Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years agoDon’t worry Deb, I’ve only just learned how to do it – really savvy me!
What about a pintucked feature down the side of a pair of trousers?

Lots of great reading and some great tips.
After quizzing my chiblings we worked out the most worn was this https://www.flickr.com/photos/motherof5/5444046339/in/set-72157625138776927
A Sailboat top in navy/white cotton lycra. Liddy is now wearing it after it was passed on to the Twins. -

*From memory* you will need to add maybe an inch or so to the top of the shorts?
I would add extra, sort of pin (with safety pins) the skirt and shorts together, and try them on the child.If you take out the placket, make sure the skirt will be wide enough to pull up.
I, very recently, added the Tea Party bloomers to the Hopscotch skirt, it…[Read more]

Nicole replied to the topic Fit on Sunday Brunch in the forum oliver + s: sunday brunch 11 years ago
I found the Sunday Brunch a fait-to-generous fit. I would not have layered it over a jumper (sweater) but my girls always got a good amount of wear from their corresponding size.
The added bonus is it looks really cute a little fitted.
(this is the 6-12 months on my 18…[Read more] -

I have a pair of Layette pants and a bodysuit pinned to some Lisette lisette ready to make into pyjamas for baby Chloe. Both are size 0-3 months.

Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years ago@FrancesSuzanne that sounds very exciting – proof that great minds are very much thinking alike here!
So how are you going to do them? Twin needle? Folded? Please not corded (I don’t know if this will work with a crosshatch). I haven’t done the crosshatch either but I am intrigued and can’t wait for all to be revealed.

This is a fun thread! Thanks for starting it, Nicole.:)
Hands down, the most worn O+S item in our house:
Patrick wore the shorts constantly the last 2 years. If they were clean (and sometimes when they weren’t!) he wore them.;)

I’ve made a beautiful midnight satin tea party dresse with matching shirred bloomers! It was so nice to just cut and sew!
I now have a lengthened playsuit cut out in green and black 🙂 -

Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years agoI was thinking about growth tucks in some of the rectangular skirt dresses, fairy tale, music box, playtime, garden party.

justsewit replied to the topic Using Tucks in O+S Patterns in the forum
Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years agoI have always thought the yoke on the playdate dress would lend itself well to pintucks sewn in a crosshatch design …. but then it lends itself well to all sorts of methods.
You could use tucks on the picnic top instead of gathers to see how that would work. Or make a feature panel on the library dress.
Deb, are you sure you don’t know how to…[Read more]

Happy birthday Liddy!
I finished up the last two pairs of Colette Iris shorts for me 5 mins before I walked out the door to school camp on Tuesday!
Now I’m back after 4 days away I’m going to sew up something Oliver and S! -

Sarvi posted an update in the group
Cooking and Baking 11 years agoMy stepmom got me a CostCo gift card for Christmas. This might sound like a weird gift, but actually, I loved it. There certain things I’m weirdly stingy about, like Swiffers and Magic Erasers. I now have a lifetime supply of those. I did sneak in a few non-practical items, like an ENORMOUS bag of shelled pistachios. As I discovered the last time…[Read more]

Such an interesting topic. What is it about certain garments that gets them so much wear, and others so little? Fabric is a big part of it, as mentioned above. I made an After School top in a very light cream cotton and piped the top — the body of it was so light that the shirt became top heavy and was always skewing off one shoulder. Then I made…[Read more]
