This denim it just will not stretch
When I wear it I feel I must wretch
Nicole replied to the topic The Limerick Thread in the forum off topic 8 years ago

The season for sewing has changed
My skirts and I are estranged
But my jackets and coats
Are garnering votes
Time for clothing, to be, exchanged.

I just want to sit down and sew!
Nicole replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 8 years ago

I finished my turn on the #sewingrota on a high with some gorgeous back jeans for me!
Three pairs of jeans, a denim shirt and four tee’s were a much needed injection of clothing in my wardrobe.

Now I am on to formal sewing, Zara’s first. Some gorgeous Gatsby inspired sequinned tulle.
Nicole replied to the topic Making a t shirt dress from the metro-t in the forum liesl + co: metro t-shirt 8 years ago

Watch your sleeve cap, it may need a little pinched from it, it is easy to do after sewing.
I ave found (with a longer tee/tee dress) you can get some odd things happen at the shoulder due to the extra weight of the extra fabric.

Hello @cammipatterson, I am so glad you have joined!

Liesl’s patterns are just so good, you will learn a lot and be so pleased with your results.

@sewgirl23
I think the 2+2 would be gorgeous. Just under the tie, instead of the tab.
ASM Blue did a gorgeous Ice Cream blouse. I would use gingham, so I could stitch the squares, rather then pleat.

I still love French knots.

I think simple smocking looks cleaner and more modern.

That’s a good idea — I read much more than I comment, or I get busy but bookmark things for future use — but it must seem like radio silence from the other end!
Todd Gibson replied to the topic Question about sending private messages in the forum about the forums 8 years ago

I was able to change the title of the post.
Sarvi replied to the topic Question about sending private messages in the forum about the forums 8 years ago

Hm, good question! I assumed as the thread starter you’d have an edit button somewhere, but perhaps I have made an ASS of U and ME as the old saying goes.
Sarvi replied to the topic Lisette B6358 Swimsuit Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 8 years ago

May Grey (and its buddy, June Gloom) are weird patches of overcast skies that come along between Spring and Summer here in Los Angeles. You’ve been having a nice time hiking in April, then you lose the blue skies (but oddly enough, not the penetrating heat of the sun — so if you look outside you’ll want to grab a sweater, but then you open your…[Read more]
Sarvi replied to the topic Lisette B6358 Swimsuit Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 8 years ago

Those are really nice, I like the cut a lot particularly on the bottoms. That’s something I can wear. I am still looking for the right fabric — and sewing time — but would love to get a pair done by the time May Grey is over in Los Angeles.
Sarvi replied to the topic Question about sending private messages in the forum about the forums 8 years ago

Tamara, could I suggest editing the title of this thread to read “question about sending private messages” or similar as it appears Leslie might have mistaken this for a private conversation between the two of you.
Sarvi replied to the topic Sizing question in the forum oliver + s: popover 8 years ago

Looks like the Popover Dress size chart lists garment measurements rather than body measurements. Looking at the body measurement chart for another pattern, 22.5″ puts you in a size 4 — so it sounds like your cute dress with the size 6 chest can accommodate any surprise growth spurts this summer and perhaps take you through winter as well, with a…[Read more]
Sarvi replied to the topic Merino source in the forum off topic 8 years ago

I have bought from the Fabric Store and the quality is fabulous. I wonder whether Rockywoods would have anything suitable?
Todd Gibson replied to the topic The Limerick Thread in the forum off topic 8 years ago

I can’t decide which is my size
Do I go by my waist or my thighs?
I could measure my head
Todd Gibson replied to the topic spring 2015 patterns – when?? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 8 years ago

You can think of the book that will be out in September as one gigantic, huge Oliver + S pattern. Or a large number of Oliver + S patterns.

But that’s all I’m saying for now….

Why don’t you colour block and cut the 2 for the top and then make it wider, gradually, with a bit of trimming as you go?
