Ready to get to work designing your own dress to sew from Liesl’s Oliver + S Building Block Dress? We’ve got a fun little design sheet giveaway for you today that will help you do that.

Liesl checks in this afternoon with answers to some of the questions she has received this week about the Building Block Dress–including whether it can be used with knits.

We’ve been seeing a few questions pop up frequently since releasing Oliver + S Building Block Dress this week. Here are answers to some of the more common ones.

Liesl is going to hit the internet and the road to help you get familiar with her new Oliver + S Building Block Dress. Find out about the planned events and when she will be holding workshops.

While Oliver + S Building Block Dress was in development, several members of the Oliver + S community volunteered to test it by designing and sewing their own dresses. Take a look at some of the wonderful garments that they made!

The time has finally arrived! Copies of Liesl’s new book, Oliver + S Building Block Dress, are now available for sale in the Oliver + S shop. See the details and get information on a few special promotions we are offering this week only.

Liesl spent this past week in Paris. Here are her Paris-inspired weekend links for you.
