Oliver and S.: Little Things to Sew, and a Giveaway!

Remember I said I had a sweet little freelance job this month? Well, now I can show you! It's an animated trailer that I made for my friends at Oliver & S for their new book "Little Things to Sew".

Oliver + S Little Things to Sew, by Liesl Gibson from STC Craft on Vimeo.

I've always loved their patterns, which I sew over and over. Animating their characters was so much fun!

As a bonus, they've gifted me a pattern to give away to one reader of this blog. It's the Bubble Dress pattern (size: birth to 24 month). It's the sweetest pattern, and you will love sewing it; I did! To win, leave a comment on this post. I'll pick a winner by the end of February, in anticipation of the book's March release. Good luck!

    I already saw the animation on the Oliver + S blog - it's wonderful!

    I'd love to win the Bubble Dress pattern, it's one of the Oliver + S ones I haven't tried yet, and would be perfect for my baby girl.
