I have had to use the largest size on the pattern as I am going with the hip measurements (that was a bit depressing). I am hoping that the pattern is generous and I'll be able to take it down a size or two...fingers crossed!<br />Best wishes<br />Ellie<br />Ellie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-21552609611198647602014-04-10T18:46:26.916+01:002014-04-10T18:46:26.916+01:00Thanks, Mirjam.

I've just made a duck tape model of myself so that I can get back to dressmaking and I think I'm going to do a post on it if I can pluck up the courage, its really is horrible, I'm sure I'm not the size and figure it has come out. lolcrafty cat cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06251582085392890533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-33933651132950158772014-04-09T17:46:12.805+01:002014-04-09T17:46:12.805+01:00When I saw the sew along I did think of you Elly, ...When I saw the sew along I did think of you Elly, that's so funny!<br />So nice that you are joining!

I am definitely going to make the skirt in denim and much as I would love to use the flowery fabric, I'm not sure whether it might be too much as a skirt. (I'm of the 'pattern on the top half, plain on the bottom half' type usually). I am thinking that I ought to buy some more of the flowery fabric anyway though, just because I love it!<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-2629879727865851492014-04-06T23:12:46.698+01:002014-04-06T23:12:46.698+01:00Thanks, Jane.

I would love to have been able to be good at sewing and make a simple top out of the flowery material. I may have to go back to the stall and buy some more, just in case!<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-28120703835474227962014-04-06T21:57:22.074+01:002014-04-06T21:57:22.074+01:00I love that flower fabric.
