I tried a little something different with the embroidery on this bodice. I’ve never done floral lettering like this and I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out. 😊 Cant wait to see it all sewn up.

Soaking up the last bits of summer Maine has to offer. ☀️Made this from back in June, however I realized after making it I needed to line the skirt. 😂Fabric is a yellow and white stripped seersucker. I had a little fun playing with stripe direction on the bodice and the large patch pockets I added to the skirt.

Finally getting around to posting this sweet girl’s birthday dress, let’s ignore the fact that it’s almost two months later and just focus on how gorgeous she is. 😉 Fabric is from lilac Italian cotton, accented with Pima lilac gingham that went beautifully. Pattern is Honeysuckle dress 😍 A little hand embroidery on the bodice brought it all together. 🦋

Wearing this every day of the week. Seriously the loose fit of it is spot on and makes for a super cozy fall outfit. Loving how this came together.❤

Finding time in the nook is proving difficult as summer wraps up. Sewed up a nice cardi to make the transition to cooler temps a little nicer.

Nothing like a new dress to lift your spirits.

When we found out we were having a girl I immediately delved into the world of mommy and me sets. I searched high and low and become overwhelmingly upset at the lack of options there were for the size and shape of my body. This was a driving reason to learn how to sew. So cheers to body inclusive pattern companies! Mommy and me sets are the best!
