You have busy sewing these past several months and we wanted to highlight some your creations here today. You\u2019ll find lots of examples to inspire your creativity and to help keep your sewing fresh. Isn\u2019t if fun seeing the fabric other people select for sewing different patterns?<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start out with Rachel\u2019s first Oliver + S creation. She’s an heirloom sewer and smocker at heart. She wanted to try to add smocking to the Hide-and-Seek dress<\/a>, which was an experiment, with fabric she had left over from another project. The smocking is gorgeous and very well done. For more smocking inspiration, be sure to check out our Smocked Dress Round-up<\/a> and our Smocked Pocket tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s another Hide-and-Seek creation, but this time a tunic version. Janice<\/a> made this first day of school outfit for her daughter. Do you have a tradition of sewing a new outfit for the first day of school?<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Justine<\/a> made this sweet as can be Lullaby Layette Set<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Justine<\/a> also sewed this Lisette B6464 Top<\/a>. Head this way<\/a> to see the rest of the pieces she made from the same pattern.<\/p>\n

\"Lisette<\/a><\/p>\n

Moving right along, Sharon<\/a> made this super cute Playtime dress<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Sharon<\/a> also created this Class Picnic outfit<\/a>. She used this Ruffle Shorts Tutorial<\/a> to add ruffles to the shorts.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Elisabeth made these Butterfly Blouses and Skirts<\/a> using fun<\/a> fabrics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Elisabeth<\/a> got clever<\/a> by hacking the School Bus T-shirt<\/a> with the placket from the Parachute Polo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

I love the simplicity of this Ruffled Halter<\/a> without ruffles sewn by Kerstin<\/a>. She<\/a> also made this Explorer Vest<\/a> and Reversible Bucket Hat<\/a>. Don’t forget that we have a Reversible Bucket Hat Tutorial<\/a> to help you and an Explorer Vest Round-up<\/a> to offer more inspiration.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Brittney<\/a> took the School Bus T-shirt<\/a> and added a hood, if you’d like to make one just like it, take a look at her Hooded T-shirt tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Brittney<\/a> also made this fantastic Field Trip Raglan<\/a> which just happens to be her favorite pattern<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Constanca<\/a> took a thrifted tablecloth and turned it into a beach caftan. She followed Liesl\u2019s Linen Caftan class on Creativebug<\/a>. You can find all of Liesl’s project-based workshops on Creativebug right in one spot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Linen<\/a><\/p>\n

Katy<\/a> sewed up some beautiful In a Clutch Cosmetic Cases for teacher gifts. Come visit our post about all of the Straight Stitch Society patterns<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Straight<\/a><\/p>\n

Up next, these Lunch Box Tees<\/a> and Sunny Day Shorts<\/a> were a gift<\/a> from their sewing fairy godmother.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

Laine<\/a> grabbed the School Bus T-shirt pattern and turned into a dress. There are so many different ways to customize a t-shirt pattern, check out our Twenty T-shirt Tutorials<\/a> post.<\/p>\n

\"Oliver<\/a><\/p>\n

And lastly, Gretchen<\/a> made herself a lovely Cinema Dress<\/a>.<\/p>\n
