@ock-du-spock the layette pattern is fabulous! My daughter practically lived in the bodysuits when she was tiny – being a summer babe and all.
I am currently drafting off a McCall’s shirt pattern for Murray’s shirt. His chest measurement didn’t go near the Jalie sizes.

Hi!
I’m attempting to sew the Cinema dress but I’m in doubt which size will be the best fit.

Waist: 33
Hips: 38Looking at the size chart this leaves me all over the place. A size 10 in bust, a size 14 in waist and a size 6 in hips, so what do I do? I realize I most likely will have to do a FBA…[Read more]

@justsewit @roundtheworldgirl Thanks ladies for your sweet words 😀 yes the new skirts are stretchy waisted maternity skirts! Not sure if it’s going to be a boy or girl yet (most likely a boy!)… I’m about halfway through the pregnancy… and definitely needing some stretchy waists at this point! Masha, not sure about the nappies… the elastic…[Read more]

@lightningmcstitch is correct. This is one pattern that needs to fit well in the girth. Get the smaller size.
(And make a muslin bodice)

I would do as you suggest but sew one side of your collar to the jacket ( the under collar) and the upper collar to your facing/lining.
Then sew those together
