The Annual Spring Cleaning Sale!
I have been working hard  really hard, marking down tons of fabulous collections to make room for all the new Spring collections heading our way. Isn't Spring Cleaning fabulous!  I really should have been cleaning my house, but looking at cute and fun fabric all week long was much more fun!
I'm like a cat lady, only with fabric!  These bolts are my life, and I hate to see some of them go, even though I know you will make a good home for them.

All these collections will remain on sale until they are gone. And once they are gone, they're gone!  All these prints have been discontinued and CAN NOT be re-ordered!

Now, how about I sweeten the deal a little bit.....

New Fabric Friday

I can't believe it is Friday already.
FRIDAY the 13th in fact!!!

I will wish you all good luck today, and please wish it for me!

I am taking all 3 kids to a few Antique stores this morning.

Hopefully I find something awesome, and nothing gets broken!

You are in luck today if you LOVE cute fabric!

We have added some "Delicious" prints to the shop this week!

Apple of My Eye from Riley Blake Designs

Shut the front door. It is ridiculously delicious, right?

We have both Yardage and Pre-cuts.

Eat 'em up!

I love the Apple Polka Dot and the Herringbone prints!

 

 Also new in the shop this week is

School Days by American Jane

This print is almost too much to handle!

Makes me feel like a kid again.

 Restocks of note:

All Fly a Kite prints are back in stock this week, and we have also added Fat Quarter Sets of this ever popular children's collection.

 We have also added this adorable print to the Peak Hour Collection!

 

Now, maybe Friday the 13th isn't your LUCKY day,

but perhaps MONDAY will be!

Something BIG is going to go down on Monday, so be sure to check back here!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Easter

We had a fabulous Easter, thanks for asking.

Just the right amount of sunshine, family, egg hunting and treats.

Well, maybe not treats. 

You can NEVER have too many Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs. I have convinced my 5 and 3 year old that they are yucky and they should give them all to me. 

Shhhh. I might be able to pull that off at Christmas too!

Between egg hunts, family parties and just trying to entertain the kids during their time off from school, I managed to throw together a few last minute Easter outfits for the girls.

Blood. Sweat. Tears. And maybe even a few naughty words.

No more "last minute" dresses. Never again.

But at least they turned out cute, right?

My little Ivy Jane's dress was my favorite. Love these fabrics!

Promenade Damask in Yellow   &  Hometown Cross Town in Sky

    

And Brooke's simple little skirt was made with these two fabrics,

Painter's Canvas in Brown    &    Taza Stripe in Yellow

  

And I used THIS tutorial for the skirt!

I sure love that color combo. 

I hope you are all having a fabulous Spring.

I'll be back on Friday with what's new in the shop!

A Basket of Bunnies

Literally.

A basket filled with the sweetest little stuffed bunnies.

Scrappy little friends, who are fun and easy to assemble.

 Roll Call......

Alright, alright. I may have gotten a little carried away.

But that little "Bunny Rainbow" sure does makes me smile!

A few days ago I made these classic linen bunnies as a gift for my Mother-in-law,

(she may have watched my very sick 8 month old for an entire week while I partied away at Disneyland)

She deserves a whole lot more than bunnies.....but they are a cute start.

I loved their vintage look, and actually have made 4 more just like them.

Seriously. When I say I have been stuffing bunnies all weekend, I am NOT lying. 

My kids saw the bunnies and wanted one of their very own to snuggle.

Do you want to make one too?

Good!

Here's the HOW TO!

You will need:

*1 Bunny Template HERE ( or just right click and save, and then print on your computer) 

This one makes the smaller bunnies.

*Scraps, or about 5" of fabric

*Pencil

*Stuffing

*Pinking Shears (optional)

* Ribbon and Pom Poms for accessories

 Okay, let's get started.

1. Turn your fabric right sides together, doubling it up, and lay your template on the wrong side of the fabric.

 2. Trace your cute little bunny friend.

 3. Grab your pinking shears, or regular scissors if you so choose, and cut that baby out.  Cut through both layers. You should now have two bunnies. (pinking shears will keep it from fraying a lot.  If you use regular scissors I would suggest finishing the edges with a serger or a zig zag stitch)

 4. Now lay your bunnies wrong sides together, right sides out.

 5. And you are going to stitch around the bunny just using a basic straight stitch.  Or you could get fancy with a decorative stitch....whatever floats your Easter boat, ladies.

 Be sure to leave a little opening at the bottom so you can stuff him up.

 6. And stuff him you will!  Those ears can be tricky, just hum a little bunny tune, I'm sure that will get you through it.

 7. Once he is plumped up to your liking, sew up his bum.

Add whatever accessories you wish, and before you know it they will start multiplying like, well, BUNNIES!

Admit it, this was easy.  And since they are just so darn cute, make a bunch more!

 And then take them outside and parade them around.

No? Just me.  

That's alright.  My kids have already loved them to pieces.

Literally.

Next bunch might need to be reinforced!

So "hop" on over to your sewing machine and whip up a few long-eared friends.

I bet you can't make just one ;)
