Fashionista Dreams

When Toy Story 4 was about to hit theaters my little sister asked to go see it, but she has never seen the first 3, she's only seen the shorts. So my mom told her she needed to watch the first 3 and if she liked them and could sit through them then my dad would take her.  No one expected her to make it through 1 let alone all 3 marathon style. When she finished watching all 3 she immediately asked how soon she could go. Maybe a bit of a backfire lol.  After seeing the 4th one, she could not stop talking about Bo. That is her favorite, so for Christmas she got a Bo pop, which of course had to join her in these pictures. I made her this fun skirt with large pockets, out of border print. It wasn't my original plan, but I accidentally didn't order enough for what I had thought to make for her, but I think this turned out really cute and she's thrilled with it! 

This panel is one of my favorites from the current Space & Science round over at  Royal Pixie . Taking pictures of my sister in her new pj's and she told me she had the perfect pose, and she was right! I loved it!  Kaylee loves the stars, space and reading, so of course I made another reading pillow and several styles of bookmarks. She was a bit bummed when I said they weren't for her to keep.  This planet fabric and the galaxy print both look so great on book marks, they will be a part of our read across America promotion starting later this month.                                                                                                    There are still a few days if you would like ...

I made the coolest outfit for my sister! She was disappointed that she wasn't getting anything from this round so I looked at my scraps and came up with the best idea! I made her the new Truffle skirt from  Candy Castle , with all the ruffles it was perfect for the random pieces I had.  I paired it with a dolman from  Phat Quarters  that I made into a crop because this skirt needed a skull crop. I think the end result is very rocker... She however is more cute than rocker lol, we did have a lot of fun with the pictures though  This round from  Fabriculous  is seriously epic you really need to check it out! 

I thought this print would be perfect for my little Hawaii loving Princess sister. This movie has such a special place for us having lived here now, just a different perspective to nature, the islands and the people.  I wanted something that would show off the print really well, and be perfect for the weather here, even in January its warm and sunny most days.  Kaylee is a huge fan of the  Banana Pudding  from candy castle, so I knew it was what this panel needed to be from  Lilyrose Fabrics . 

Travel with me back to December 2018, I shared a scarf I made into  Fabriculous  custom fabrics, I thought it was really cool and wanted to show it off. Out of no where the owner Mandi commented on it and asked if I had a store, and then shared it to her business page and placed an order! Now this might not have been my first order ever, but I mean she could sew this herself! I shared how exciting that was all over to family and friends 🤣 Flash forward a month, I was getting ready for a little family vacation to a resort here on the island, making a bunch of things to take on the trip, cause thats the way I roll. I get a message from Mandi, offering me some strikes if I was interested, and of course I was!  I got them the day I was leaving for a few and made some pegs right away cause I was so excited, not only strikes and so many of them, but sewing themed! Talk about a dream offer.   I wanted to wow Mandi, because this was a HUGE op...

'...and I want to sing!" - Kaylee The Lorax is my sisters favorite, it speaks to her on a deep level. She is forever saying that the plants,  ocean, and animals are her babies. She takes it very seriously and find no humor in the idea of someone harming any of them. Our dad isn't even allowed to skip rocks unless she asks them first 🙂 I embroidered the Lorax and some Truffula trees on the front of her top, she was so excited to see them.  I took the pink color way for this current round over at  Fabriculous custom Fabric  and paired it with her pink faux denim. They compliment each other so well! I used them to make this raglan from  Patterns for Pirates I made her some matching socks with the scraps from my fat half, the new no shows from  The Wolf & the Tree , I made her the regular, she likes them more slipper style, the joys of island living wearing normal socks feels weird.   These are some ...

Doesn't this just scream Kaylee? If you have been following along for a while now, or know my family personally, you know my sister needs no help from anyone! There will be no knight needed here.  When I saw this graphic from the current round over at The Fabric Geeks , I was so excited about it.  I knew I wanted to make her a mini swagger, now the sugar pea from  Gober Pea , it has enough sass, but can be total kick butt too.  I added 3 of the star power ups embroidered on the front ruffle too, because I am so excited about the new machine I am added touches everywhere, and they are her favorite power up!  There are several other really cute designs up this round, a life is full of choices panel and some of the amazing coordinates for bags as well. There is still time to get in on this order if you are interested just let me know!
