Patterns Discussion / Re: Style Arc Easter Sale
« on: April 16, 2019, 12:28:51 PM »
I wish they would do the reduction on Amazon in the UK as well as the US - StyleArc paper patterns are the best of both worlds for me, since they're on proper paper but ready printed! I first discovered them on Amazon.

Sewing Professionally / Re: Sewing/selling children's clothes. The legal bits?

I do know that children's night clothes are fraught with difficulties because of regulations regarding fire-resistance.

Yes, but their inhabitants are British citizens...
... however, using that as the criterion would mean recalibrating our southern and western extremities, as the Falkland Islanders are also British citizens. Mind you, it wouldn't change anything unless we actually have any members from the Falklands.

About 10 years ago I had to design a logo for an organisation using an image of the world. There were plenty of fantastic images of the world from space that were free to use, but I had the most incredible difficulty finding one that showed the UK in a relatively central position (not terribly surprising since the images were released by NASA...)
I imagine that if I had been doing it for an Australian organisation I might still be looking.

I think we need a member in the Scillies in order to claim the true southern-most spot (or possibly even the Channel Islands).OK, can we have a volunteer to go to the Channel Islands and the Scillies and try to drum up interest?

I think most of us straighten out the UK in our heads, and forget how much the top leans to the left!

I think we're going to be able to label the four corners of the UK as: @Kenora, south; @greenfrog, north; @wrenkins, west; and ?not sure who's currently east? - but I think it will soon be @Lowena (who is currently south, and clearly loves extremes).
Unless anyone else can make a claim???

Hi @greenfrog - I was looking at Lerwick on the weather map this morning and commenting about how I forget quite how remote the Shetlands are! I like being fairly remote where we are, but you beat that any day!
There are a few of us who areobsessed with passionate about machine embroidery. Glad to have another one who is interested.
