\nAs much as we love our own illustrated paper doll<\/a> packaging at Oliver + S, we think it’s also nice to see how the actual garments will look when finished.<\/p>\n

To that end, I’ve just created a Flickr group<\/a> where everyone can post photos of garments made using Olvier + S patterns. I love to see how fabric and trim choices can completely change the appearance of a garment, and seeing how other people have interpreted a pattern is great way to be inspired to try something different in your own sewing. Plus, sometimes it’s just fun to show off something you’ve made!<\/p>\n

In order to help shops do a little showing off of their own, we’ve created two trunk shows that will be travelling all over the country, accompanied by an Oliver + S supermodel to meet crafters and to show off the spring\/summer collection.<\/p>\n

You can see the S girls here, posing for a quick shot before a rainstorm. Poor little Scout back there in the navy floral Bubble Dress (all the S girls have names that begin with S, of course) is actually a size 12-18 month baby, but two of her sisters were out on a photo shoot (seriously) and she gracefully filled in for them.<\/p>\n

These supermodels are showing off the Moda trunk show:<\/p>\n

\nSari is sporting the Tea Party Sundress in Moda’s American Jane “Wee Play<\/a>” collection, available right now: the polka dots print, item #21083-15, in light blue, and floral daisy #21080-14 in light blue.<\/p>\n

\nDear little Scout holds her own in the Bubble Dress in “Wee Play” floral daisy #21080-14 in navy<\/p>\n

\nSamantha shows us the Swingset tunic in Moda’s Urban Chiks “Swell<\/a>” (#31030-17) in Cherry and skirt in Purl Patchwork’s Cake Rock Beack “Net of Jewels” (Moda #12551-13) in Ruby.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd Stephanie adores her Puppet Show tunic with a polka dot print from “Look and Learn” #21073-21 in red, and solid red fabric from “Net of Jewels” (#12551-13) in Ruby. Her shorts are made from a natural linen but would also look adorable in a print or solid fabric.<\/p>\n

Our models will be back soon to show you their second outfits, part of the Michael Miller Organics collection. Stay tuned. Because supermodels don’t like to be kept waiting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
