Nicole replied to the topic Zipper (or other closure) for the quilted vest in the forum oliver + s: school days 10 years ago
I remember that style jacket being very popular in the 70’s.They were often fastened with a frog closure.
Would that work for you?Or you could finish the edge and then baste an open end zipper under the front edge and then topstitch in place?
I hope that is some help?

Erin S started the topic Zipper (or other closure) for the quilted vest in the forum oliver + s: school days 10 years ago
I’m making my second School Days Jacket, including the quilted vest (which I’m making with sleeves so I’ll call it the quilted jacket). I’d like to make the quilted jacket also be able to sometimes be a standalone lighter jacket for non-rainy days, but I’m trying to wrap my head around the cleanest way to add a zipper or some other type of closure…[Read more]

Absolutely @reeni !
I’m so bored of sewing navy pants and my seven and a half year old is fast outgrowing his current ones.
I’d love to give them a home and a new schoolyard!
Name your exchange…. -

I love this skirt too! Especially on little girls with their cute toddler swagger😀 It’s an absolute keeper of a pattern for sure.

does anyone have use for a few pairs of navy pants, sz 8 Sketchbook lengthened into pants with buttonhole elastic and zip fly? One is washable wool with houndstooth pocket linings and the other is cotton twill.
These were (and could still be) uniform pants, no embellishment but reinforced knees. -

A friend text this image to me after word of the “incident” got around. I’m tempted to do a bit of engraving 😉

Oh @thejennigirl😂 That sounds all too familiar. I have a confession to make! I ran off with my daughter’s sewing scissors because they were sharper than mine – and she hasn’t noticed yet😉😱

Somebody (nobody has fessed up yet) used my dressmaker sheers to cut something (undetermined object of sewing scissor torture, clearly) and nicked the blades (!!!)

However, Prince Charming, on his great white horse, gifted me with a new pair of my beloved gingher dress making sheers and has whisked my injured pair off to be…[Read more]

There is one little problem though with “Pheobe” – she has measurements that would accomodate a size that Chloë would wear but she is long. She is actually the size for a 3 year old so I am thinking of sneaking a little one into the mix just so I can play dress up with a life sized doll that doesn’t wriggle and get dirty before the photos are…[Read more]
