@withloveHeidi, we suspect she is also a little stressed oyt with everything that is on her plate. We are seeking help for the things she needs help with though and the staff are so good in the fact that we don’t need to think negativeky. They are genuinely interested in her wellbeing, not like at the last school.
Update on my darling hubby, we…[Read more]

Tamara replied to the topic Easter/spring sewing? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 8 years ago
I’ve only just realised I haven’t smocked anything for Chloë apart from the school days jacket and the carousel dress. Of course I am planning to use smocking in the Easter dress. Being currently away from home, the plans are halted somewhat but the mind is still buzzing with ideas.
The male members of my family are still going to have shirts…[Read more]

with love Heidi replied to the topic Stupid things I've done while sewing O&S patterns in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 8 years ago
I was trying to line the lullaby layette pants but no now I need to unpick 🙁
Stupid thing 1: sewed while tired and feeling slightly unwell
Stupid thing 2: sewed after 9pm at night
Stupid thing 3: did not stop after making first mistake!
Stupid thing 4: not checking I could turn them through once pinned
Result: endless loop of pants and lining…[Read more] -

That waterfall neckline sounds interesting, I would like to see it. I discover I like waterfall cardigans after making the Swoon one last year.
I’m finally adding elastic to the waists of 2 pairs of denim layette pants. I feel like I haven’t sewn much in the last week or so, hoping to get back to it this weekend. -

So glad to hear she’s enjoying school, Tamara!
I also didn’t see the maintenance notification, this is the first time e I’ve been able to find the site in over a week. Although I was able to see this forum once during the week on my phone so I knew what was going on,even there I couldn’t get the new site the next day.
It’s good to be back 🙂 -

Here you go: https://oliverands.com/shop/sketchbook-shirt-shorts-sewing-pattern.html#tab-errata
You might want to have a peek at the older threads about this pattern. Folks who want a tuck-in style shirt often add some length, and there’s discussion there about how much to add for which size.
I don’t know whether there’s been a second printing…[Read more]

Todd Gibson replied to the topic Searching the forums in the forum about the forums 8 years ago
@rose-may the site has been extensively redesigned since that post was published six years ago.
You’ll now find a search box at the top-left of the page right under the Oliver + S logo. That will let you search the whole site–not just the forums–for results.

The sewing machines are coming on holiday with me! The playsuit was mucked up as I attached the front to the back pieces and totally forgot about the shoulder pieces! I think I threw the scraps out and I realised I didn’t cut all the facing pieces.
I am going to try and get some more of this print as the shorts side of the playsuit were all…[Read more]

I botched a Briar t shirt today😕. Will have to try again. I have printed out the metro tee pattern (again) and will lengthen this to a dress and use it with the magenta knit with little sequins, in a bid to have something Taylor Swift would wear for a themed dinner on Wednesday night. This will be a size medium for the eldest girl.

Thanks @todd for this helpful information. From what I can gather, needlewoman2 has been off for a good while and I think it would have been something different, possibly related to her computer perhaps. I am not sure but I will pass on the information you have provided above, in the hope that it does improve the issue for her.
