Very cool: Making your dd a pattern from scratch, with just a set of measurements, and a couple of tools.
Not so cool: Marking the patterns with the tracing wheel, on the hardwood floors. *cough* Yeah.

Very cool. What is the pattern for? You always make the cutest things for her!
ooops - I have been known to rotary cut into the carpet once or twice....but its easier to hide1
I'm impressed, I am not confident enough to make my own patterns yet. I do a good enough job of messing up commercial patterns as it is LOL Can't wait to see the finished product.
Oops! Not a good idea?
Marking the floors sounds like something I would do :)
thanks for stopping by.
Dear M,
You are one multitalented woman you know.
Where did you learn to make patterns?
I was jsut talking about this with my girlfriend yesterday
That is one thing I would love to learn to do. Is it difficult - could you do a post on how to make a pattern ( ha as if making a pattern could be learnt in one post . ok - well a couple of posts?)
hugs bug

Felicity-I took a couple of terms of a patterndrafting course, from a slightly scary very strict Japanese lady. :p The principles themselves, are not spectacularly hard to understand, since it's just basic A to B to C, but the execution seems to be really tricky, lol. I can follow the instructions, and if I do it right, I can come out with a workable pattern. If I do it wrong, I have no freaking clue what is going on. :lol: I am still a total noob...but with perseverance, I figure I can make a COUPLE of useable things, right? lol
