We were told that special guests were coming to sing "We are the World" with our chorus. We were certain that Huey Lewis was going to show up. The dress ended up being the highlight of the evening as a local gospel choir didn't quite match our expectations. Thanks for reminding me of this special memory, one closely connected to your mother's talented hands.No Bananas?https://www.blogger.com/profile/06779099304456383935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-43858533892993590452012-03-30T14:31:24.975-04:002012-03-30T14:31:24.975-04:00A very charming tradition, indeed.

I've been really emotional lately because of it! Happy B-day S!<br /><br />My mom taught me to sew when I was seven - and it is still my passion today! I also have a few outfits that my mom made, but also have a few that my Grandma made, that I really cherish. I have a "mother-daughter" skirt set in wool plaid. Looking at the size, and old family pics, I was about 7-8 years old. My son is learning how to sew, and he really likes it. I think it has more to do with using a machine than the act of making something, but he is proud when he gets his project done!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing, and I do love your patterns, I've got a couple of them, and love the style!Heatherhttp://www.whatchabuildin.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-60397692003230216872012-03-09T13:08:36.230-05:002012-03-09T13:08:36.230-05:00Thanks for the lovely read - a Maywood St friendThanks for the lovely read - a Maywood St friendAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14172535299284060045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-83238356113299454422012-03-05T12:22:47.721-05:002012-03-05T12:22:47.721-05:00Your daughter is so sweet and cute.

I got them both made, although I ended up sewing myself into mine, as I didn't have enough time to put a zipper in. I never did go back and fix that either.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13879162672311458964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-34136331673219547732012-03-04T10:58:45.485-05:002012-03-04T10:58:45.485-05:00What a great post, Liesl.

I especially love the part about your mom saying no - I'm pretty sure I took advantage of my mom's sewing talents without knowing it, and now that I sew I know how much work goes into it and I definitely appreciate handmade a lot more! And thank you for starting Oliver + S, I'm so glad you did because I've learned so much from you and my kids have gotten to wear handmades from me because of you! And also, happy birthday to S!

She's not a baby anymore, barely a little girl. She's becoming more independant and its amazing, but so hard to let go. <br />Happy Birthday!DKBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03600945492506674645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-69550298182707910032012-03-03T21:31:42.731-05:002012-03-03T21:31:42.731-05:00Happy birthday, S!
