Yes, I’ve reserved the smaller sized Art Museum from same site. ” my” little boys are finally getting big enough for proper trousers, and at least one likes wearing vests. Looking forward to buying the Lunchbox culottes, too. I have a watching brief for O+S patterns on ebay but it keeps alerting me to stuffed scarecrows, and vintage patterns, as…[Read more]

I wonder if you could add elastic to the back waistband for some ease?
That would be awesome for my 6 child waist line.

I agree, I am starting from scratch with Beatrix’s wardrobe. It is great fun and surprising how few ‘outfits’ she actually needs.
Love this thread!

Oh, those are wonderful — a bit of neutral really makes the bright colors pop, doesn’t it? Some folks are so great at mixing up patterns (like Nele), but when I get inspired and try it myself I think each pattern gets a bit lost in the others.

The culottes are designed to sit at the natural (or actual) waist, and I do think they look better worn that way. I tend to wear most pants and jeans lower on the waist, but I would encourage you to wear these higher.

Oh, I’d forgotten this thread – thanks for ressurecting it Sarvi.
I adore that Paddington outfit – think I favourited every pic of it. Such perfect details.
The three piece set is fab too – have you seen her adult tees (same Liberty….gorgeous) (& sorry – no link – on phone so too hard – but they’re in the Liesl&Co group)

Maybe we need a sew along for knock offs of each other’s work? It is pretty special that set.

Thanks Lightning! I just ordered the larger Hide and Seek and Garden party as well as the Lullaby Layette 🙂

Oooh, Bistro sew-a-long, please! I printed mine off yesterday.

Yes, we could do a sew-along! You may need to give me a little time to prepare for that. We’ve got the School Days Jacket coming up next month, and then the holidays will be upon us, but maybe in January? We’d also like to do a Bistro Dress sew-along.
