Patterns for Pirates Boyfriend Vneck

Patterns for Pirates Boyfriend Vneck

I’ve committed one of the biggest sins, being a Pirate girl.  I never made myself a Boyfriend Vneck.  I bought the pattern a million years ago, always intended to make it happen….and then never got around to it.  Officially, I can be taken off the naughty list!  I also don’t know what took me so long to make one of these….sorry Judy!

Erin from Thread Therapy Fabrics contacted me about her new round of custom prints and asked if I wanted to sew something up with her geometric roses.  Yes, girl.  YES.  Of course.  I am a huge sucker for a geo print and I ADORE floral fabrics.  Sign me up!

Monaluna | Simple Life Blog Tour

Monaluna | Simple Life Blog Tour

Gemia (Phat Quarters) and Kelly (Handmade Boy) contacted me about this tour and I jumped at the opportunity.  An all boys tour?  With fun, new, boy-friendly fabrics?  Yes, yes, yes!

I wasn’t familiar with Monaluna fabrics until now, but I am so glad that I’ve been introduced!  Based in California, it’s a husband-wife team of independent fabric designers, who specialize in organic fabrics with fresh, modern designs.  Their newest line “Simple Life” is darling and perfectly geared toward the boys…yet still totally appropriate for all ages and genders.

I Have to Hand It To You | Free Valentine’s Day Card Printable!

I Have to Hand It To You | Free Valentine’s Day Card Printable!

We totally had a plan for Louis’ Valentine’s Day cards but failed to make them happen.  So last night, we went to Michaels and wracked our brains for something quick and easy we could put together for his classmates.  I don’t know why ponybead friendship bracelets are so endearing to me…they just are!  So we decided to write out each of the kiddo’s names and gift them some new fun bracelets to wear.

Boys Can Wear Pink :: Season 3

Boys Can Wear Pink :: Season 3

We’re baaaaaaack!  Today is the kickoff of Boys Can Wear Pink: Season 3.  It’s one of my favorite tours ever.  Not only for my love of breaking down gender stereotypes one blog post at a time, but also because BCWP was my first ever blog tour to be in, two years ago.  Fun, right?  (Also I love Kelly from Handmade Boy and will practically do anything that woman asks of me.)

Big Nice Wolf

Big Nice Wolf

Louis was home due to a school break on Friday, Bennett was at school all day, and I was home with Lou….trying to get some work done while having him in my studio.  It wasn’t an easy task.  So many requests and distractions.  And he spilled his drink on my cutting table THREE times.  Three.  It was a red drink and it got everywhere.  Three times, it got everywhere.

Instead of getting angry and freaking out like I wanted to, I decided to task Louis with designing his own outfit that we could make together.  He checked out the fabrics that I had laying around, grabbed some markers and got to designing.  After crossing out three of his illustrations, he came up with this.  So cute.
