Patty Ann Apron Top

I had the wonderful pleasure of testing a new pattern by Two Peas in a Pod Designs! By June, the Patsy Ann Apron Top pattern will be up for sale in her etsy shop at http://twopeasinapoddesigns.etsy.com!

I used a fun floral from the Love U line by Deb Strain for the body and a red gingham from my stash for the band and straps.

My daughter was a eager model if you couldn't tell. :) One great thing about this design is that it can be layered over a short or long sleeve shirt, shorts or pants, extending the wear season to all year round! This pattern was really quick to put together and so easy! I'll definitely be making another one soon!

Introducing my Count On Me collection!

I am so excited to finally introduce my first full fabric collection, Count on Me! It's available through Spoonflower! You can choose just one or two fabrics, or order a sampler of all the pieces! You can choose from a variety of fabrics and quantities and the fabric will be custom printed especially for you!

This fabric line arose out of my digital scrapbooking kit of the same name, Count on Me! The number/word arrangement is the same, but the fabric has a subtle diamond/harlequin pattern in the background and isn't the least bit grungy.

There's a design for each number from 1 to 10. Click on the preview to see the purchase options for each fabric.

I also included some semi-solids to coordinate with the number-themed fabric! This tan harlequin is exactly the same background as the numbered fabrics, but without the black type reads as much lighter.

I think this olive color complements the tan so nicely!

Lastly, I also made a brown harlequin design!

If you purchase any of these fabrics I would love to see what you create with them! Someone already shared a lovely plan for the piece of number 3-themed fabric she purchased! When she finishes the project I'll ask if she'd mind me sharing it here!

Count On Me fabric sneak peek!

I didn't get the chance to have this ready in time to put the full set up for sale while the blog train is on, but I also have a Count on Me fabric collection through Spoonflower!

The design featuring the number 4 is available right now! Here's a peek at a swatch of it! You can order some of your own right HERE.

As soon as the full collection is up for sale, I'll be sure to post photos of the actual fabric and information on how to purchase some from yourself!

Sewing catch-up!

I've spent most my time lately catching up on sewing!  You may recognize this fabric....

It's from A Few of My Favorite Things!  If you would like to sew up something with this fabric, it's up for sale at Spoonflower. 

I also had fun creating this little Valentine's outfit (x 2). I made up a pattern for the skirt, so one of these days I'll write up a little tutorial on it. :)

Scrapbooking meets Fabric!

There's a special theme to today's post! These fabric designs actually started out as scrapbooking supplies! Both patterns are by MODKID and were such a pleasure to sew! I will definitely be sewing more of these outfits for my girls soon!

This is the Sydney pattern! I used the Bloom & Grow line which originated from this digital scrapbooking kit of the same name by Zoe Pearn! (I picked it up this weekend, I couldn't resist! One of these days after I sew the 2nd matching dress, I'll scrap pictures of the girls with the kit!)

And here's the Kyoko pattern! I made it with a fabric line by Moda based on Basic Grey's Sultry scrapbook paper line! I bought the fabric this past spring from the Fat Quarter Shop but it's not available there anymore. We did happen upon some of the paper at Micheal's this weekend though! Picked up some for an upcoming project. :)

You can buy my fabric!

I've got some exciting news! Now you can purchase fabric in one of my very favorite designs through Spoonflower! It's the same design you see on my blog background and one of the patterned papers in A Few Of My Favorite Things! You can buy it right HERE. If you do purchase it, I'd really love to see what you create with it!
