Patterns Discussion / Re: Ottobre 5/2018

Thanks Misschris, I looked at their blog and saw nothing, but did not think of checking them up on Facebook.
Even then it looks strange as even after inverting the sizes, the smallest size end up the longest at the hem  (but at least the narrowest). In my toile I am also changing the hemline.

Has anyone tried to make dress 8 'Lozenge'? I am tracing the pattern, and am puzzled by the skirt (pattern piece 4). Do the size lines get inverted between the top and the bottom, or am I reading the pattern wrongly?
I am definitely making a toile for that one.

Nothing to add on Goldhawk Road, other than I am jealous!
When my daughter was about that age I took her to see The Lion King at the theatre and she absolutely loved it - live performance with live musicians, the opening scene is jaw-dropping.

I have started on simple straight skirt (Lekaka 5088, free pattern) which I can then use as a starting point for variations. I have made this a few times before but earlier versions no longer fit  :(
I have just cut the fabric for the toile (1m) out of printed cotton which came ages ago in an Abakhan bundle. Part of the toiling will involve adding a shaped waistband, rather than the straight waistband which came with the pattern. Also  I need to add at least 5 cm to the length, so will need to add a kick pleat at the back.

I'm in too, destashing is my priority for the year as my cupboard is over-spilling.
I am finishing a coat which should be done by 13th so I will be ready for the next project - probably a spring skirt or dress.

Great idea!

Another TSF survivor made it. I did not post much on TSF so probably will not be the life and soul of the party here either, but I really do appreciate the efforts of our lovely admins for getting this up and running and keeping everybody informed.
