Order of attack!

Hello everyone from a very beautiful, sunshiney, autumnal day in England!

I am learning to sew using the oliver and s patterns and I am loving it. I just wondered if there are other people who are doing this and if so how they're doing it - in what order.


I started with the bedtime story pyjamas and have made two yummy pairs.

Next a popover skirt in needlecord. Very beautiful and I love deciding whether to position it on, under or over my little girls round tummy!

I got a bit jealous of the utter beauty of the pyjamas on my little girl so I'm making myself a pair of pyjama lounge pants from the Amy Butler in stitches book. So far I've cut out the pieces. My first non Oliver and S experiment.


I have just placed an order for the sandbox pants, 2+2 and the birthday party dress (possibly too hard but the pictures on flickr persuaded me.) Not sure which I'll do first, probably Sandbox pants for my twin boy and girl and then maybe more pyjamas for my big 3 year old boy.

Would love to hear what other people are up to who are new to sewing. x
