So I finally ordered the pattern – I got the smaller size that her measurements actually correspond to rather than being cheap and trying to alter a size 5 so I have the pattern until she gets to middle school! I’m going to make a version in some very lovely green and white seersucker (which I know she will hate!) for size and then go from there.…[Read more]

@mama_knowles you have to go to a particular section – like Sewing With Oliver + S – or whatever – then you can create a new topic

Not sure if this will be of any help? http://fiveandcounting-motherof5.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/a-christmas-fairy-tale-tutorial-part-i.html?showComment=1358649417151

Have a peep if you like.

My absolute pleasure, can’t wait to see what you do!

And

Here you are @SC

Thank you @justsewit , a new lens prescription and the advice to keep an eye on her. No drops today but I can understand your little mans reluctance, the Twins said they do sting a bit.

@dubhels2003 I am sorry for her. I can remember Chicken Pox and bathing with a calico sachet of oats in the water.

I love what this clever girl has done

The elegant colours with the white hem and white pocket tops. Just lovely!

Awesome Heidi. You are a brick!

I have not made this gorgeous dress with the sleeves but I will try and help. My apologies if I am not much use.

When the sleeves are cut, you should have two, mirrored, if you placed your pattern on the fabric, double layered, right sides together.

The notches would be invaluable here so that you can determine front and back.

If it was me, I…[Read more]
