Hello Kitty Birthday Party

My youngest daughter's 2nd birthday was coming up and she just loves her Hello Kitty doll, so I decided that would be the perfect theme for her birthday party.   I searched the internet for Hello Kitty fabric to make her a birthday dress.  I found one I liked at Fabric.com and incorporated some pink and red polka dot fabrics into it, along with red and pink tulle under the ruffles for some extra "fluff"!  I really liked how it turned out and I now have received a special request from my 3 year old for a Hello Kitty/Robot dress for her 4th birthday party dress!  I'm not sure how I am going to pull that one off... she may just end up with a Hello Kitty dress like her sissy's and some robot decorations! lol!  Here are some pics of her wearing her special b-day dress. :)

Knot Dress Pattern

Isn't this dress so beautiful!  A customer sent me this photo of her knot dress that she made and I just had to share!  I love the coordinating fabrics and the ribbon and lace!  She has a shop on Etsy as well at www.etsy.com/shop/aidille and her own website at www.aidille.com if you want to check out her other beautiful creations!

Reverse Knot Dress

I love three day weekends!  I finally had a chance to catch up on some sewing projects that I have been wanting to work on!  I made my friend's daughter a dress for her upcoming birthday and I loved it so much that I am going to make my girls some just like it! I think this would be a fun dress to wear to a visit to the zoo!

Reverse Knot Dress

I wanted to create a reverse knot dress that was different from the rest...so this is what I came up with, The Olivia Reverse Knot Dress!  It has a criss cross bodice so that you can add a lot of different fabric combos for that unique boutique look.  I built the straps into the front bodice pattern so that it is a quick sew and the straps are long enough to tie into a bow in the back.  The bodice can even be a great space for appliqués or for adding a fabric flower.  I am planning on making my youngest daughters birthday dress out of this pattern so I'll post a pick when I complete it!  Here are some examples from some of my wonderful pattern testers!  

E-Reader Cover #2!

I've got one more e-reader cover for you and this one takes only two fat quarters for Kindle and Nook products!  This one is super quick, easy and super cute!  With two closure options of velcro or ribbon...or both, this is a project you can do in under an hour!  I love this one the best for it's simplicity and functionality!

Can't decide?  Why not get all three!  I'm offering a bundle package in my Etsy shop for all three e-reader covers for $12.  These are great gifts as well and the iPad version in the e-reader #2 and sleeve patterns are large enough to carry a wipe case and diapers for those quick runs to the store!
