Thanks to Anne, we have two nice tutorials on how to customize the Oliver + S Sunny Day Shorts.

We’ve heard from Flat S again as she continues her travels around the globe. She has just wrapped up a nice visit with Nelleke and family in The Netherlands. Here’s a recap on what she did during her stay.

We’re happy to have Steph with us today. She’s sharing some makes from her favorite Oliver + S pattern, the Building Block Dress.

We’re taking most of the rest of the month of August off. But that doesn’t mean you can’t stay in touch! Join our Facebook friends groups and you’ll always have something interesting and inspiring to help you with your sewing.

In this tutorial, we show you how to line any pair of pants. Shelley demonstrates the process by adding a lining to the Liesl + Co. SoHo Shorts.

Liesl shows you how you can turn the Liesl + Co. Classic Shirt pattern into a classic shirt dress. It’s easier than you think, and it greatly expands the number of things you can do with this pattern.

Ever wanted to sew the Liesl + Co. Classic Shirt as a pop-over instead of button-front style? Now you can with this free popover placket pattern piece and tutorial.

This week Liesl is going to show you how to turn the Liesl + Co. Classic Shirt Pattern into a dress. Today she talks you through lengthening the pattern.

Liesl is here again today with her weekly round up of links. Enjoy!
