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 11 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)

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 11 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 11 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 11 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 11 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!
Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 11 years ago

Yes, I was wondering about that myself. Rachel (@nestfullofeggs), maybe it’s better to add a new post for each day of the sew-along? I think the updates get lost otherwise. In other words, maybe each day of the sew-along should be a reply to the post instead of modifying the original post? Do you think that would be better, @georgeandizzy?

You’re welcome Fiona!Thanks for your lovely comment.
Nicole replied to the topic Long sleeves? in the forum oliver + s: garden party 11 years ago

I have been trying to answer but had locked myself out!

I would try laying one sleeve over the other.

I love making mens shirts Ellen.

Nearly finished Beatrix’s sewing turn and then on to Matilda.

Time to glue the Carnival PDF together.
