This is a transition piece for summer into fall. The fabrics on these came from a round opening at Moonbeam Fabrics. Rockabily Sparkles I wasn’t sure what to do with this fun sparkle print, so I just kept it simple. I knew she would wear this outfit a bunch, since it is just a fun, […]
The lovely things about sewing up samples, is that you get to see all the pretties ahead of time. The other lovely thing is you get seasonal fabrics WAY ahead of time and have to sew them up! So you are done EARLY! Golden Oak by Fabric Anthropology This is part of the holiday fabric […]
One of the things I like about sewing up strike-offs of fabrics is that it forces me to be more creative. The other seamstresses are good at what they do, so just making a plain top or something isn’t trying hard enough. I want to make something awesome with the strikes! Awesome it is. She’s […]
A few groups have rounds opening this week, so I was super busy again making clothes for my little fashionista. I decided to focus on fall items, since we will be winding up summer here pretty soon. This fabric is from the Horror/Plaid round at RP Custom fabrics and will start running on August 20. […]
The winter print round is open at Zenith & Quasar fabric, and there are some really cute prints. I am a big fan of the reindeer print. 🙂 I thought I would make a little jacket with this one, and so I made the Foliis by Sofilantjes. I used the print in a different way […]
Here is another seasonal print that is for winter. This print is a kids panel, with a matching coordinate from Zenith & Quasar fabrics. The panel looks like this (print yet to come): 24″ tall x 58-60″ wide cut including: 1 front panel (24″ x 20ish”) 1 back panel, solid color (24″ x 20ish”) 1 […]
This was a pattern test for a summer tank top for Orange Daisy Patterns. I liked the coverage, and the fact that she can actually wear this to school. It seems like a lot of summer tops are not geared towards school aged kids and schools clothing standards. Strappy tops and open backs are usually […]
Yes, indeed. I do have more fabric from the Fun Rounds! Arcoiris at RP Custom Fabrics This is the color wheel print, and I decided to make a skort and top with a flounce for the girl. This were really easy to cut with the circular lines in the prints. I used two 25″ rounds […]
This is kind of the perfect fabric for school-age kiddos. This is a pre-order up at The Fabric Cottage with numbers and letters is various colorways. I was a bit late to choose a sample to sew up, so I ended up getting the numbers in white and black. I probably would have chosen the […]
A few years ago I sewed up my girl an outfit inspired by Kira from The Dark Crystal. She still wears it, too, and wants more like it. Naturally, when Moonbeam Textiles created an 80’s movie inspired round including The Dark Crystal, and this order came up to sew up the samples, I jumped on […]
