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

Nicole replied to the topic Which pattern size should I get? in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 8 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)

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

@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.

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]
