You are very welcome Becky.
There are several lovely ladies that sew for others as they have none of their own, here. So you are not alone!
Please, please share your photos in the flickr group.
I personally find if people pop up 2 or 3 pictures I am more likely to click on them then if they pop up half a dozen as they take so long to load with my…[Read more] -

Nicole replied to the topic Stay Stitching Alternatives? in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 9 years ago
It doesn’t matter too much if your stay stitching puckers a little. If you increase the stitch length you can ease it after sewing, anyway.
I am so glad you are using stay stitching. It will really add to the professional finish of your garment.
I would be nervous of glue, in case it went hard or got on my iron.
I agree with Sarvi, it is lovely to…[Read more] -

Nicole replied to the topic Bedtime Story pants vs Sleepover pants – yardage question in the forum oliver + s: bedtime story 9 years ago
I think they are pretty similar from my memory.
If your child is particularly skinny you *can* fold some width out of the pattern. I have done this but my daughter is very very skinny.
ETA I always have to open my fabric out to cut the bottoms. -

Here is my tute http://www.pinterest.com/pin/73676143878416947/, it is a great sew.
I would wonder if you sewed the shoulders seams and then checked by pulling it over your little ones head (you may need to cut the neck opening a bit bigger) if you used ribbing, like a t-shirt neck?
I am only pondering though, I have not made it….. 🙂 -
