Nicole, the instructions for the blazer would be quite involved, but the grading would be a nightmare! Maybe someday, but I need to rest my brain after writing that book. (Which is why I just jumped into writing some very detailed Liesl + Co patterns for fall, apparently???)

Can’t wait to see how the blazer turned out!

I have the one sold in the O+S store, I use it all the time.

I finished my sons blazer, finally. It was a big sew. I now know why Liesl is not keen to make a kiddy size pattern…

Next, jeans for me!

@rebecca, it is much faster then a household machine and far more powerful.
It will sew a buttonhole on anything, even canvas (I am talking about tarp canvas).

It has a range of stitches, just like a domestic one.

I adore it.

Yes, that was the message that was sent to several members here on the forums. Sorry, again, for the inconvenience.

Really cute, @constainia!

Practice the dart with some scraps before you sew it! You might want a little stabilizer, too, depending on your fabric.

I think it depends on your fabric, too. But yes, if you have a 4″ difference between your high and regular bust measurements, I’d think you’ll probably want to do a FBA.

I’m working on a peplum top from this pattern right now. I’m using a very drapey woven fabric, so I’ve gone up 4 sizes to get an oversized look. But I think if I had a fuller…[Read more]

Wow, @sewgirl23, that DOES look like it was a challenge. And it turned out beautifully!

Hey, that looks great! I’m impressed.

Excellent, I look forward to seeing yours (and sewing this one up too).

So very excited. We sign on a city flat for our Biggies today.
We had always planned to send out chaps away for years 11+12 but our local school is just so excellent, there was no need. The money we have saved for fees has made a good deposit on the flat.

It is very central and close to good public transport (and University)and a gym plus the…[Read more]
