building block dress

Brr! Baby it’s cold outside! But it’s cozy inside so this is a good time of the year to stay inside and get lots of sewing done. We’ve gathered up ten sewing tutorials perfect for the wintertime.

Today Shelley is talking about sewing the Oliver + S Building Block Dress in knit fabric and sharing the version she made.

For Halloween this year, S had a another crazy costume idea. And Liesl, despite having sworn she would never sew a Halloween costume, broke down for the second year and created her very own version of the garments worn by Don Juan de Austria in his famous portrait.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Dreaming of a DIY holiday? Here is some holiday sewing inspiration for you.

Liesl demonstrates how you can take the techniques presented in the Oliver + S Building Block Dress and apply them to women’s patterns as well to make exactly the dress you’re dreaming of.

Liesl is back home in Madrid after her three-week book tour of the United States. She has a little recap of her travels to share with you.

The entries have all been received, and the voting is over. It’s now time to announce the winner of the Building Block Dress Design Contest!

Rachel has been sewing doll skirts again. We have a free printable skirt pattern for 13-inch and 14.5-inch dolls. They are absolutely adorable and are super quick and easy to make!
