Oh @jwo what a bummer. The skirt I saw on Instagram was awesome. I’m sure you’ve applied for extensions on work before, right? 😉

sewing for dd has pretty much followed the lead set by her brother: she tells me what she likes or wants, or I look at what gets the most wear (or needs replacing) when I do the laundry. I let her pick from my fabric stash and she draws the type of garment she wants out of it — she’s tiny so I’ve only had to tell her I don’t have enough a few…[Read more]

Matching across the front and back crotch isn’t too hard, it’s the A line side seams that would be nasty to match.
I straightened the side seams to vertical for my Gaultier tartan pair.

I am so pleased it worked out @enbee

@with-love-heidiHeidi, I am *finally* about to tackle that pattern. I hope I can call on you if I need to.

I have been sewing for Trixie. A Playtime tunic&leggings, a Bubble dress+bloomers, a Puppet Show+ shorts, a 2+2 blouse and now a Sailboat top and trousers.

I love how quick and rewarding tiny clothes sewing is.

What are the rest of you…[Read more]

@frances-suzanne that’s exactly the size/length I just made for my 4&3/4 year old and no probs at all with head hole size. Have fun. That placket is gold!

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

@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

You’ve got it. There’s a photo that shows snaps going into a coat here: http://bartacksandsingletrack.blogspot.com.au/2013/07/a-pattern-to-make-product-to-be-proud-of.html?m=0
Hope that helps.

You know what to do!
Get the smaller size and make a nicely fitted dress with length added where needed.
Enjoy!

@justsewit you darling, that is perfect!
