Fabriculous Fashionista Fun!

There is nothing better than mixing candy sprinkles with Candy Castle's citron twist shrug! They are made for each other. This twist is one of my favorite patterns I have made several for my sister and it was my special top for my 13th birthday.

This close up really shows the details on the twist and the fabric. The twist also has a bow option for the from you can see it here.

This amazing fabric is up for a current preorder at Fabriculous Custom Fabrics. So many cute panels that match too!

This rainbow ice has my heart, well truthfully all the ice. This has to be one of the coolest designs, the sparkle it gives while being soft and the depth this fabric appears to have while being flat blows my mind. I am going to be ordering some of this to make some wallets and bags because its amazing!

The Doris Skirt is my go to for scraps! I think it gives them new life, and every bit of fabric deserves its moment to shine! I will be stocking these on the website in different styles and sizes, always coordinating fabrics but each one will be unique. I can not wait to show them off!

Do you ever feel like you have to many projects? I have so many things I want to create and show everyone, so many ideas and I feel like I need at least another 20 hours each day to even start to catch up!

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!
