I was making a 6. I checked to make sure that I cut a 6 collar and 6 parts. It is super weird. One thing I figured out is that I needed to reverse which side was folded back and which side was open. That at least made the seam to front necklines equal at 3.5 inches give or take some “ease.”

I cut a 12 muslin and that will fit for this one.…[Read more]

I commented on flickr too, but what size are you making? I made the 12, 18 and 4 (have a 7 cut) and depending on the stretch of my knit I had to ease the collar. On a few of them I clipped just a tiny bit (like 2-3 notches) of the collar on the front sides, the back was fine on all of them. The notches are especially helpful on this one.

Congrats Heidi!!

Ok. I am going to beg for more help here. I tried the wash and dry thing. No help. The collar is too short by approximately the extra added on by the placket. I checked and I cut the same size pattern pieces. (Lol).

If you go to Flickr I posted a picture of a drawing.

Any advice is welcome. I am likely going to cut a…[Read more]

I’m having a laugh at the “below 18”, I don’t think we had one day this week where the maximum was 15 let alone 18 🙂 (temperature conversion for USA 18C=64.4F 15C=59F)
I’ve been working on the WIP box again today. I finished one pair of PJ pants, 3 shirred dolls skirts and one dress up cape. I also discovered the second box is at least half…[Read more]

Oh wow, so exciting!
Yes, I have now replied to you. I had to go and find the private messages. Looking forward to sewing up my new patterns 🙂

I’ve a few things in my mending pile, boys are so hard on their knees! I have one pair of synthetic trackies with holes where he’s managed to melt the fabric! It must have been some impressive slides on the floor 🙂
Nicole, I don’t mind mending if I’ve got good company to talk to while I do it 🙂

katybellabug started the topic Has anyone added extra booty room? in the forum oliver + s: class picnic 10 years ago

I have just made up a pair of size 10 picnic shorts and after trying them on her, they are a little snug around the bottom.
Otherwise the fit is fine.
I made them from a stretch woven but it still too tight.

I am not sure how to alter them, should I just slash and spread (which is my usual method) and if I do, where? and how do I alter the…[Read more]

Thanks Nicole 🙂 I got quite a few things finished today. The pram liner, a pullover from before I found Oliver and S, a purple panne velvet cape and I turned a small piece of Christmas patchwork and an off cut of towel into a trivet/hot pad!

Yes I made it and it worked fine. I ended up using silk dupioni for the yoke. https://www.flickr.com/photos/23557464@N03/8260534376/in/dateposted-public/
