MOVING!

Isn't there always a lot going on for all of us.  The end of the school year always bring graduations and school programs.  Sports are starting and some are ending.  It is such a busy time of year.  I always look forward to the summer though.  I feel like I get more time to just enjoy my kids, instead of running around every where.
This year is a little different for us.  We will be moving to a new city in a couple days, and at the end of the summer we will be having a baby!  We are very excited for the change, and ready for the new challenge.
Because of so much going on with my family right now, I have decided that I will not sew any custom orders until after Christmas 2012.  Maybe by then I will find some normalcy to my life! hehe  I will continue to sell my patterns and I will still work on the patterns that are ready to go out.  But I will not be designing anything new until January 2013.
I will continue to keep in touch and post on the blog, so please stay posted.  I am truly thankful for all of my followers.

New Purse Pattern Tester

I have been needing a new purse for a while now.  My purse was looking so sad.  The handles were about to tear right in half, and the bottom was getting well worn.  So I had 2 choices, I could either go buy a purse quick and have life be simple, or I could design a new purse and sew it.  Well, I chose the harder path.  I couldn't resist the chance for a new purse.  And I have to tell you, I have been using this purse for at least a week now, and I keep getting so many compliments on it.  Everyone is so amazed that it is handmade!  So I am now looking for pattern testers!



I am needing 2 people to test this pattern for me.  If you would like to test this please leave me a comment below. If you would like an extra point in the drawing, please leave a comment on facebook or twitter and leave me the link to see it (I would appreciate your help in telling people about my shop).  Please leave me a way to contact you if you win!!!
Here's the deal. You get the pattern for free. I only ask that you are able to sew the bag within a week of me emailing it to you, and give me any comments or suggestions you may have.
Contest will last 2 weeks this time and end at midnight, on Wednesday, March 7th.

Princess Dress, Pattern Testers Needed

Time to test this gorgeous dress pattern!!  It has been a favorite in our home.  Both my daughter and my niece have one, and they don't like to take them off.  They feel like a princess.  Every time my daughter wears her dress, she has to find sparkly jewelry to wear with it.


Dress pattern comes in 2 separate patterns.  One pattern has sizes 1-4 and the other has sizes 5-8.
The top of the dress wraps over each other, with a mock sleeve.  The top pattern pieces have a slight curve to give a cute little cap over the shoulders.
Full round twirl skirt with a fun ruffle layer underneath that can add a little pop of color or not even add this if you desire a more simple dress.  Skirt has small bunching all around to make the dress feel like Princess Bell in Beauty and the Beast.

I am needing 2 people to test this pattern for me. I would love to have one for each pattern sizing.  If you would like to test this please leave me a comment below and let me know which pattern sizes you would be willing to test. If you would like an extra point in the drawing, please leave a comment on facebook or twitter and leave me the link to see it (I would appreciate your help in telling people about my shop).  Please leave me a way to contact you if you win!!!
