Our friend, Brittney, is here to walk us through how to sew the Puppet Show Shorts. This originally appeared on the blog as part of the Size 5 Project.

We all know how great Liesl’s instructions are. They are what taught me to sew, so we will be following them to the letter. Sometimes it helps to have photographs, though, and sew-alongs…[Read more]

On phone please excuse grammar
As long as this does not leave the sleeve cap and under arm too tight
How about two back French darts at the back , below the shoulders and darting the centre back of the sleeve ?

I have finally finished my daughters vintage pattern trench coat. (Happy dance)

I am looking forward to sewing her twin’s Lisette Moto jacket. Far less fabric to negotiate.

Sewing friends sure are the best
Better than all of the rest
They’re there every time

Oh thank heavens. Fingers crossed he continues to improve and you’re able to sort out what on earth happened. So, so glad to hear you’re surrounded with help!

Thank you ladies. We are fortunate to have very good support – so many people have brought food that we don’t have room in our refrigerator. And I have lots of help with the children. I am trying to balance spending time with them and being at the hospital, as my husband is sad when I leave. My in-laws are here so we are taking shifts.

Really sorry not be able to help more!!
Sarvi replied to the topic After School Pants Pattern Issues in the forum oliver + s: after-school 10 years ago

Sorry, I don’t know where that 6 came from — “lower side panel” is number 10 for me as well.

For 10+11 I got 20 5/8″ as well, along the longer edge (right edge of the pattern piece, with the double notches. For piece 9 I’m getting 20 1/16″, so 3/8″ difference — but I’m having to sort of eyeball where the stitching line is for the long edge…[Read more]

Also, I am not the world’s foremost authority on addition and subtraction with fractions 🙂
Sarvi replied to the topic After School Pants Pattern Issues in the forum oliver + s: after-school 10 years ago

Hm, mine seem to be adding up, but I’m not confident I’m measuring the same bit where you’re having trouble. It’s your piece 8, “pants front” that’s half an inch shorter than the combined pieces 6 and 11, “lower side panel” and “upper side panel”?
