Baby Nicholas was born yesterday early in the morning! Labor was not easy (is it ever?) but luckily it was complication-free and everyone is doing well. I’m itching to start sewing clothes for myself but that will have to wait a week or so … for now I’m lying in bed with my new snook and being catered to 🙂

This Garden Party caught my eye a few weeks ago, and many others’, too, judging by the Flickr comments! It is so simple but perfect with the bias-cut accents.

@Jane, I LOVE that Ice Cream dress on your daughter. So sweet.

Three years ago: Sisters at 1.5 and 2.5 years in Ice Cream tops.

Last summer: Nearly 4 and nearly 5 in mash-up flower girls dresses using Bubble and Music Box patterns.

Aw, thanks @motherof5 and @vothgirl, I am blushing. It is such a great pattern, I want a closet full of them.

I love Thread Theory Tiina.

Ok, I went back on my word and cut an apple picking dress anyway. I decided on the pink check winter twill for it – no one will believe me if I say “it” decided it had to be chosen! Anyway, I am looking forward to finishing it as I belive the fabric choice was perfect – screams classic little girl dress! I have only made this dress once before and…[Read more]

On doing some simple construction and getting a little sewing time in, I got started on a tiny apple picking dress. The big problem is that I keep for some unknown reason sewing the skinny placket backwards so the folded edge is the wrong way! I have two skinny plackets, both backward!

@Reeni I can’t seem them either. 🙁

Nicole, I sew men’s patterns from old Finnish sewing magazines and I have also sewn Thread Theory patterns for my husband.

@Reeni, I am sorry, my jolly computer won’t show your photos.

She looks incredible! Totally should put her on the pattern cover – love the combo of fabrics she used. Can’t wait to get this pattern for myself!

How radiant does Britters look?

Modelling her Gallery tunic.

Easter 2011… I think this was before I stated making o+S dresses for Easter. His might be a Sketchbook shirt?
sorry no good pictures! Vid instead. Her own sketched mods to Fairytale, and his Field trip raglan.
For good measure, her first day of Pre-K, in a playdate dress.
