Sewn Studio Summer Swap

A little while back I got an email about a swap from Sewn Studio.  I don't know what it is about swaps this year but I signed up right away.  

Cotton + Steel Gardenia - contest winner

A few weeks back we did a giveaway on our Facebook page.  We ended up choosing two winners.  One of the winners chose the Gardenia dress in this fun lion print by Sarah Watts for Cotton + Steel.  

Making Kid's Clothes

So, I apologize for my absence.  I've been working really hard on a few things that I'll share with you.  I should also apologize this is going to be a very photo heavy post :)

I've been working hard on a bunch of new things for the Etsy shop and a few samples for a shop my cousin runs.

First are some basic leggings in the new Anna Maria Horner knit.  I'm in love with pretty much everything she designs.  

Kids Clothes Week days 3-4 - Hummingbird Dress

So going into day 3 of Kids Clothes week, I kind of fell into a funk.  I own a million patterns but none of them were really grabbing me.  So I went on looked around on etsy and ended up buying the Hummingbird dress pattern from Rabbit Rabbit Creation.  Its a really simple stylish dress.

Kids Clothes Week Day 1 (and 2) - Fawn Lily Tunic and a giveaway!!

So I started off KCW with big plans.  So far I have just gotten this Fawn Lily Tunic done for my girl. The pattern is by Willow and Co. and you can get it here.  It's really a great pattern.  I anticipated it being more difficult than it was.  I mostly finished this on day 1.  Day 2 of KCW was kind of a wash, my husband was off of work for the first time in 9 days so we were outside mostly with our daughter in the kiddie pool.  I did print off some more patterns and will spend today taping and tracing and cutting.
