After my experience with the School Days jacket, I'm thinking of sewing a hooded rain jacket for myself with one of the amazing new laminates coming out this fall. I'm torn between the new Echino http://www.trueup.net/?p=6863 (oh, those birds!) and Love by Amy Butler http://www.amybutlerdesign.com/products/fabrics_love_laminated1.php (look at that paradise garden in midnight!).
Has anyone else found that for Oliver + S you'll tackle projects you'd otherwise be way too intimidated to sew? There's something so approachable about sewing something in a child's size, and Liesl's instructions are like a sewing master class.
What have you sewn this year that's stretched your limits? And should I go with the birds or the flowers? DH thinks both are over the top!
