KellyNYC started the topic Neck facing puckering in the forum oliver + s: butterfly blouse + skirt 10 years ago
Hello ladies!
I’m in the process of making the butterfly blouse and my neckline has quite a bit of puckering after sewing the facing. I had to press it into submission while folding it down into the inside and then once it was edge stitched I noticed how significant the puckering was. I guess I should have left more slack in the binding when…[Read more]

Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Favorite TV Show to watch while handsewing in the forum off topic 10 years ago
Cycle racing! Paris Roubaix if it’s a one night project ir the Giro d’Italia or Tour de France if it’s a three week marathon project!
You’ve got yo prepare really well and get your timing tight cause watching a rerun once your project is hand stitching ready doesn’t cut it when you’ve accidently overheard the result!

Tamara replied to the topic Who wants to sew the Oliver + S skirts with me and win?? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago
@Audrey, of course but I am currently away from home so when I get home I will get into the skirt sewing.
I am actually looking forward to it as it will be a nice change to sew only skirts, or pants, or tops at a time. Its fun to do something different to the norm.

I have bought one sweatshirt fleece from Girlcharlee and it has held up pretty well.
I just made a couple of these in french terry from GC and it’s amazing. I don’t know how cold it is where you are, if you would want something heavier though. They didn’t have fun prints, but a big variety of stripes and solids.
