I made six of these little cuties for Christmas. The skirt was super simple with a quilted band in the front.

When I first saw this cute fabric I knew I needed to make this skirt. Here it is--just in time for another granddaughter's birthday!
The fabric is from the Modern love collection by Lizzie B Cre8ive .
Here's the birthday girl trying on her new skirt. Looks like she saved a little birthday cake for later!

Something For Me!
On a recent trip to New York I made a quick (because I had husband and son along) visit to Mood Fabrics. I found this beautiful silk and finally got a cute simple top put together. It's perfect! Just what I wanted!

Time For a Change
I realized I've been sewing with a lot woven fabrics lately and thought it was time for a change. Here's a cute little knit dress that I fell in love with. It was made from Simplicity pattern #8147.
My Cute granddaughter requested a dress with pockets and sleeves just below her elbow. This dress was perfect. The only change I made was to lengthen the sleeves just a bit. If you have some experience with knits, this is a pretty simple dress.

Eyelet Love
I found this beautiful blue eyelet and knew I had to make something for a granddaughter.
Pretty cute!
I used Simplicity Pattern #1433. The dress was pretty straightforward with a couple of exceptions. First of all watch the seam allowances! Some of them are only 3/8". Secondly, I found the armholes to be super large for the size so I had to make adjustments. Other than that, I think it's really a great little dress.

New Sewing Machine
I got a new sewing machine! I love it! I am a true blue Bernina girl so I finally decided on a special edition 530. I wanted to experiment with my new toy so I took a little break from work sewing and made these cute pillowcases for the grandkids. I think they made a cute Valentine's Day Gift!

Guess I've got a thing for corduroy jumpers! Here's my latest.
I used McCall pattern # 6983 and didn't change a thing.
