Tutorials, links, and ideas for making clothes and accessories for babies and small children - and a few other bits!
Welcome to my Blog
I am a grandmother to 4 little girls. I blog about the things I make for them, review patterns, provide tutorials on how I've dealt with techniques or problems, which I hope may help others, and give links to the (mostly) free patterns I use. Every so often, I do a 'Best of..' post listing the best free patterns I've found under specific headings - babies, girls, boys etc. Enjoy the Blog!

Springtime skirts
A quick, short post this time. I made 4 skirts in 2 days before our family holiday with all the grand-daughters.
As you can see, three of them were made with purchased waistband elastic (which I'd had to get from the US). I've got slightly mixed feelings about this, which I'll reflect on below. But it certainly made them quick to make, at least the top right and bottom left, which are both made from stretchy knit fabric. More about how I made them below.
