Chalk and Notch Anniversary and Waterfall Release

Chalk and Notch Anniversary and Waterfall Release

Such an exciting post today! I love getting to be part of the creation process with pattern designers.  Today I’m sharing about a new pattern release from Chalk and Notch as well as celebrating the Chalk and Notch patterns one year anniversary.  Excitement is floating

Oh my goodness! The Pandalicious Tour is here! I just can’t even believe that I get to sew up some of the Art Gallery Fabrics Pandalicious line by Katerina Roccella for you to see. *This post is sponsored by Art Gallery Fabrics, but my opinions and emotions of excitement are my own. I’ve been eyeing this fabric since it first hit the web and I just love it! I’ve put together a sister set for my little ladies to show off some of this awesome line.  Check out my creations, then be sure to read about the multiple giveaways for the tour.

Panda10

 

I stitched up this first outfit with Ni hao Fairies Yu for the top and Panda Patches Blue for the shorts.  If you haven’t put your hands on Art Gallery fabrics you are certainly missing out.  The wovens are so soft and smooth to the touch and sew beautifully!  The Pleat Fold Top from Madeit patterns was a perfect match for the Papillon Shorties from Lil Luxe Collection.  Lil Luxe is also a sponsor for this post and I was so excited to get to stitch up the shorties.

For outfit number two I used the Hidden Panda Cottonbud.  I love how the little pandas just peak out in this fabric.  It’s a soft and fun design! Perfect for a little person to sport in a romper.  I used the Summer Romper for kids, a FREE pattern from Purl SOHO. This romper was simple and the fit was great. A pattern I will definitely use again.  It is so hot here right now, so cool clothes are a must!

It’s time for some summer fun! I just love the idea summer, and sun, and all things hot… and you should too! (You are a parent of small people if you just read that in an Olaf voice.) I love that I get to spend

Can you believe it’s hump day for the tour? We are at the center mark and loving all the creations!

2Kicking of the day today is Karly from Paisley Roots.  She has been an awesome help and had so many good ideas to make this tour great!  Check out her quick sew and while you are at it, check out her sponsor features from last week if you missed those.

13340174_10154263981112803_7460305801504653146_o Linda Rose from Sew Happily Ever After did some sewing for boys.  I’m so glad to see some boy sews for all the boy moms out there.  I wouldn’t know one thing about sewing for boys, but I’m sure it can be just as rewarding as sewing for girls.  Linda is sharing a 30 minute sew! That means I could sew 4 or 5 of these in the time my washer and dryer would cycle through.  That’s pretty awesome.

Valerie Sneak

Valerie of Élégantine! has nailed it with her sneak.  Why wash when you can have new?  My favorite thing about Valerie’s blog is it is bilingual!  I’m so amazed by this I just have to check it out when I see a new post.

FABulous Home Sewn

Fenna from FABulous Home Sewn has stitched up some shorts for us to check out.  I REALLY must know how long these took to create.  It looks like there is a lot of stitching detail and I’m curious as to what the looks like on the clock.  Fenna might just be a stitching master.

Rebelandmalice sneak

Melissa of Rebel & Malice is sharing her anti-laundry creation.  Another skirt hits the machine.  I’m thinking I should be sewing more skirts and doing less laundry.  Plus, it’s summer and who doesn’t like something nice and breezy to keep you cool?

Make Laundry 1

Deb of Sprouting JubeJube is bringing in some selfish sewing along with some others. I love the sewists that sew for themselves.  I really should do it more.  Check out her makes and decide if you need to do some selfish sewing too!
