Sarvi replied to the topic Wedding Wardrobe Help? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

Is it important to you to make what you wear? Or are you open to buying something?

My plans have changed a bit as I realize now that I will be taking a train from Penn Station earlyish in the morning, arriving back there lateish in the evening, and won’t have a chance to change in between. Luckily, this friend is as unfussy as they come and I…[Read more]
Nicole started the topic Little Things To Sew Cozy Winter Hood-Sizing? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

Hallo Lovelies!

May I ask anyone who has sewn this groovy little number, how it fits?
I want to make one for Tildy (6) but the bucket hat is too small for her so I am wondering if I should size up to the large (7-10 years).

Thank you in anticipation.
Nicole replied to the topic your wish list in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

After making Tildy some dungarees I would like to bump @Helena’s suggestion of a dungarees/overalls/romper/playsuit pattern.

@DarcyStruble there was some discussion of how it could be done starting on this thread page: http://oliverands.com/community/forums/topic/your-wish-list/page/22
I fully intend to give this a go. I haven’t done it before but I think I’ve got my head around how it should work. I can do it for my next Oliver + S blog post. But that could mean about…[Read more]

And now the fifth and final day of the sew-along is up. It’s time to finish up those sweatpants!
Lightning McStitch replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

That’s a great idea @withloveHeidi and they will be great for afterwards when all is healed as sport track pants that she can put on without yet having to take shoes off. The pattern should be perfect.
I should make some waterproof over pants for my son’s ride to school in winter. Good thinking Heidi (again)

Sarvi replied to the topic Step 6 in the forum oliver + s: music box 10 years ago

I don’t think I see anything wrong, either. Could you rephrase “the top inner corners right sides and mine are sewed” — I’m afraid I don’t understand that part.
Nicole replied to the topic Step 6 in the forum oliver + s: music box 10 years ago

I am so sorry, I can’t see the problem.
Does the underarm side seam match up?
Nicole replied to the topic Late Lunch Tunic – short sleeves? in the forum liesl + co: late lunch tunic 10 years ago

I think your fabric choice is the key to that decision.
Both sew up beautifully in a draping fabric (wool, silk) but I think the Late Lunch is a bee’s whisker more flattering in a firmer woven (linen, chambray)

I wonder if the collar doesn’t look a bit snappier in a woven too.

Just my opinion, of course.
Frances Suzanne replied to the topic Late Lunch Tunic – short sleeves? in the forum liesl + co: late lunch tunic 10 years ago

Thanks so much for your help, Nicole! I am still floundering between the Late Lunch Tunic and the Cappuccino Tunic (ugh, decisions, decisions). . .THANK YOU!
Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 10 years ago

That’s a great idea, Brittney! That way you get the reminder that it’s been updated but it all stays in one place. Thanks for the suggestion. And I hope the flatlock works out! I think it’s nice to have that seam stitched down somehow, and the straight stitch works but the flatlock is fancier!
