"ONCE upon a time there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess; but she would have to be a real princess. He travelled all over the world to find one, but nowhere could he get what he wanted. There were princesses enough, but it was difficult to find out whether they were real ones." ~Hans Christian Anderson We have been playing Princess and the Pea around here lately....and as fun as the story is I do think that there is an important underlying theme. No, it's not that they are going to ... View the Post
DIY PVC Pipe Princess Dress Rack—A How To
Ok...I know! PVC Pipes and Princess Dresses...it's a weird project...really weird. But I don't care. And my girls are crazy about it so it's what I'm sharing today. Here's the story: Awhile back Deborah from over at Sew Much To Give posted some hangers that she had made for her granddaughters princess dresses. Then she hung those princess dresses on a low bar so the girls had easy access to the dresses. It was brilliant. And I wanted to do the same thing However, I didn't have a great area ...

The Vintage Sundress Pattern
Today we are over at We All Sew sharing our Vintage Sundress Pattern that I have been working on behind the scenes for awhile now, and I am very excited to be sharing it with all of you today. I feel like this dress is kind of a momentous occasion around here (even though it's really not--I am totally being dramatic) but is the first time that I patterned-drafted completely from scratch for more than one size. I think I tested it about 8 or 10 times and although I am still nervous ... View the Post
A Cross-stitched Shirt
I really meant for this shirt to be in the Spring Look Book, but alas it didn't get there. But maybe I should just be glad it got finished (and not in the projects of doom pile) and hopefully it will look just as cute with shorts, which reminds me....I have got to make this girl some shorts. Both liZ and I are pretty much in LOVE with anything cross-stitched right now (you may or may not see another similar project tomorrow) but the top was a fun sew. And I like fun sews lately.... I made ... View the Post
An Easy Swimming Suit Cover Up Tutorial
Things are about to get crazy around here. Ok maybe not girls-gone-wild crazy but tutorial-fun-and-projects-we've-been-dying-to-post kind of crazy. So I decided that if I want to share Gracie's swimsuit cover up (which has already been worn far more often than it should have been by June 3rd) then I better post it today before all the madness begins. I originally posted it over on the Terra's blog (one of the nicest people I've ever "met") but today I am reposting here to start off the ... View the Post
Drop Waist Skirt Tutorial
Today I get to start sharing Gracie's Spring Look Book. I really should start with my inspiration post but I'm too excited so I'm going to just jump right in and share my inspiration later...maybe on Wednesday. This is the first look that I made for Grace. We just registered her for kindergarten so there has been a lot of talk about school next year---including what "school girls" wear which is where the idea for this look came from. (She doesn't have to wear a uniform but still thinks ... View the Post
