What a great topic, thank you @emilyg

This is near to my heart as it is my 7 year olds sewing turn next.

The size will determine my answer @frances-suzanne
Up to size 2T, yes. After that I found it perfect.

Nicole replied to the topic Which pattern size should I get? in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 9 years ago

@lightningmcstitch is correct. This is one pattern that needs to fit well in the girth. Get the smaller size.

(And make a muslin bodice)

Nicole replied to the topic Help finding this coat pattern! in the forum off topic 9 years ago

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

@with-love-heidi, what is your browser History? 😉
Too funny.

I am thinking shorts with singlet tops as pjs @etc3 does it each year so well.
Nicole replied to the topic 'Big' Cake Recipes in the forum Cooking and Baking 9 years ago

Thank you @liesl Gibson , I will, it was a lot of fun.

My favourite moment was one of the uncles dragging Hugo’s old go-cart up and down the track with passenger after passenger while 30 odd whooping children ran after them, like a noisy parade.

The no gifts/bring a salad worked beautifully. The mix of delicious food was wonderful and we ate the…[Read more]
Nicole replied to the topic Where to add length in the forum liesl + co: everyday skirt 9 years ago

I have never lengthened a skirt that much Charlene but I would consider adding length in two places. I would divide the the panel into thirds and add the length at these lines.
Does that make sense? So you don’t end up with too exaggerated an A-line.

It is a lovely skirt.
Nicole replied to the topic 'Big' Cake Recipes in the forum Cooking and Baking 9 years ago

Thank you all so much for your advice and help. I made the cake and saved a small fortune!

@Ann-Maree, I used your excellent idea of two cakes. Whilst Hugo and Co were making speeches and ‘cutting the cake’ a good friend and I were cutting and plating up the other cake, close by.
By the time speeches were done, cake was ready to be eaten.

Thank you!
Nicole replied to the topic Holiday Wear and Pajama linky party 2015 in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 9 years ago

I have a lot of Christmas sewing planned, whether I get there is another thing.
Is it just me or does ‘linky party’ bug anyone else? Even my Macbook doesn’t want to type it.

Link up party, maybe?
Nicole replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 9 years ago

Hello Lovelies, so nice to read that people are sewing.

Tilly received a last minute 6th Birthday invite and the little girls mother asked me to sew something so nicely, I couldn’t say no. She requested something ‘Kardashian’ style and it took a wee bit of research (by the Twins) to find out that there is a children’s label.

Luckily, I had a…[Read more]

Well done, you should feel very proud.
katybellabug replied to the topic 'Big' Cake Recipes in the forum Cooking and Baking 9 years ago

@motherof5 Nicole, yes I found it in the ‘free from’ section of my supermarket along with all the other special diet ingredients. I know it is in health food shops as well.
I really enjoyed the cake and didn’t miss the sugar. My husband said it wasn’t sweet enough for him. But he has 3 sugars in his tea and sugar on his cereal so his expectations…[Read more]
