Meet Liesl of Liesl Made!
She is adorable. Her blog is full of pretty things. And her shop is loaded with everything I love!
How long have you been sewing? How did you get started?
I’ve been sewing pretty nonstop for about ten years now. When I was very little, I wanted to make some doll clothes and my Mom showed me how to thread the sewing machine. Then it kind of lay dormant until I was about fifteen when I had the urge to make my Grandma a wall quilt. My Mom refreshed my memory with the machine and everything since then I learned from books, the internet and lots of trial and error.

What do you listen to while creating?
I listen to a lot of music, especially when I’m sewing. All kinds of genres. It can range from Ani DiFranco to Florence + the Machine, Iron & Wine to the White Stripes. And I’ll even admit to listening to Lady Gaga on occasion.

I realize it's probably a boring answer, but I'd have to say Bread! My dad bakes it from scratch every Sunday.

I think my favourite item in the shop is the yellow and gold butcher's apron...I don't know, I'm terribly partial to the red and gold one as well though!
