The Kaffe Fassett shot cottons make lovely play shirts. They only need the lightest of ironing once made up.

If you are finding it hard to get a nice turn, try basting a turning guide with a long stitch (#4). This will no only give you an accurate fold line but will gently ease the fabric.
If it is not enough ease, you can gather the stitches, just a bee’s whisker. -

Hallo Lovelies!
May I ask anyone who has sewn this groovy little number, how it fits?
I want to make one for Tildy (6) but the bucket hat is too small for her so I am wondering if I should size up to the large (7-10 years).Thank you in anticipation.

Nicole replied to the topic your wish list in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 9 years ago
After making Tildy some dungarees I would like to bump @Helena’s suggestion of a dungarees/overalls/romper/playsuit pattern.

I am so sorry, I can’t see the problem.
Does the underarm side seam match up? -
Nicole replied to the topic Late Lunch Tunic – short sleeves? in the forum liesl + co: late lunch tunic 9 years ago
I think your fabric choice is the key to that decision.
Both sew up beautifully in a draping fabric (wool, silk) but I think the Late Lunch is a bee’s whisker more flattering in a firmer woven (linen, chambray)I wonder if the collar doesn’t look a bit snappier in a woven too.
Just my opinion, of course.

Sew Alongs 9 years agoThat’s a great idea, Brittney! That way you get the reminder that it’s been updated but it all stays in one place. Thanks for the suggestion. And I hope the flatlock works out! I think it’s nice to have that seam stitched down somehow, and the straight stitch works but the flatlock is fancier!

Sew Alongs 9 years agoYes, I was wondering about that myself. Rachel (@nestfullofeggs), maybe it’s better to add a new post for each day of the sew-along? I think the updates get lost otherwise. In other words, maybe each day of the sew-along should be a reply to the post instead of modifying the original post? Do you think that would be better, @georgeandizzy?
