cybele727 started the topic Sizing question in the forum oliver + s: popover 9 years ago
So I measured Ms. 6.5. Her chest is 22.5 inches, which is a size 2. The length she needs is 27 inches. That’s about a size 7. Generally I am making size 7 dresses for her (eg- the hopscotch).
I can’t see cutting a size 2 width and a size 7 length!
Got advice? (other than make a muslin… I am lazy today and need a quick fix for finding my mojo!1)

@motherof5 Hi, I was wondering where you get your clothing labels that I have seen in your pictures. They are really nice looking and I wanted to get some labels made to personalize my kids clothes.
I can’t figure out how to private message people or if that is even an option in this forum.

So I have been in an absolute FUNK. ๐
This primary election business is getting to me because of all the vitriol and I can’t simply turn away because it is our future. (US) (That’s all I will say about politics here.)
And work has been icky. I’ve had to deal with more people who think that fists are an acceptable form of communication…[Read more]

I’m wearing a merino fleece Metro T right now! Have a look at http://www.thefabricstore.com.au the have an L.A. store so US shipping should be reasonable.
There’s an amazing outdoor fabric supplier in the UK that I’ve purchased from, and I keep finding one in Canada when I’m searching online, but I forget the name…. -

Our summer trip is to Glacier National Park which reads cold nights for my Florida kids. I want to make a few fieldtrip Ragland and leggings in either a merino knit or thin fleece. Does anyone have any favorite sources for high quality technical fabrics online?

Oh I love it Heidi! It is so comfortable that I confess to living in it a bit too much since it was made. It has the stains of life on it😜.
I am tossing up what to use to make another whilst struggling to type this and contain a climbing toddler at the same time. I have more kaufman laguna knit but I also want to make an Appleton top.
I know it…[Read more]

How do you like your concord Tamara? I love mine and have been wearing it weekly. I’ve already traced a hacked version with a Kwiksew 3915 runched v neck collar.
I just finished my first Alabama Chanin item, self drafted fingerless gloves. I enjoyed the process much more than I expected and my RSI didn’t play up ๐ I’ve got fabric, blue and…[Read more] -

@justsewit, you could always send her a friendship request. Once it is accepted you’ll be able to send a private message.

Thankyou @todd the latter is the answer. It is such a pity this had to change all for the sake of someone getting kicks out of stupid emails. But it is safety first and that is what matters.
Thanks again!

Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Help with fitting at back please! in the forum liesl + co: bistro dress 9 years ago
Yes, I think @justsewit might be right. It’s difficult to tell from the photos, but you might want to try a swayback adjustment. Or maybe you just need to take in the hips more? It sort of looks like if you pin the hips, especially at the back, to be a little tighter you’ll eliminate the drag lines. It definitely doesn’t need to be looser–overall…[Read more]

There could be a a couple things here.
The name and the @ tag are not always the same. If I would try to send a message to @Tamara it wouldn’t get through to you because that’s your display name. I would need to address it to @justsewit because that’s your username. Could that be it?
The second thing it could be is something new–so it wouldn’t…[Read more]
