How is this format working for everyone? We thought it would be nice to give the sew-alongs a home where they’ll be easy to find, especially if you have questions about the pattern. Plus, it frees up the blog for other exciting things!

Nicole posted about her lengthened trousers here:

And agree with Cat75 – good point about crotch length
Lightning McStitch replied to the topic How to adjust sizes in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

Good point by Cat75 and who wants to go mucking around with altering crotch rises and seat length, not me.
Nicole replied to the topic How to adjust sizes in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

I concur
I over altered the Field Trip cargoes for my daughter and lost a lot of hip room , they are okay but it did spoil the patten some what
I did lengthen the Art Museum trousers for my tall skinny girl very successfully adding length to the waist and the ankle
( I just checked , size 7 with a length of 12)
I guess as long as the hips are…[Read more]
Lightning McStitch replied to the topic How to adjust sizes in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

From memory they’re a straight-ish leg so you would get away with length added to the hem.
I’d be nervous about sizing down 3 sizes from his age. The spot where these pants are the slimmest is the lower hips / upper thigh area and they would have the potential to really pull across the crotch/upper thigh if you went too small.

beachmom replied to the topic How thin is too thin for knits? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

I’m like Masha…I prefer cotton/lycra knits when I sew for the kids. It’s relatively easy to work with and seems to hold up well. My personal rule of thumb is to use 8-10 oz. weight fabrics for tops and dresses. 🙂
Tamara replied to the topic Who wants to sew the Oliver + S skirts with me and win?? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

I have just finished a 2+2 skirt, the first for me but I have had this pattern for quite a while, just didn’t have a little girl to fit into the size range.

Next I have a hot pink hopscotch.
Tamara replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

I have just completed my second skirt for the challenge. It happens to be a first for me though as I haven’t had a proper opportunity to try out the 2+2 pattern. I forgot to add a tag though so I suppose I will have to find a suitable spot.

I used a really pretty piece of pink pinwale corduroy. Thank goodness for remnant pieces and small sized…[Read more]
