Body measurements are the same as they are for all our patterns since we use a standard sizing method. So check any of your patterns, and the book will be the same.

Glad you found the issue. I was going to say that this one sounded pretty odd to me and I had no idea what would have been causing the problem!

@cybele727 Yes, that’s a good suggestion. It’s one that was made by many people at the end of 2014 when we did our customer survey. We’re including a printing guide like this on all of our newer PDF patterns now. But we haven’t gone back to add it to the older patterns.

I know, that doesn’t help you now, but it may in the future…..

The invitation says “under the sea”
I’m not sure it’s intended for me.

That is so nice and thoughtful of you! I know Liesl will appreciate it. She is a voracious reader, and I know she will look at every link posted here and then will go looking for more. So, yes, everyone please add links to anything you have read or seen lately that you think she would like.

And here is a short update for those of you who are…[Read more]

I’ve just made a long journey home
And the dishwasher’s all full of foam.

@mari, unfortunately that particular pattern will never be available again. Simplicity took it out of print, and it will not be re-released.

We don’t have a “wanted” board here, but I do know that pattern shows up on eBay every once in a while. You could check there for it.

I’m working my magic with fabric,
Of a colour described as “drab brick”
It’s not easy to sew
So I’m taking it slow

The wintry sun is still shining
After rain that has had the gauge climbing
But the wind is so cold!
If I weren’t so old

Emily, our patterns are sold for personal, noncommercial use only. We ask that people not make and sell items from them for personal profit. But not everyone gets that message….

In blaze orange and neon green ripstop nylon, please, @lightningmcstitch.

So if we develop and release patterns for men, who is volunteering to sew from them for me?

Well, it looks like I made a spelling error. So, for catching it, @lightningmcstitch, you have to take the next line:

This denim it just will not stretch
When I wear it I feel I must retch

This denim it just will not stretch
When I wear it I feel I must wretch

I was able to change the title of the post.

I can’t decide which is my size
Do I go by my waist or my thighs?
I could measure my head

You can think of the book that will be out in September as one gigantic, huge Oliver + S pattern. Or a large number of Oliver + S patterns.

But that’s all I’m saying for now….

There is rumoured to be a new book
The cover, it has a good look
But I just can’t decide
If I step up or hide
