"I'd not thought of using scollops for armholes or hems ... This would be a very pretty detail for any simple little dress. I can see them on a LBD and looking divine!"

"It would be great if there was a simple single page drawing of this pattern that would just give you the basic outline with measurements. It looks fairly simple to make so it would be simple if it just gave the basic parts with the neck armholes, then the width length measurements below the armholes."

Sit Down Cross Stitch Cushion Pattern

"The pattern for this cushion uses big wool and supersized stitches which makes the cross stitch really easy and much faster compared to conventional cross stitch. Sit Down are not only great words for a cushion but it happens to be one of my favourite songs. This cushion has a lovely retro feel about it the bright colours and the interesting typography really get it noticed."
