If you do use the twin needle it can help to put some wash-away interfacing underneath the hem as you sew it - it makes it lie flatter.

Do you have a twin needle?  That is going to give the best result.

It looked much warmer outside than it really was this morning! 

I think @Bodgeitandscarper is the real arbiter of the weather clothes-wise.  If she isn't wearing shorts yet, it is definitely too cold.  If she is, you might want to wait a few weeks before showing your knees!

I don't know what I'd do without water soluble pens - I use them for garment making and quilting, and I've often thought that they're one of many reasons why I'd be no good on Sewing Bee!  My items definitely need to be washed by the time I've finished!

I did once draw all over a present I was making for my Mum, only to realise that I hadn't picked up my soluble pen, but a normal felt tip...  ... astonishingly I managed to wash it out.  I'm still not sure how.

There's a whole section called 'Members' Diaries'!  There's a separate section of diaries for quilters, but anything can go in the main diaries anyway. 

@Tamnymore I always have my hair tied up in a ponytail (high up to keep my neck cool) at night, so I'm expecting to have to find a way of making the two work together!!  I'm sure there will be a way...

@twopence I sleep on my front and side, so a scarf would have to be fixed in place somehow.
