It’s sort of to take over from the ill fated music class shirt – which will be looked at and hopefully correctly completed soon. I made a pair of pink playtime leggings and the liberty pepler will go with it so there is another outfit sorted.
I don’t feel like sewing corduroy at the moment. The weather is just too hot! Everywhere else in…[Read more]

I have decided to try a hide and seek tunic from the liberty pepper. So I have cut one out, sort of, and intend on sewing it up by the end of the week.

Sew Alongs 11 years agoHeidi, I feel better knowing I am not alone in the fold/unfold the placket issue!
Brittney, did you wash and steam the neck before adding the collar back on to see if it would rebound/fit? Or was this after?
I think I am going to cut a a larger sized collar in muslin and see if it fits. I just can’t figure out what I did wrong. But as I will…[Read more]

I’m with @Inder–use it or trim and yokes and details and you’ll get lots of mileage out of it! But I love @with-love-heidi‘s list! Can’t wait to see it.

Sew Alongs 11 years agoI messed up on my first one too and had to unpick:) I threw mine through the wash and steamed the neck with an iron. It seemed to help. On both sizes I made, I clipped the collar just a bit in the front to help ease it in.

Sew Alongs 11 years agoSo I am hoping for some help here.
When I was attaching the collar, I sewed both the front (button hole) placket and the back (button) placket folded back. That worked for the front, but obviously not the button one which needs to be NOT folded back behind the main fabric.
As I was pinning, I remembered thinking wow, the neckline is much…[Read more]

Did you see Liesl’s recent tutorial on the blog?
adding pockets to the parachute sweatpants (and the butterfly skirt)
Not sure this is exactly what you want, but it could be a starting point.

@kookiblah a Lazy Days skirt, a 2T or 3T Popover Sundress (at least the main part of the dress), I’m wondering about the Seashore Bloomers, all of the O+S doll clothes, hair accessories.
