Welcome!

Hi everyone,

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are doing fantastic today! I want to wish all of the incredible nurses a Happy Nurse’s Day – we appreciate you, you are amazing, thank you for all that you do.

Time for this week’s How To’s Day! Today we are sharing an adorable Made by Rae little girl’s dress pattern that we had sewn up in-house (thanks, Tammy!), featuring our Pastel Me More Collection. Our Pastel Me More collection is just as the name suggests – beautiful pastel hues of blue, yellow, pink, and muted purple in fun geometric prints. The pastels work really well together to create unique color combinations, that are fun and girly. The happy colors in Pastel Me More are perfect for clothing, such as Made by Rae’s Geranium Dress.

We adore the versatility of the Geranium Dress, with the pattern including a range in sizes (newborn to kid’s size 12!), as well as different sleeve options (flutter sleeve, sleeveless, or faux cap sleeve). The Geranium Dress is the perfect everyday dress for your little one to go to school in or play at the park in. It ‘s such as sweet dress that can be worn casually, but also for a “nicer” event…while still feeling comfortable (which I know, is important for little ones!). We chose a blue and yellow triangle print for the bodice and pockets, and a contrasting yellow skirt, both from Pastel Me More. Super cute!! 

You can find the full pattern for Made By Rae’s Geranium Dress here. You can also find more from Made by Rae on her blog, Facebook Page, Twitter, and Instagram. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Sewing!

Hi everyone,

Happy Fri-YAY!! We hope you all are having a great day. We are definitely looking forward to the weekend. Woot woot! We’re also giving away a Coraline FQ bundle this week, so be sure to head on over to our Facebook Page to enter.

It’s time to our week with our Fan Friday! Today we are featuring some stunning dresses made by Lucy Made, with our Beyond the Backyard by Jane Farnham Collection. Lucy Made is a blog by a creative gal named Lucy, who shares her love affair for fabric, wool, and sewing on her blog. She is inspired by color and pattern, creating with a sewing machine named Daphne – how fantastic! 

Lucy Made made a couple of Geranium dresses (by madebyrae) for her friend’s little girls, using our Beyond the Backyard by Jane Farnham Collection, and they are just the sweetest. Big sister got a tunic-style dress with cap-sleeves and pockets, featuring a more bold, floral print from Beyond the Backyard. A sleeveless option, with a fuller skirt and a pink design, was chosen for the little sister. Both are just as adorable, and we hope the girls enjoyed their new outfits as much as we do! Lucy did such an amazing job making these dresses…we wish there were adult sizes in these hehe.

We also had a Geranium Dress made up in-house, with our Pastel Me More Collection, so we thought we’d also share it here. This dress truly is so versatile, and looks uber cute in both bold and soft prints.

Thank you so much, Lucy, for the fabric love!! We found your adorable dresses on Jane Farnham’s blog and just had to share. Too much cuteness!! (ps: congrats on the bundle on the way!) You can find more from Lucy on her blog, twitter, and flickr. Have an amazing weekend, everyone!

Happy Sewing!
