Calling all Liesl + Co. fans: we want to hear from you! The week of October 22nd we will be hosting a sew-along for one of the new Liesl + Co. patterns. Have no fear because we will have sew-alongs for all three of the new fall Liesl + Co. patterns, but the first one will be in October and the other two will be after the New Year.<\/p>\n

Here’s the deal. You get to choose which one we do this month! So let us know what you would like to sew first.<\/p>\n

Here are the choices of patterns (in alphabetical order) that you have for our October sew-along.<\/p>\n

1)<\/strong> Afternoon Tea Blouse<\/a>
\nPerfect for an afternoon out with friends or a day at the office, this semifitted blouse features a fun chest detail that makes it extra special. Sew the blouse with contrasting fabrics for a color-blocked detail or choose lace or a sheer fabric for the inset stripe. This contemporary take on a vintage blouse eliminates the shoulder seam so the sleeves are easy and fun to sew. The inset panel forms a pretty chevron over the bracelet-length flounce sleeves, and the back features an easy keyhole opening with a button-and-loop closure. This pattern includes separate pieces for A\/B, C, and D cups for ease of fitting.<\/p>\n

2)<\/strong> Hollywood Trousers<\/a>
\nThese very fitted, moderately high-rise, wide-legged trousers will have you looking and feeling like a classic movie star. This pattern includes a traditional zipper fly with fly shield, back darts for shaping, and optional front pockets with menswear-style pocket stays for a smooth front without gaping or bulging. You can decide whether to sew the optional lining. The inseam on this pattern is moved forward for a better fit to give you truly professional, classically tailored trousers for every occasion.<\/p>\n

3)<\/strong> Neighborhood Sweatshirt + Hoodie<\/a>
\nThis versatile raglan sweatshirt is designed specifically for knit fabrics and can be sewn either as a front-zip hoodie with princess-seam details and a kangaroo pocket or as a pull-on sweatshirt with color-blocked sleeves. Slightly boxy in shape with a double-fold hem that dips a little lower in back for extra coverage, both styles include a contrast-fabric detail and the pieces can be mixed and matched to create other unique styles.<\/p>\n
