Brittney replied to the topic your wish list in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

I would love something similar to the Gallery for my girls.

Brittney started the topic Sketchbook shirt for a girl. in the forum oliver + s: sketchbook 10 years ago

I have noticed a lot of button up shirts for girls in the shops lately, I would love to make one for my 10 yo (and she agreed!). Should I make any adjustments to make it more feminine, or leave as is?

Ok, I probably shouldn’t be sewing if this is confusing me: I’ve sewn the placket to the front. I’ve trimmed down the center. So now I”m at the part where I’m folding the placket to the wrong side of the garment. Should I have cut along the entire stitched length, or only to where the angled part you trim off after cutting hits the center…[Read more]

Jess M. replied to the topic View B Shirt Placket Interfacing in the forum oliver + s: lullaby 10 years ago

Gah, so I’m finally getting around to making one of these, I have the digital pattern. I think putting a little note about where these go would go a long way to clearing it up! (I”m making view b, so I was confused! LOL) Because technically, they both have “Snap plackets”….or at least, that’s what I was thinking….because you still use…[Read more]

Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Elastic how long for size 7? in the forum oliver + s: sunny day shorts 10 years ago

@miss_Sonja if you look at any pattern you should find body waist measurements for size 7. General rule of thumb is to cut the elastic one inch shorter than the waist measurement. Depends a lot on your elastic and your kid…
For my just turned 7 son who is quite lean I would cut about 22″. I think this is about 1.5″ less than the standard size 7…[Read more]

I know! Thankfully I realized it before I finished the seams together. 🙂 Thank goodness for small mercies.

Liesl Gibson replied to the topic Drawstring pants? in the forum oliver + s: after-school 10 years ago

The Sandbox Pants have a drawstring like you’re describing, Emily. Maybe look at those instructions and convert them to the After School? It would certainly be do-able, and the elastic makes it possible to pull the pants on and off without untying…

cybele727 replied to the topic What are you sewing now? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

I haven’t been able to sew in months. This week I made a butterfly skirt and a modified garden party. I feel the gray skies lifting. Sewing is so good for my soul. 🙂

Robin replied to the topic Drawstring pants? in the forum oliver + s: after-school 10 years ago

The new parachute pants have elastic and a drawstring. I think your plan is a good one.

cybele727 replied to the topic Stupid things I've done while sewing O&S patterns in the forum sewing with liesl + co and oliver + s 10 years ago

Garden Party… sewed the sleeve in perfectly. A perfectly set in sleeve. Lovely gathers. All in perfect alignment. Best sleeve I ever have sewn… both correctly AND INSIDE OUT!

ARGH!

Nicole replied to the topic Can I use woven bias fabric to bind edge of knit? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

Do you mean an envelope style neck? Where the back comes over the front at the shoulders and opens up to allow dressing?

You can use a woven binding but remember, that it will not be that stretchy so you will need to make sure it will fit over babies head, just with the envelope style opening.

I hope that is some help.

Mama_Knowles replied to the topic anyone want to hold a sample sale? in the forum off topic 10 years ago

I would love to help out if you need any help still.
