Very productive day 🙂
Art Museum Vest – finished
Appleton dress – finished
Jalie Bella dress – started
Jalie onesie – cut, ready to go for my nephew tomorrow
It was rather frustrating when the coverstitch machine are the Jalie Bella sleeves.Thankfully I have enough to recut them although I’m considering adding pink sleeves and backhand as it’s a…[Read more]

I’d go with Nicole’s recommendation. Although I sew for many children they have all been long and skinny so I haven’t had to do any experience sewing for overweight kids.

Thanks Cybele for the clarification 🙂 Planning my first mashup. Class picnic top meets swing set skirt with shirring on the back, extra puffy sleeves and petals as an oversight! The dress was designed by my 7 year old niece. And a she would like a bonnet to go with it 🙂

I would add to the back as well

@withloveheidi-

Mash up- must be substantially one or more oliver and s patterns?

So other patterns would be ok.

I mean I have a dress from McCalls with jumprope pockets. That’s not much of and O + s pattern mash up. 🙂

But I am open to group rule!

I finally finished my monochrome project!
Black pinstripe Art Museum Vest lined with red silk!

Oh, dresses with matching boomers are so cute!
Art Museum finished and put in the flicker pool. Now onto hemming my dress 🙂

For who knows what reason I am unable to view flickr (arrgh!) but yes, it should be vvvvvvvvvvv rather than >>>>>>>>>

Nothing to add to Nicole’s excellent advice, but good luck, I’m sure both the kid and the parents will be delighted to have a special, pretty dress!

I have a 4 day long weekend! I hope today I can finish off the Art Museum vest and hem my Appleton dress. And maybe make a Jalie Bella dress. I hope over this weekend I might be able to finish off my nieces quilt, it’s the last one of 4 tops I made nearly 5 years ago.
And tomorrow I get to help my nephew sew I himself a new onesie!

Just wondering about the definition of a mashup. Is it limited to combining 2 or more Oliver and S patterns or can it also include changing up an Oliver and S pattern and combining an Oliver and S pattern with another pattern.
I hope and suspect that all these options are fine as we are a generous and relaxed community, but I thought I’d just check 🙂
