A Present For Mothers and Daughters Alike!

Dear Sewers,

Starting today, the website will start the Mother's Day sale with a dozen patterns that will be great presents for all mothers! Including the most viewed & hot item, the Nevena Bag! Catered toward's gifts for mothers & their needs!

Some of the recommended patterns include something like the Charlotte Women's Mary Jane & the Priscilla Women's Shoes for the indoor comfort. Or the Eco-Friendly Shopping Bag for those short shopping trips :). Whatever gift you are looking for, you'll find the perfect gift for Mother's Day here!

I've been hard at work with my new book for C&T which focuses on quilted patterns so it's no surprise quilts have been a thing in my mind for a long time! The bag focuses on the recycling aspect of utilizing old clothing & leftover fabrics. I would personally recommend using worn out jeans!


Melissa Quilted Bag - 50% OFF NEW RELEASE SALE
I originally designed this pattern as a gift for my daughter during my early years as a designer. As such, I wasn't confident with it so it was kept in the backroom for a long time - until now! Going back through older pictures, I found this bag and honestly thought it wasn't as bad as I remembered. I want to present this gift now from me to you!

Dear Sewers,

Free Pattern for All Dress Buyers - Including Previous Purchases!
As some of you might be aware, the last few months I've been busy with various dress patterns through multiple inspirations! This has led to a lot of requests for a matching leggings pattern - which is here today! The Brooke Leggings comes in both baby & girl's sizes.

The pattern is completely FREE for all apparel pattern buyers such as dresses, jackets, and capes! This includes all previous buyers! I know that leggings are a very comfortable match for a lot of dresses & skirts so I hope you can enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them.

Vicky Baby Backpack - the Grown Up Version!
With the successful reception of the Vicky Baby Backpack last week, I also had a barrage of requests for an adult version to go along as well. And coincidentally - or not - I was actually working on it the whole time! The pattern was intended to be released in both the baby & grown up models so to all those asked, thank you for being interested!

Zara Bag Pattern!
I have a personal pet peeve where bags that are fashionable yet practically less useful tend to bug me more than it should. But being in the industry you, tend to face these types of products all the time. So I wanted to find the perfect middle ground between the two!

The ruffles for the Zara Bag are the main point of focus as this oversized piece of art can store everything that you need during a vacation with it's secure zipper closing.

Spring Fever Isn't Over Yet!

I had recently gotten MacBook for my work, and had difficulty carrying it around with me - it's actually my first laptop. So with that in mind, I got to work on a special bag just for it. Although it wasn't the easiest of bags for me to make, I eventually came out with an adorable design, that I liked very much. I don't think I will have too much trouble taking the laptop with me anymore so here I am proud to announce the Acelynn bag!

With spring being a recurring theme in my recent works. I decided to continue it's trend with a new dress! Although the dress can stray away from spring weather and towards summer. It can still be perfect wear for all the sunshine in the future! The dress being specifically designed for style and ease, it allows for fluid movement and fit comfortably. With that the Jayleen dress, will most certainly impress!

Spring Fever, the dresses are here!

Dear Sewers,

I've been meaning to do a more traditional dress - or skirt - for the month of March, but it appears it'll be aimed towards the April 1st release date! The Adalyn Dress was conceived last year for my niece with only a single size to fit her. Grading the pattern wasn't a possibility due to the time restraint.

Since then she's been wearing the dress with so much love, that this year she requested a larger version! So I decided to work out a full pattern from the 6 month baby to the 10 year old girl - and present to you what was once my niece's birthday present! A simple everyday dress that can be worn best with a cardigan, I hope your children (or grand children!) like these as much as my niece did throughout the last year!
