(re)introductions

Hello there! I always enjoy taking a moment to reintroduce myself. My name is Liesl, and I’m the person behind Liesl + Co, Oliver + S, Straight Stitch Society, and Lisette for Butterick. I spent some time honing my craft in fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. After working with big names like Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger, I decided to start my own venture 18 years ago. Nowadays, I call Madrid, Spain, home, but I love blending a touch of New York chic with European elegance in all of our patterns. I believe that classic styles have endless possibilities. They can adapt to suit different personalities simply by how they’re styled. In today's world, where sustainability is key, choosing timeless designs made from high-quality fabrics ensures we stay stylish while being mindful of the planet. Our sewing patterns are known for their precision drafting, great fit, comprehensive instructions, and versatile styles that stand the test of time. Each one is crafted to not only help you create beautiful garments but also teach valuable sewing skills along the way. It’s such a pleasure to connect with you. If you’re looking for inspiration or guidance, our blog is packed with tutorials and techniques—think of it as your go-to resource anytime you need it. Don’t hesitate to explore further, ask questions, and engage with our community on our discussion forums or social media platforms. You can find us on Facebook under Liesl + Co, Liesl + Co Friends, Oliver + S, and Oliver + S Friends. We’re also active on Instagram as Liesl + Co, Oliver + S, and through my personal account. Thank you so much for visiting—I truly appreciate having you here! --- And now, here’s something else I’d like to share: life beyond work is just as important. Over the years, I’ve discovered that balance plays a huge role in creativity and happiness. Whether it’s exploring new places, trying out recipes, or simply enjoying quiet moments, these experiences enrich my perspective and often inspire what we do here. It’s funny how sometimes the most unexpected things can spark ideas for future projects! Speaking of which, if you’re curious about behind-the-scenes glimpses into my journey—or maybe even some sneak peeks at upcoming collections—you might want to follow along more closely on Instagram. I love sharing snippets of my day-to-day life because it helps build connections that feel real and authentic. Anyway, enough about me! Let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like to learn or discuss. The sewing community is vibrant and supportive, and I’m thrilled to be part of it with you. Warm regards, Liesl P.S. For those who enjoy visual storytelling, here’s a recent photo of me. I hope it gives you a sense of who I am beyond the patterns! ![Liesl, the designer behind our sewing patterns](http://bsg-i.nbxc.com/blog/6dfc8c735f1e486c6a0dddd8da1a185c.jpg) --- (And yes, ads sometimes pop up below, but they don’t reflect my personal recommendations unless explicitly stated!) --- If you enjoyed reading this, feel free to check out related posts below or dive deeper into our archives.
