Just thought I'd post to let any Canadian Mama's know I got my new issue of Ottobre today. So if you haven't got it yet it's on it's way. I love this issue I can't wait to make Pattern #17 & #18 & #3 and, and, and LOL :cloud9:

I got it today too!! Unfortunately my next month is booked as far as sewing goes: I have to finish a sling, make one polar jacket for me, one for dh, make Catherine's birthday outfit, make a nightgown and a dress for Eve... I've gone back to school last week, so all this during the hour or so I can carve myself some of the evenings...

Ah-ha, I think I'm going to take the peasant tops from this issue and make them into the nightgown for Eve, yippee!!

Oh I really like that idea. They will be very comfy and cute too. I have a Handfasting in July I need to make her dress and 4-6 cloaks for so I am going to be a very busy beaver soon as well. I am just going to have to sqeeze in some time to try out a few of these patterns. This Issue I know is going to get alot of use. It's totaly our style ;)

I made the dress this week -- I was kinda surprised at the shape of the arms -- she seems to like it. Plus I think it is kind of wide, but the bodice lengthened to be a dress would be perfect for a nightie.

I'll post a sns when I get a free moment at the computer.

BTW it is super fast to make and the directions are pretty good. I got the issue tuesday and she wore it to daycare yesterday.
