@ldk237 I understand. We all put so much effort into our sewing. We deserve to show it off and say “Look what I made!” A headless pic is a good idea and keeps some anonimity. And I agree modelled pics are better. It is an individual choice but I am glad you are coming around to the idea of joining in and posting your photos.

@ldk237 don’t feel bad, I was late to the party also. Some ladies have been experiencing some scary security issues on Flickr, so if you do start a flickr account, this is a heads up. May I give you a little advice? To avoid possible things happening to photos containing the children you sew for, I would increase the security on those modelled…[Read more]

@ldk237 do you have an instagram account? I have noticed lots of ladies seem to be posting their things on instagram also, if this is any help. We would love to see your sewing. The items above are just gorgeous.

@ldk237 I especially love the heart one, it’s lovely. What was the fabric you used? Have you added the pictures to the oliver + s flickr pool? It’s a great place to be inspired by what others have done with the patterns, and to inspire others with your gorgeous outfits.

I can’t believe Easter is only at the end of March! I have something lacey and heirloomish (is this a word?) planned. But the time has to permit!
@roundtheworldgirl the plans for your son’s outfits for both wedding and Easter sound really gorgeous. I hope they come together easily for you.

Sew Alongs 10 years ago@mariajsanroman was it the extra bulk when you came to the French seams when you were hemming that made it more difficult? If so, try clipping away part of the French seams near the hem (but not too much) so that when you are hemming there will be less bulk and make it easier to hem. Hope that helps!

I can see where he gets the required authenticity label from – handmade in renaissance period and definitely not hired or bought online – unless if it was claimed from the property of another during a take over maybe?
Sometimes the time gets away from us and the ideas we have just have to be replaced with simpler versions.

dubhels2003 started the topic Seam finishes when overlaying with tulle in the forum oliver + s: garden party 10 years ago
I’m making a garden party in slinky lilac/blue synthetic fabric, which I have overlaid with a nylon lilac/blue tulle. I have cut the tulle longer than the dress. I have sewn the dress by treating the tulle and fabric as one throughout. Due to the tricky nature of the fabric, which frays A LOT, I was planning to do french seams.
I’m close to…[Read more]

@thejennigirl how did the costume go?
I have almost finished the culottes. i have had many interruptions and disruptions that have put the sewing on the back burner. I just have the waistband facings to stitch down and they’re done.
