We’re pleased to announce the launch of our newest website feature–the Oliver + S discussion forums<\/a>. You can access the forums by clicking on the text in the navigation bar at the top of every page.<\/p>\n

The forums are designed to provide you with a place to ask other customers questions about sewing with Oliver + S patterns and to discuss other topics of general interest. There is no charge to use the forums. All you need to do is create a username and password to begin participating.<\/p>\n

We hope to grow the content in the forums over time so that they become a valuable repository of information for our customers. So if you have a question or a comment, please share it there. Let us, with a little help from technology, connect you with other people asking the same questions and coming up with creative ideas for what they can do with Oliver + S patterns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
