As winter winds down and the promise of spring arrives, it's time to pack away those cozy winter clothes and embrace the new season. To help inspire your sewing projects for spring, I've gathered some stunning creations from Oliver + S that are sure to get your creative juices flowing. I always find it helpful to see finished examples of patterns before diving into my own projects—don't you? Seeing what others have done often sparks fresh ideas.
