housecall started the topic Ribbon in the forum oliver + s: garden party 10 years ago
I am going to be starting my first garden party dress. I want to use ribbon in place of the contrast trim piece. Do I just substitute the ribbon for the waistband pieces? What about the front yoke? Or do I need to just apply it with edge stitching on top of the existing fabric pieces?

That sounds very painful Heidi! Just rest up and make sure you are on the mend. Take care of the injury and hopefully you can trace patterns later in the week. Do you have anything to rub on the site to ease the pain?
We are finding that broken bones are painful when they heel (So I don’t know how you would manage with your injury). Murray has…[Read more]

I don’t think I’ll be sewing for a week or so 🙁 I’ve managed to pull something in my hip on our Christmas camping trip and am on rest and crutches. Maybe later in the week I’ll be able to sit at the table and trace patterns.

Tamara replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago
Well, the sewing drought is now over (for now). I have just been spending some time this morning, sewing the little blue hopscotch skirt in size 12-18 months for Chloë. I started this before Murray’s accident so it has been waiting on the sewing table for much longer than the usual length of time.
I am hoping to sew the white hide and seek tunic…[Read more]

Reeni replied to the topic Monochrome Project- B&W in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago
finally the photos I have wanted to take for about 3 months — on her, a repurposed black-on-white eyelet made into an Apple-picking dress (with a single-breasted placket, I didn’t have enough); on him, Field trip raglan with 3/4 sleeves in bamboo knit, and Field Trip pants in black mini-corduroy.
Really, an all-white hall is the perfect…[Read more] -

Yay @angelwingneedlearts, I am so pleased.
Three inches would be no problem at all, I added that to a swish little black hanky linen version.~Nicole~

I have added length to the Portfolio with is sort of the ‘prequel’ to this lovely pattern.
I added it to the bottom, continuing the slight ‘A’ line effect.
Don’t forget to add to all the panels. 🙂
I hope that helps.
