ruffle circle skirt

I saw this dress and thought I really need to make this!
I love everything about this, the color, the skirt, the halter tie.
Adorable!!

Look at how fun this dress is!


So I found this out-dated beauty!

And added some personal touches

the shearing was totally new to me

Turned out great, if I do say so myself!

The tie is adorable!



I can not get enough of the ruffle
think of the twirling!







I am crossing my fingers it fits! 
and I am looking forward to seeing some action shots

this dress is a 5T, but I can make it in other sizes, please message me if you are interested in purchasing one for your little lady

thanks for checking this out!!

Easter Dress

I started to panic Friday........
My youngest daughter didn't have an Easter dress!!
What have I been doing with my time???
So I found this shirt, super cute flowery print with a great collar and sleeves 

a close up of the pretty flowers

SO I made my little lady an easter dress!
 LOVE IT!


Super sweet cuffs <3

Izzy suggested the light blue tie, I love it!
As soon as it was finished she HAD to wear it

 siting with Marshel and her cereal
 OH, i see what is happening....
 looking for some more? 
 let me pick these up 
 OH NO, mom is watching!!

I finally got the dress off her after her and Marshel ate all the cereal.
and
She got to wear it for Easter

 Down the slide


BAM! add a sweater and a sun hat it is perfect!
What a wonderful day it was
It was difficult to get the dress off, when it was time for bed

look for more dress-shirt Dresses coming soon, long sleeve & short sleeve

Things worth checking out!!



This week I would love to introduce you all to some great companies that are worth checking out.


Lets check out a local (to me, here in Vermont) Momma that is sewing up a storm!


Chris at Blue Dog Designs is an incredible up-cycling friendly seamstress that does some great things!
check out her gorgeous handiwork

She did this whole series on felt play food
AMAZING!!
I don't know about you but, I want to EAT the kiwis, and look at the pear seeds


TEA and cupcakes anyone?
what little person wouldn't love this to play with.
SO GREAT!

check out her up-cycled T-shirt Bibs.
love how they fit and how easy they are to care for.
bibs for the serious eater
and the best part, your little one can not take it off with the great snaps in the back ;)

keep an eye out for a special team project from
 Blue Dog Designs and Three Little Ladys

If anyone is in the market for a rubber stamp this is the 
company to check out for sure
Not only do they have a great product but their customer service is amazing!
I was surfing the web looking for custom stamps, I am so happy I stumbled upon Simon Stamp. I placed my order, but I guess when my logo was downloaded it wasn't as clear as it should have been. The company emailed me  right away requesting a new file of the photo. They had they stamp made the next day and delivered to my door step within 4 days. The stamp is exactly what I wanted.

thank you


Along with the stamp I really wanted custom labels, but honestly I didn't want to spend a small fortune.
I was reading a blog, I wish I could remember which one :(
but they directed me to Spoon flower custom fabrics. So you can make custom fabric that you can cut to use as labels, genius!!
this company is fantastic! GREAT products and service.
At  first I must admit I was a little intimidated by the whole thing, sizing, resizing, the borders, the DPI....
they walk you through it and there is a great tutorial on how to make labels using photoshop, but you can also use picture monkey and other photo editors 
 hey, if I can do it, so can you!
You can make them any size with logos, pictures, text there is even a trick on how to get them to NOT fray once you cut them


Thank you 
I LOVE MY LABELS!



I hope you take the time to check out these great products

Have an idea or a product that is great, let me know about it
Thanks for checking this out!
