Don't know why really, so I should get to it soon. I hope it will turn out to be something I feared for nothing, as most things in the sewing department turn out to be :-)<br /><br />I look forward to his modeling day ;-)Karin van Damhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05265648838034821590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-288557062866975359.post-17873916379785435312010-03-24T17:20:04.209+11:002010-03-24T17:20:04.209+11:00Your topstitching paid off completely.

Husband loves beanies, I made him Trilobite recently for a trip abroad.<br /><br />Back to the issue of pants- do I shorten the crotch on the lengthen/shorten line, or do I chop off from the waistline and then make a longer waistband? Do I keep the same pocket shape, but lower it? Thanks so much, I really want to conquer this issue. (He of course doesn't see it as an issue after a lifetime of wearing badly fitted clothes, but he'll be converted eventually.)<br /><br />I'm definitely putting you on my faves list- thanks so much!<br /><br />(even more than I hate the constant oppressive damp, I hate horrible little animals invading my house. It baffles me. I go to bed with a pristine house, I wake up with ants swarming on a wall. Ergh.)Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08235341738044433500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-288557062866975359.post-20300839522286812642010-03-23T01:49:51.884+11:002010-03-23T01:49:51.884+11:00Nice job on the destashing.

Everyone else (ie, me) looks very neglectful in the man-sewing department. Can Grant really wear shorts in Melbourne in March? He must be tough.<br />I love the wooly hats. <br />I would do a mould and mildew comparison, but it would be too depressing, it has rained every day here for more than a month, even worse than usual for this time of year.kbencohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885068563358776147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-288557062866975359.post-66779160847076171212010-03-21T10:53:04.573+11:002010-03-21T10:53:04.573+11:00Those are great looking pants, top stitching, cont...Those are great looking pants, top stitching, contrasting pockets and fly and all.Faye Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02781186043996633965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-288557062866975359.post-12700148302407718492010-03-21T10:33:32.582+11:002010-03-21T10:33:32.582+11:00That is some terrific looking menswear!
