That is worth thinking about! Of course I don’t have any navy rugby knit in stock but might try it out with something else.

Oh, there are some patterns that should not be PDFs. Rain ponchos is now added to my list alongside men’s dressing gowns!

Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Invisible zipper in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 9 years ago
Once you’re happy with the zipper, and you’ve sewn the bottom skirt, you will stitch the extra zipper tape to the skirts seam allowance.
However with that much extra I’d be inclined to shorten the zipper a bit first. You need to handstitch round and round and round the teeth to create a new stopping point. Then cut the zipper an inch or two below…[Read more] -

I would wonder about a rugby knit for the main and a woven for the facing Katy….

I am so glad you got to sew Masha. We are all thinking of you here.
I finished Zara’s shirt and it looks lovely on her. I fiddled around with the fit, taking it in at the high waist, letting it out over her bottom and taking some fullness from the sleeve.
Next up, a grey linen skort, Simplicity 1370.

I finally got some time to sew on Friday night, so I made up two pairs of Playtime leggings (I think this brings my total to 15 or 16), a quick knit maxi skirt for my 4-year-old and some linen pacifier leashes for the baby. It felt so good to sew!

Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Step 1 – View A Front Skirt in the forum oliver + s: music box 9 years ago
This step is sewing the pleats. So long as you fold the fabric right sides together it doesn’t technically matter whether you hold it as in the picture (folded side on the left) or turn it upside down (folded side on the right).
If you flip it and have the fold on the right but the markings still at the top then it’s all still the same.
Just sew…[Read more] -

Lovely, thank you Nicole.
I have made them for PE and don’t want them to be too restrictive.
I will try it! -
Brittney replied to the topic Parachute Polo Sew Along in the forum
Sew Alongs 9 years agoI commented on flickr too, but what size are you making? I made the 12, 18 and 4 (have a 7 cut) and depending on the stretch of my knit I had to ease the collar. On a few of them I clipped just a tiny bit (like 2-3 notches) of the collar on the front sides, the back was fine on all of them. The notches are especially helpful on this one.
