Over the past several months, you’ve been hard at work sewing, and we thought it would be great to showcase some of your creations here today. Your work is truly inspiring and offers plenty of ideas to spark your creativity while keeping your sewing projects fresh and exciting. Isn’t it fascinating to see how others choose fabrics for different patterns? Each choice tells its own story!
Let’s kick things off with Rachel’s first attempt at an Oliver + S creation.

The smocking turned out absolutely stunning! If you're looking for more smocking inspiration, don't miss our Smocked Dress Round-up and our Smocked Pocket tutorial.
