Last Friday I posted these dresses that I made for my girls. And then I had several emails about how I made the detail on the bodice of Ruth's dress. So today I'm going to share with you what I did. It was really easy and you can add this little ruffle piece to ANY bodice that have or like to use. To start with I cut 2 of the exact same bodice front pieces (the green polka dot fabric). ***Remember you can do this with any bodice of your choice from pretty much any pattern that you ...

$5 Friday—Little Artist ApronTutorial
This week my kids and I finally made our summer to-do list. It's a little different this year but I'm really happy with it and so are the kids.

Gracie’s Must Have Summer Maxi Dress Tutorial
Today I am sharing a quick and EASY girls maxi dress tutorial! I made this dress for Gracie the other night and she wore it all day yesterday...it's a new favorite. When I had the idea I wasn't sure how it would turn out so we used some crazy supplies but now that I've made one I want to make like 10 more and this time use nicer T-shirts and some of the "good" polyester from my secret hoard. If you want to make one of these girls maxi dresses it is seriously the easiest project ever and ... View the Post
A Melon Blocked Skirt
Ok, today I've got another skirt... Right now solids are my favorite fabrics---more than prints...more than stripes...more than polka dots (and that is saying something because I really love stripes and polka dots) and this skirt I can make out of any combination of solids I choose. It's a new favorite of mine and it's really easy to make (one of those nap time projects). Here's how to make one: First measure your little one's waist. Now take the waist measurement and double it. ... View the Post
The Love Me Two Times Skirt
Ok so I made another "Love" skirt. I made the All You Need Is Love Skirt back in February but then last week I got to peruse some of Riley Blake's solids and decided it was time to make another one. But this time using cotton instead of knit and felt. I made it just like our Simple Spring Skirts but just added the word "LOVE" between steps 3 and 4. It was really easy and if you want to make one here's what to do: (I just drew out the letters by hand because, well, I like drawing ... View the Post
