I had the opportunity a month or two ago to test these fabulous shorts from Jennuine Design! Funnily enough, I was sorting through my youngest daughter's bins of clothing just the other day, and discovered a Tea collection pair that was super similar! So I guess you can say I am very drawn to this… Continue reading Jennuine Design Limone Lounge Set {Pattern Release}
A new dress from Peony Patterns is available, and it's gorgeous of course!! I also had the opportunity to partner with P&B Textiles, a quilting fabric company, and *spoiler alert* - I have another Peony outfit coming in the same fabric in just a few weeks!!! **Also! Peony Patterns have reached 10K members in their… Continue reading Peony Patterns Maple Dress {Release}
We all have those projects. You know the ones: The ones we start. And then.... they go on hold... for way too long. I actually stitched this Iris embroidery MONTHS ago. And of course, it was just LOVE! I really enjoyed stitching the Hungarian Chain Stitch, though it did take a couple of tries to… Continue reading Peony Patterns Jasmine + Iris (Pastel Rainbow Dress)

But I was recently invited to a baby shower for a baby girl and so FINALLY I had a reason to make the adorable Baby Poppy from Peony Patterns! Baby Poppy is available in sizes newborn to size… Continue reading Peony Patterns Baby Poppy
In my last post, I shared how I took a trip to Artistic Artifacts to get some Tilda fabric. I should probably amend that to say I actually first decided to go because I realized they had Australian Aboriginal fabric *and then* realized they had Tilda too! Knowing that I was about to sew up… Continue reading Ivy & Marigold + Aboriginal Art
I'm so loving this hand embroidery kick I'm on! My youngest had been nagging for an embroidered dress after I had made her big sister's dress a few weeks ago. When she saw me stitching this one, she promptly gave me some of her artwork and declared that she wanted me to embroider it! So,… Continue reading Duchess & Hare Junebug Dress {Release}
Hurray for summer and swimsuit making! Last week, Phee Fabrics sent me a surprise 1/2 yard of their Swim Tricot Knit to sew up and promote during their Swim Week. I was *VERY* surprised to receive NEON YELLOW! It's totally not a color I would have selected on my own, but it's very very fabulous… Continue reading Phee Fabrics Swim Week: LLK Monaco
