Project Run and Play

Well, my intentions of sewing along with Project Run and Play was a flop. Once again sickness and lack of alone sewing time has left me with only 1 outfit completed. I had intentions to sew along for at least 3 of the 4 weeks.....boo hoo hoo. I have decided that I am still going to get those outfits completed...no deadline has been set...but it is happening!!!!!

Soooooooo...who's going to win?

Pattern Tester

I was lucky enough to be chosen as a pattern tester for Get Your Crap Together. She created the most adorable Shortie Nightgown and Bloomer pattern. Doesn't it just scream cuteness! The pattern is super user friendly and you can create all kinds of different looks with just one pattern (always a plus in my book).

I haven't done all 3 variations of the pattern yet...but am really excited to make Lainey a flannel nightgown. I know she will wear it all the time! I have the tank version done, just waiting for a sunny day to get some shots of her in the tank and bloomers.

Personally I love the bloomers the most! What little girl doesn't look cute in some elastic legged bloomers.

Definitely a Lainey approved pattern!
The pattern will be out February 20th....so mark your calendars!

Project Run and Play January 2014 - Winter Wonderland

Have you heard of Project Run and Play yet? If not you have to check them http://www.projectrunplay.com, amazing right? I have been following them for a long time and every time I say I am going to sew along. Well this is the year it wasn't just something I said!!!

I present to you Lainey's Snowy Sequins Winter Wonderland Outfit

I had seen an outfit similar to this in Chasing Fireflies last fall, and instantly thought Lainey needed an outfit like that. I drafted all of the patterns myself and lined everything in a royal blue and green flannel.

What girl doesn't need a fur bomber hat with sequins?! And of course a flannel lined fur muff to go with it?!

I lined her sequined flat front shorts with white flannel.

She loves it!

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!!!
