Jane started the topic Flutter Sleeve in the forum oliver + s: bedtime story 8 years ago

Do you think it would be possible to change the sleeve to a flutter sleeve?

P is having her tonsils out and I wanted to make her a comfy pair of PJ’s to wear afterwards. She can be quite sensitive about fit and fabrics w/o having undergone surgery. I think she might be more comfortable w/ a flutter sleeve than the traditional kimono…[Read more]

We, as a family, are going to be characters from Big Hero 6. P will be Honey Lemon, my son, Zach will be Hiro, hubby will be BayMax and somehow it got voted that I be Go Go Tomago. I bought a black unitard (and some extra spanx to wear under it). I bought some red F.O.E. To add the red detail onto the costume, I’m just not sure what the best way…[Read more]

@juliamom2009 I found this pic of word girl, I would say the yellow piece is definitely her cape.
Jane replied to the topic Adding Mock Turtleneck in the forum oliver + s: school bus t-shirt 9 years ago

@lightningmcstitch thank you. That was the idea I had, but sometimes idea and execution end up working out differently. 😉

Does anyone have suggestions for adding a mock turtleneck? I have ideas but not sure if they’ll work in execution.

Oh my, did you see the darling smocked outfit Prince George wore to Princess Charlotte’s christening. So sweet.

Jane started the topic Unwanted Fabric. What to do? in the forum off topic 9 years ago

What do you do w/ your unwanted fabric?

I’m in the process of cleaning and consolidating my sewing room. It had kinda got out of hand (again). Over the years, I’ve been given plenty of fabrics, but most of it isn’t suitable for my needs. I also have plenty of larger scraps but the cuts aren’t nearly enough to make a garment. I don’t have any…[Read more]
Jane replied to the topic RTW Alteration? in the forum off topic 9 years ago

@motherof5 thank you. I have been looking at one of the dresses and thought darts might work. It’s a darling white eyelet sundress, so I’d really like for P to be able to get some wear put of it. I’ll have to be careful any chalk I use doesn’t show, but I’ll give it a go.

P is tall (90% for height). I have bought her a few sundresses for summer but in order to get them long enough I have to get her 6 or 6x. They are all too big around the chest, a lot too big. I have never done any alterations to a RTW garment, so before I start hacking at dresses I paid good money for, I’m looking for suggestions for the proper…[Read more]

Oh my goodness @Reeni, your little ones grew up so fast! Love the Playdate dress you made her! 🙂

@Reeni I can’t seem them either. 🙁

Oh my goodness Nicole, look at how little they were. They grow too fast. 🙁

Today was P’s last day of preschool. She did not have an O+S original for her last day, but she has worn a lot of O+S throughout the past two years. I am always so surprised when I see pictures of our little ones on Flickr and think “how did she/he get so big, weren’t they just a toddler.” Since it is nearing the end of the school year in the US,…[Read more]

Jane replied to the topic What do you think? Feedback welcome. in the forum Sewing for Yourself 9 years ago

The skirt is the pattern that I found most intriguing. I <3 skirts! I wear them almost exclusively in the summer. I like that it is a wrap skirt for ease, but the slit up the front concerns me. I, like a lot of women, am not comfortable with my thighs and fear this may show more than I am comfortable with. I know it can be lengthened, but at 5’4″…[Read more]

I’m really just looking for ideas of where to go and what to see/ do. We will be there June 12-15. I am running the Nike Women’s 15K on the 14th. I know nothing about the area. I have been Googling and reading as much about Toronto as I can. It’s just nice to learn insider knowledge from a local. 🙂

Just taking a shot in the dark, as I know O+S are loved worldwide, I was wondering if anyone here is from Toronto or nearby? We’ll be traveling up there in June.
