Cowgirl Up!

Miss Maisie turned 3 three this past weekend! We certainly enjoyed being able to celebrate with her at her cowgirl party! With Maisie exclusively in my mind, I made this little dress as her gift . It says, "I'm fun, I've got sass, and I can do this up right in my boots and my hat!" Happy birthday Cowgirl Maisie!

Mother's Day Dresses

A set of special Mother's Day dresses for the 2 most delicious children in the world! Happy very belated Mother's Day everyone!

Cousin Coordinates

Fabric: Dots by Amy Butler: Birds by Alexander Henry

My friend, Tiffany, is having photos done of her children and their cousin as a Mother's Day gift to her mother-in-law. Very sweet idea. She asked me to make matching (but not exactly matching) dresses for the girls. We collaborated on choosing the fabrics, a fabulously funky mod combination of dots and birds. Fun! I love the way they turned out, and I can't wait to see the pictures of Tiff's cute kiddos!

Couture

Fabric by Amy Butler

It is April, and I am just now finding time to play with the sewing machine that Ben gave me for Christmas. This is what happens when you plug in Becoming Jane and sew until 4:00 am... a stroke of genius! I didn't use a pattern, just good old fashioned measuring and studying some pictures on Etsy. First thing this morning, I drove the dress (with Evie in it because she refused to take it off) to my mom's so that she could give me an "atta-girl!" I'm feeling pretty proud of my toddler couture and I am just itching to make some more! I already ordered some more fabric today!!!

BTW: Ev is wearing a hair clip from one of my new favorite Etsy sellers, check out Strawberry Swirl here!
