We’ve reached the end of the first month of the Ways to Wear It Challenge<\/a>.\u00a0It’s been fun to see your creativity as you have found new ways to style the pieces you’ve chosen.<\/p>\n

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

This month, we particularly loved all the outfits\u00a0Sheila<\/a>\u00a0made using a jumper she sewed. Who knew a bright-pink pinafore would be such a versatile wardrobe item? That’s the magic of this challenge.<\/p>\n

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

We also loved Lyndsey’s casual and dressed-up pairings using the top she made from Lisette for Butterick B6526<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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

If you haven’t heard of the challenge or haven’t had a chance to play along, it’s not too late! All you need to do is choose a garment and try styling it in new ways. It doesn’t have to be a Liesl + Co. pattern; in fact, it doesn’t even need to be handmade. It just needs to be something you already own.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to enter to win a prize, post a photo or two on IG and tag them #waystowearitchallenge<\/a>.\u00a0The challenge will run through the end of November and we will randomly draw two more winners before the end.<\/p>\n

September’s winner was Beth.<\/a>\u00a0She is playing along with her jersey Everyday Skirt<\/a>, which she recently blogged<\/a> about for us.
