Nicole replied to the topic Step 6 in the forum oliver + s: music box 10 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 10 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.

Two more.

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!

Hmmm, I still can’t see them. I shot you an e-mail.
Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 10 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!
Brittney replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 10 years ago

I like the tip for the fake flatlock. My first pair I used a straight stitch and didn’t love it as much so I left it off the other pairs, I think I will give this a try.
Brittney replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 10 years ago

@Liesl, maybe? I do like the way it flows when it’s all together, though. Or keep modifying and add a comment when it is posted?
Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 10 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?

Brittney replied to the topic Parachute Sweatpants Sew Along in the forum Sew Alongs 10 years ago

@Liesl The only thing I can think of, is that you would have to remember to come and check every day. Because @nestfullofeggs modifies the post, which seems the right thing to do since it flows and wouldn’t be interrupted by comments/discussion, it doesn’t refresh the topic on the main page.
Brittney replied to the topic Hey, what's wrong here? in the forum about the forums 10 years ago

When I click to view ‘all forums’ I can only see to the Forest Path, but when I use the drop down menu I can see them all. I wasn’t sure if anyone else noticed this.

You’re welcome Fiona!Thanks for your lovely comment.
Nicole replied to the topic Long sleeves? in the forum oliver + s: garden party 10 years ago

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

I would try laying one sleeve over the other.
Brittney replied to the topic Step 6 in the forum oliver + s: music box 10 years ago

I found you on FB, but didn’t see any pics of the outfit. Maybe check your privacy settings on those photos and make them public? Then if you’d like I can grab them from there and bring them here for you.
Tamara replied to the topic Long sleeves? in the forum oliver + s: garden party 10 years ago

I read Nicole’s tute and she measured Tilly’s arms to make them. I was wondering how the music class sleeve bottom would look with it. I was planning to use the garden party sleeve cap just to save fitting headaches.
Tamara replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

I’m afraid I can’t help with the playtime question Fiona, as I haven’t made that one (or have I?) – it would have had serious alterations if I did and I know I used a knit and a woven for one pattern but as to whether it was that particular one, I simply cannot remember. I would think it would be roomier with a knit though”

I think cutting out…[Read more]

Tamara started the topic Long sleeves? in the forum oliver + s: garden party 10 years ago

I’ve seen a few versions of this dress featuring long sleeves but I am slightly confused. Was the short sleeved lengthened? Or was another sleeve used! And if so which?

I’d like to make a long sleeved version for my baby girl.
