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

Frances Suzanne started the topic Jump Rope Dress Placket in the forum oliver + s: jump rope 10 years ago
We are finally getting around to sewing this lovely pattern and were wondering the ease of getting it over a child’s head. Should we lengthen the placket slightly (without altering the integrity of the pattern) if our niece is traumatized when pulling ‘tight’ things over her head? IF this would be helpful, has anyone attempted it and what steps…[Read more]

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]

Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Lisette B6244 Coat Sew Along in the forum
Sew Alongs 10 years ago@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!

Or here’s a thought, since those reading here are probably interested in Oliver & S products, try one of these:

Perhaps the other companies’ sites would be good places to advertise their products and sales, as I…[Read more]

Nothing like a mom who likes fun, colorful clothes to inspire you, eh?
I’ve finished off the first of five bear carriers, the other still need buttons and velcro. So tempted to take a break and make a new dress, to add to the closet full of pretty dresses that are worn once a week, at most. Sensible is sensible, but it isn’t much fun.

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

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. -
Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Which pattern size should I get? in the forum oliver + s: fairy tale 10 years ago
You know what to do!
Get the smaller size and make a nicely fitted dress with length added where needed.
Enjoy! -

I think that would be perfect! I am aiming for a family photo this year (with me in it as well) so I am really wanting to make everyone’s Christmas outfit. I still need to decided on my husband’s now. He doesn’t do dress up shirts so I thinking of a Henley with dress pants. Maybe navy blue knit?
