You know … i have the same situation!! Exactly. So, Iām curious to the answer too. I finally wondered if tje measurement is *outside* the box; from outer line to outer line. Anyway … sort of grateful Iām not the only one who noticed. Curious to hear!

I’m totally new here, and I’m excited to start sewing my first ever Oliver + S pattern. I’m working with the Cappuccino Dress Pattern, and I’ve tried printing it from two different computers (one Mac and one PC), and two different printers, each time we’ve carefully ensured that the scale is set to 100%, not scale to fit, and each time the test…[Read more]

You only interface ONE of the collar pieces.
For View A this will become the outer collar. The inner collar, the one that shows more when the collar is turned down as worn, is not interfaced.
For View B’s Mandarin collar it is reversed – the interfaced collar piece is on the inside. -

I am making view A of the Gallery Tunic and I am a little confused on attaching the collar. Is the under collar interfaced or not interfaced?

I figured that was wrong! But I only pinned a bit like that to take a picture to ask if that’s what was meant by pin on the seam line. š
I guess I just have a lot of ease. I will try it. The thing about doing a new thing… you aren’t sure you’ve done it correctly until it turns out or doesn’t and it’s “too late.” HA! But once you have the…[Read more]

The last picture is a wrong way go back š don’t do that.
The raw edges should be aligned. Raw edge of collar band facing, shirt, then collar band.
The dots (1/2″ in from ends) should align with the edges of the finished plackets. Pin those ends first. Then pin the centre notches, then side notches then keep bisecting each section with pins until…[Read more] -

Hmmm, not sure quite what you mean. The flat pattern piece is only shown once in the instructions and that’s on the first page where the pattern pieces are shown numbered and named.
The only pattern piece you need for the pants is number 12: Leggings.
It is quite wide as there’s only the one piece to fully around the leg with the single seam at…[Read more] -

Using leggings pattern, but pictures in directions do not match cut pattern pieces. Why? also, legs are certainly wide for leggings. Is this the correct pattern piece for these pants?

In the pic above the green is 1/2 inch of neckline. The collar band is aligned and pinned to the basting line (where interfacing starts).

When you say pin on seamline do you mean aligning raw edge of collar band with the stitchline (basting line) like this:
