looking for boy's butt crack probably weren't hoping for a review of a sewing pattern that may solve the problem!

So, let me make it clear right here that my recipe for ecstasy may not be what you're looking for, but here it is, and I imagine there'll be an audience for whom the blog is intended who'll be nodding their heads in agreement.

Flashback Skinny T + Overlocker + Walking Foot + Twin Needle + Compliant Toddler = Ecstasy

Straight up size 3 with a bit of extra length in body and sleeves to make it last! (I really should measure first though as I've overdone it a bit)



With ruffles!

And more ruffles! And bless my darling little girl she held her hands just perfectly to cover the jam tart marks from this morning's post-kindy-drop-off secret coffee stop (don't tell P!)

I'm feeling really pleased with my knit sewing considering my first attempt was only quite recently. For all those whose ideas and advice I've stolen or taken, thank you. It seems that tools are everything. I can't say how glad I am I finally bought a walking foot, and the overlocker and I, well it's true love I think.

But mostly I just love this kid....
