I wanted to thank you for the "learning to sew with Oliver and S" aspect of your business. I sewed the bed-time story pyjamas last August. They were the first thing I'd ever sewn from a pattern. I've worked through quite a few of your patterns since, without any other sewing lessons. I have recently finished making the birthday party dress and I feel a huge sense of achievement - especially since I have toddler twins and a four year old on the loose. The presentation of the patterns is so clear that I can manage to understand them even after a night with very little sleep! You have prevented my brain from turning to mush!!!! I have picked up so many skills I may even venture into sewing something for . . . me!
Thanks again, everyone at Oliver and S
