I guess for me nice out is when the sun is out and its warm enough to go out without a jacket- or you just need a thin jacket. :) Hard to say a specific temp really. I hate overheating- dying warm. lol

as long as it doesn't go the other extreme with over 30C temperatures :P Thanks :D I went with a size bigger for the shirt than his age, in the hope it'll be a comfortable fit - the hat is hit or miss on the size, as I didn't know his head measurement before I'd started sewing 😊

Thanks :D I got the top & overalls this morning, so I had to play with them :D Thanks!! :D I was going to draw a superhero on the card, but I couldn't find which ones he likes the best (nor could I find an idiot's guide for drawing them :P), so I went with a dragon instead ;) I'm still surprised I found the shirt fabric so easily - normally I can never find dinosaur fabric anywhere, and this was only £3 a metre too (standard polycotton, so it's easy to wash too) ;) Sometimes it helps to take a break from one type of craft for a bit, especially if you've got other big projects on the go! Your wall painting looked fantastic :D What did your Mum say when she saw it?

It was the dark blue moon one ;) I wondered how it looked so different - I hadn't thought of it being candy dust and the fireflies!

just a regular single needle - whatever works best for the fabric you're sewing the buttons on to ;) The left side of the zigzag stitch goes in one hole of the button, and if you've got it lined up perfectly, the right side of the zigzag goes in the other hole ;) .... And if it's a 4-hole button, you just either do the same again for the bottom two holes, or do another stitch between the top left and bottom right hole (if that makes sense?)

to be honest, I normally hand crank the machine seeing as I know it would just try forcing the needle through anything - I think maybe next time I would hand sew shirt buttons on, just to be on the safe side laughs If you use a mechanical (not computerised) sewing machine, it would just stop if it hit the button, rather than trying to put more force to get the needle through the obstruction, so you need a bit less bravery ;)

We had around 20C, which is nice :) 30c is def. way to hot for me to be comfortable

Fingers crossed that the hat will be a nice fit. :D And that you get some cute photos of him wearing everything. :)

xD Heading out for a soccermatch later here. :) Should be nice. :D

Love your HA today! :D She looks perfect. :D

20C to 25C I can handle, but hotter than that just makes me feel like I'll melt! 😊 :P

nods with the velcro, I'm hoping it'll be suitably adjustable so it fits - if anything it might be a little snug, but with a bit of luck my cousin got the measurement wrong in the first place (otherwise that kid has a big head for his age!) :P

Polycotton blend is a really nice one to wash too and less wrinkle prone. :) OH! I didn't tell you how she received it? I am sorry! She got home and was super shocked but loved it immensely. She keeps telling me how much she loves it. I am really happy she loves it (so I don't have to re-do it!). :) I love how well the shirt and overalls work!

Thank you so much! :D <3

nods a lot less likely to shrink than pure cotton too! ;) That's fantastic that she likes it so much :D :D :D Thanks :D I was finding it hard to get the right kind of shirt under the overalls - most of the red ones clashed with the pink on the overalls, but the pink ones weren't the right shade either 😊
