    I’ve fallen IN LOVE with a line of children’s clothing patterns called “Oliver + S“.  It doesn’t help that I also have an addiction to paper dolls and all things vintage, but patterns just don’t get any cuter than this:

    These are just a few of the patterns that will be arriving in the next few days.

    I had seen them at various quilt stores in Utah before, but I had never dared buy them because they didn’t have real photos, and they were kinda pricey. This morning, however, I found them for 30% off + free shipping … and Googling revealed tons of praise for and plenty of pictures of finished garments from these darling patterns.  There’s even a Flickr group dedicated solely to “Oliver and S.”

    They have a couple of free pattern downloads, one of which was used by a crafty someone to make a vintage pillowcase dress.  Yes, I will be making one of these in the near future, too.  I even have the perfect pillowcase for it.

    It’s not very often that I get THIS excited about something.

    Stay tuned for pictures of Vivi modeling the finished projects. 🙂
