When opposites attract? Gah! What a rotten start! I have Michael Jackson’s song in my head now!
It will be fun to see what people come up with. I’ve been inspired already!

Gosh! I thought I was being clever making mine in the same print woven and knit but this takes the cake!
I just have a question, what sort of knit did you use?

Yours looks awesome Shelley @lightningmcstitch!! I just finished mine up in the wee hours of the morning, I still need to get the pants sewn up. I really love this shirt in all knit.

totterwalker started the topic Fairy Tale sizing help? Skip the darts? in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 10 years ago
Me again. My daughter’s dress turned out so well that I offered to make matching dresses for my nieces (who are also flower girls in my brother’s wedding). The catch: They both live two provinces away and there is no time to send a muslin back for fitting.
One of my nieces’ measurements are:
28″ for waist & chest
Should I make her a size 12…[Read more]

I’ve just started my zebra dress. I’ll round up some other pics from Flickr/Pinterest and get an inspiration post up on the blog to get us started. Now, I challenge anyone to come with a monotone/September catchy title!

Brittney replied to the topic Sleeves too short? in the forum oliver + s: school bus t-shirt 10 years ago
I have to lengthen the sleeves on this one, but my kids are tall for their age. When I made my son one without, it ended up being more of a 3/4 sleeve.

Sarvi replied to the topic How 'long' does the Tea Party Dress (18-24 mth) fit? in the forum oliver + s: tea party 10 years ago
Agree with the above! Wear for a long time with leggings. My daughter’s nearly 6 and her size 4s still fit, they’re just too short to wear without something underneath.

I’m working on back to school outfits for my 5 & 7 year old nieces. (Can someone tell me how this happened? I could have sworn it was last week I was watching a 2 & 4 year old).
In the past I’ve done matching dresses but this year both requested skirts and tops. So I’m doing hopscotch in a navy lawn and some of the fabric I was sent by Oliver + S…[Read more]

Separate machines would mean being able to use the other if one of them needs repairs. Having a combo means having to replace the whole thing if it went dicky.
