Candy Castles Cappuccino Cardigan is pure LOVE!

This cardigan is a staple! I have some shown here I made in fandom fabrics, The one I am wearing is Supernatural, but it can be made in solid colors as well, and depending on the fabric you like it can be a very cool piece or super warm and cozy. Terrific layering top!

This is a solid blue in bamboo lycra, which is an amazing fabric with lots of drape, and cool to the touch, perfect for layering or warmer climates.

This is another angle of my Supernatural one, it is also bamboo, the length of the drape can be adjusted as well, it does not need to be this long.

This one I created my self by adjusting the original pattern to make a children size, this is made out of double brush polly, think the famous leggings, so while it is super light weight, this fabric does not breath so it is very warm.

This one is made out of cotton lycra, it still has great drape but it is a thicker warmer fabric, but still breathes.

This gives a basic run down of all the cardigan, the extras that can be offered, along with the pricing for it. I am working on a few holiday ones to be listed on my website, or you can always message me for a custom one made just for you.

Month of the Military Child GIVEAWAY!!!

This month I decided to create a little gift collection of sorts that you can win by sharing the pinned giveaway post on my Facebook page and commenting on it. Super easy to enter, but a great package I think. I am going to go into a bit more detail below with each of the 4 items in the package. This is the bear, you will be able to choose from the fabric swatches below which you would like it made out of. No two bears will be exactly alike because of the fabric that is being used, some from actual uniforms, and some that is just printed, because of the design there will be some differences. (These bears are listed on the website for sale as well if you wanted to order others) Next we have a super soft toddler/lap size blanket, you can choose either purple, blue, or black. The saying is the same on all 3, 'I am resilient, I am resolute, I am relentless, I am a Military Child', all of them are the same color on the back with tossed dandelions, the official flower of the Militar...

My love affair with Candy Castle

I have been thinking about what really set me on this path with confidence and conviction; The Peppermint Swirl . My mom saw this dress and really wanted it for my sister, the pattern was purchased in January and there it sat until march with me avoiding it. I admit I was intimidated. It looked so complicated! The above picture is the one she finally talked me into making, if you are not familiar with this dress you will not realize I completely screwed it up, it is supposed to have a swirl not ruffle look. Using my moms Facebook at the time I nervously posted in in Candy Castles group, the response was not what I expected. People LOVED it, they wanted to know how I did it... What?! This mistake started a crazy trend for a hot minute. Something else happened too though, while I had cut it wrong, I made it! I made a really cool dress that Kaylee loved and total strangers were trying to copy! ME! Alyssa Cotter at 12 did that! I kept...

George + Ginger Rival Dress

This is the pattern of the month for February over at George + Ginger Which means its on sale! I am a little later in posting this than I had originally planned but still lots of time to run over and pick it up if you love it as much as I do. This style I am wearing is a sleeveless hooded option. There is also a long, short and 3/4 sleeve, hood, neckband, or cowl neck. All feature the cool pockets on the sides. This is the pocket detail, normally the line would be cleaner and the top and folded over, but I used a couple of panels I had as the pockets so I served the top instead. This Fabric is from Skylove Creations I love the style of this one, that you can use different colors and styles of fabrics to get so many different looks, make it a more fancy, or causal, perfect for work, or like this one Comic Con!
