Addie replied to the topic Has anyone paired the B6183 top with the Everyday Skirt? in the forum liesl + co: everyday skirt 9 years ago
Thank you Liesl. These are the fabrics I am considering:
1. Print
2. Solids: linen, cotton and/or this linen.
I would like them to work as separates too. But I’m pondering whether it might be fun to add a bit of the print or some color blocking on the top with the wine and white linen. I would like to look modern and a little different without…[Read more] -

I’d totally wear them together! I think it all depends on the fabrics you choose. But yes, they would absolutely work as a pair. It’s been on my list to sew a matching top and skirt using these two patterns, so if you get to it before I do I hope you’ll post photos! I think they could be cute as separates, but also as a matching set.

I think if you got a good fit of your bust /waist it could look lovely. I am not tall or willowy so avoid too much ‘floatiness’. I did wear the skirt with the Weekend blouse but I had good bust/under bust definition.
This skirt sat really low on me, with looser tops I felt a bit ‘messy in the middle’.
I am not sure I am being much help…sorry. -

Thanks Nicole. I too have worn tees with this skirt but I’m looking for something a little fancier and not tucked in, thus the idea of the B6183. Do you think it would work together?

I wore my Everyday skirt through out my last pregnancy with a fitted black tee. I quite liked that silhouette.

Hello Fellow Sewists,
I have made two everyday skirts and I love them because they are so easy to sew and wear! I’m not often a fan of elastic waists but this one is so cleverly done and looks great.Now I want to make a new outfit and am considering pairing the skirt with the princess-seamed Lisette top B6183. The skirt will be a print and I’m…[Read more]

And come September you can also…[Read more]

Tamara replied to the topic Gallery Tunic + Dress Sew Along in the forum
Sew Alongs 9 years agoI would measure your arm from shoulder point to the widest part of your upper arm and then measure to the pattern to see if this corresponds and then do the same from the widest part down to the elbow and then again from elbow to wrist. This will give you a good indication of where you are shorter on your arm and where you need to shorten the…[Read more]

Dorothy has a beautiful meaning to the…[Read more]

She was born at the Birth Centre (not part of a hospital, I’ve heard too many scary stories about US Obstetricians!). I was able to walk there!All good, we were home within 5 hours. Settling in to life with three kids is going quite well!
Dorothy only wakes up once or twice to feed overnight. We are very lucky 🙂 -
