The size will determine my answer @frances-suzanne
Up to size 2T, yes. After that I found in perfect.

Great clothes Fiona!

my sewing has just taken a turn I didn’t think it would for another year or so. My girls decided they wanted American Girl dolls for Christmas. This weekend I tried my hand at making some party dresses for them. I found a jumper pattern online that used to be sold by the company. It is very similar to the O+S Music Box…[Read more]

@Cathbe, the best way to determine whether you need the twill tape (which I would actually recommend even if you don’t “need” it) is to check the stretch from selvedge to selvedge. If it stretches or if the fabric is quite heady you’ll almost certainly want it. I hope that helps!

Hello, @filur! Here’s a post that I think will help to answer your questions. Note, especially, #2.

15 tips for fitting a muslin

Holler if you have any further questions about it, ok?
Nicole replied to the topic Which pattern size should I get? in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 10 years ago

@lightningmcstitch is correct. This is one pattern that needs to fit well in the girth. Get the smaller size.

(And make a muslin bodice)

Nicole replied to the topic Help finding this coat pattern! in the forum off topic 10 years ago

I would do as you suggest but sew one side of your collar to the jacket ( the under collar) and the upper collar to your facing/lining.

Then sew those together

Ah, that makes me so happy, @mychurchdoll! I’m headed to Paris in a few weeks–maybe I’ll get to wear mine, too! It’s been too warm here to wear it so far. Can’t wait to see photos, everyone! xo

And @sanitystitches, I completely understand the fear of heat with wool. I’ve found that the wool setting on the iron is absolutely perfect, and if you…[Read more]

@sarvi Yes, they take very little fabric. I had a couple of “diaper cuts” (slightly larger than fat quarters) of girly knit fabric lying around from when I was sewing cloth diapers for my girls years ago and I got two larger pairs out of one cut, and four of the smaller size out of the second cut!

@ock-du-spock CONGRATULATIONS! So exciting! When is the little bundle due? Will your lovely cloth diapers last? 🙂

I am currently sewing something I NEVER thought I would sew – underwear for my girls. I made a pair on a whim when I found a free pattern at smalldreamfactory. They did not fit right at all, which compelled me to try to alter the…[Read more]

@motherof5, I’d love to see the forget-me-not purse. My youngest sister’s boyfriend will be proposing to her sometime this month and I have saved the dress my mother wore to my and my other sister’s wedding. I want to make something out of it for her.

@with-love-heidi, what is your browser History? 😉
Too funny.

I am thinking shorts with singlet tops as pjs @etc3 does it each year so well.

Thank you @liesl Gibson , I will, it was a lot of fun.

My favourite moment was one of the uncles dragging Hugo’s old go-cart up and down the track with passenger after passenger while 30 odd whooping children ran after them, like a noisy parade.

The no gifts/bring a salad worked beautifully. The mix of delicious food was wonderful and we ate the…[Read more]
Nicole replied to the topic Where to add length in the forum liesl + co: everyday skirt 10 years ago

I have never lengthened a skirt that much Charlene but I would consider adding length in two places. I would divide the the panel into thirds and add the length at these lines.
Does that make sense? So you don’t end up with too exaggerated an A-line.

It is a lovely skirt.
