    With the May weather though you will be heading into Summer right? That will mean lots of little bloomer pants – cool comfortable and very simple to swap over. The layette pattern is truly and fantastic pattern – and it came at a very fortunate time.

    I am onto the final bubble today and will hopefully also get the chance to cut out the puppet…[Read more]

    Thankyou ladies! This one will have mummy made things from day one.

    I did the buttonholes and the buttons on the little white bubble this morning before the usual Saturday run around (and I was treated to lunch by the hubby as a belated birthday and a thanks to our worker for helping this harvest which incidentally has quite completed for us). So…[Read more]

    Honeymadeit thankyou! There is a nice little collection happening but it isn’t quite done yet. I have five items to sew up and only six 0-3 month tags left!! I have ordered more so that I can add them onto garments that won’t get one straight away. It will help when sleep deprived and trying to dress a wee one.

    Yesterday I got going on the latest…[Read more]

  • Those pieces are amazing!

    Oh where has the day gone? I was in town at school until just before lunch at the primary school graduation (yes it was my Imogen’s turn). Then I fell asleep after lunch and dragged myself into a standing position to go and cut out the white bubble dress – which I have just done. And now it is time to go to the school bus!

    The kids want to put…[Read more]

  • Tamara replied to the topic Fabric choices in the forum oliver + s: sleepover 9 years ago

    Maybe pick a common colour to use in both and go from there. Maybe do one with the main fabric a spot with the trim striped and reverse the combo for the other pair. Of course they don’t have to use the exact same fabrics but it would be fun to see them done this way with a coordinating colour to tie it all in.

    Didn’t get to cut out the bubble dress this morning and only arrived home shortly before the school bus. So we have been busy prepping to put up the Christmas tree all afternoon since.

    I want to put a full day of sewing in both tomorrow and Friday though. All these doctors appointments have me away from the machine too many times but they are as…[Read more]

  • Tamara replied to the topic Lullaby pants in knit in the forum oliver + s: lullaby 9 years ago

    Ok thanks. I am figuring they would be good to do a baby sweat pant type thing but it is summer here so I won’t be doing anything of the sort at least five months. I was thinking of jersey or something similar that is lighter so will have a play I think and see how it goes.

  • Just wondering if anyone has made the pants with a knit fabric? How did they go? I am thinking of making a couple for a newborn and work from there.

    Haha! I was wondering how that one would go.

    It is raining outside today
    A perfect chance to fabric play

  • I have the press thingy – its green. But they are a cinch to put in with it. The only thing is you have to just keep changing the knobs and of course they come in sized sets. I use the 16’s on the layette things I have made and they work just fine. But the original intention was to make my own nappies (and I haven’t even started yet!)

  • I have been using the KAM one and they seem to be fine. Except they are a pain if you put them in the wrong way!
