Who doesn\u2019t love taking different pieces from different patterns in order to create a new look? It can be as easy as adding Oliver + S pockets to the Sunny Day Shorts<\/a>. Do you remember this popular tutorial<\/a> on attaching the Bear Carrier to the Penguin Backpack to create an innovative doll carrier backpack? So clever!<\/p>\n

\"Doll<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Well, here is a little round-up of what others have tried and had success with when mixing and matching some pattern pieces. One of them even managed to mix pieces from three different sewing patterns!<\/p>\n

Elizabeth is the creator of this Sunday Brunch Jacket<\/a> with a School Days Jacket<\/a> hood. In her blog post<\/a> she talks more about the modifications she did in order to attach the hood. You can also see more photos of the beautiful jacket interior there, too.<\/p>\n

Here is a Playtime Tunic<\/a> with Hide-and-Seek Dress<\/a> sleeves and Jump Rope Dress<\/a> sleeve tabs. It was Amanda<\/a> who put it all together and she also made other little adjustments to get the look she wanted.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Brittney<\/a> sewed this white Lullaby Layette<\/a> bodysuit with Sketchbook Shirt<\/a> collar. It\u2019s absolutely adorable, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lastly, go check out this one<\/a>, it\u2019s a Book Report Dress<\/a> with modified pockets. You could recreate a similar look using the Seashore Sundress<\/a> pockets.<\/p>\n

We always love to see photos of the Oliver + S clothing you make. Don\u2019t forget the Flickr group<\/a>, where you can share your creations with other appreciative seamstresses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
