out and about
If you live in the vicinity of Madison, WI (my home town!), come join me on September 1 at Gayfeather Fabrics, 1521 Williamson St., at 2:00 PM for a little presentation about Oliver + S. I’ll bring some samples made from our patterns and the new City Weekend fabric collection, talk about how I started the company, and take your questions. I think S might join us too. Be sure to call and reserve a spot, since space is limited.
And here is my teaching schedule for the fall, if you care to join me for a class:
- September 19, Purl Soho, New York, NY: Learn to follow a sewing pattern while making the Music Box Jumper
- September 22-23, Children’s Corner, Nashville, TN: two-day workshop including the new School Photo Dress and a second pattern if time allows
- October 2, Cloth and Bobbin, Narberth, PA: knits workshop focusing on the Nature Walk pants, the Hopscotch top or dress, or both.
- November 13, Alewives Fabrics, Nobleboro, ME: workshop topic yet to be determined
If you’re interested in registering for any of these classes, you can contact the shop for details.

Wish I still lived in TN — I’d join you!
Oh bummer! I’m in Madison but that’s my daughter’s first day of Kindergarten and I have to pick her up at 2:30. I’ll watch for another visit!
Liesl, when are you going to make it out to the west coast for a workshop? Maybe you could roll it into an appearance at Sew Expo next February? :)
I really wish that I could come up. I am in Iowa and would love to come but it isn’t in the cards now.
Are you going to come to the Des Moines area in the future?
I wish you would come to Minneapolis or St.Paul. It’s not so far away from Madison.
Liesl I think you and your family need a holiday to Australia. We’d make you very welcome!
Darn it, I am flying in that day to visit my brother and will miss you by just two scant hours. Have fun!
Thanks, everyone. I’m always happy to consider travelling if a store wants to host a class. This fall is completely booked in terms of what I can reasonably handle, but feel free to encourage your local shop to contact us–I love to teach and would be perfectly willing to make the trip next spring or wherever I can fit it into my schedule.
Cheers!
Do you ever come to Charlotte, NC??!!
heading to Utah anytime soon? ;)
I’m sad there is nothing scheduled in the hometown this fall–am visiting New York for the 2nd time in my life in October and was hoping to catch you teaching a class at Purl Soho. I am super-excited about fabric-shopping in the big city. :-)
Wow – Madison was my hometown for many years (I graduated from UW-Madison in textiles and clothing). Great town! After a long stint working in the fashion industry in NYC I am designing a new clothing line near Philadelphia. I hope to meet you October 2 at Narberth.
I am eager to try out your new knit line.
Thank you for sharing your creative, beautiful patterns!
I visited NYC the weekend of 9/17, and hemmed and hawed over altering my travel plans to come home on Monday instead of Sunday so I could attend at Purl Soho. But it was cancelled, boohoo. I did manage to buy patterns and fabric while there though. I have some City Weekend in my stash now! So anyway, how about a trip to Atlanta? It’s lovely here in the Spring! I think you should meet Deborah Moebes at Whipstitch…..
