Halloween Fun!

Joel Dewberry, Aviary 2, Presale in my Etsy shop!

Aviary by Joel Dewberry is back! This time there are 6 different Sparrow prints.  I know I'm not the only person who has spent an arm and a leg to purchase the sparrow fabric after it went out of print.  I have all 6 of the sparrow prints on presale in my Etsy Store.  I've been nervous that I'll sell everything I have ordered right away and won't be able to make anythin for myself!  For someone who is as addicted to fabric as I am, that's a very scary thought!

Fabric Giveaway Winner and Other Happenings

The winner of the 5 full yards of Anna Maria Horners Innocent crush is Jessica Gast.  Her blog is handmadebyjess.  Thanks everyone for the great input and advice.  Sorry for taking so long to make the announcement. 

I have another announcement to make and perhaps this will help explain the lack of posting lately.

I'm having a baby!  I'll be finding out the gender within a few weeks and I see a lot of baby crafting in my future.

Thanks Everyone!

Ruffle Pants and Dress

This is a dress and ruffle pants that my friend Sherri made.  She used Anna Maria Horner's Innocent Crush and Amy Butler Midwest Modern fabrics.  I think it turned out adorable!

Ruffle Pants

My Neighbor Sherri made these adorable ruffle pants. This size is 3T and she will probably be taking custom orders in the future! She is working on a dress that will go over that pants so that the ruffles will show on the bottom. Sherri is a master seamstress/tailor so everything is serged and looks perfect!

These Hexi's are addictive to make but sewing them together takes a little too long for me. I did manage to get one finished. What I like the most about this is how portable it can be and to use fabric scraps. I am working on more.

I used Amy Butler (Midwest Modern, Love and Lotus) I was able to use tons of scraps that I would have otherwise thrown away. I used the tutorial from Film in the Fridge.
