A Little Something Else I've Been Working On








Can it get any more Girly? Here's another design I have been working on. This is "Clara's Dress". Inspired by one of our favorite Christmas traditions. . .  "The Nutcracker". This is actually the same design as Abby's Christmas Dress last year that I came up with and I thought that perhaps I should turn this one into a pattern as well. "Clara" is filled with so many pretty little details and lots and lots of lace and ribbon. Perfect for an extra special holiday dress. "Clara" also features a squared neckline which is something a little different from all my other designs. Then of course, it just wouldn't be complete without a pretty sash that ties into a big pretty bow in the back. Abby said "she felt like a princess in this dress". I hope to have this pattern available by early November-ish. Just in time for the holidays. I have had so many ideas for making this design. Just imagine it in a gorgeous jewel tone silk, or better yet how about in velvet! Think Emerald Green, Scarlet, or even in Sapphire. Oh, this one has endless possibilities! What do you think?

very pretty - I can definitely see the reference to Clara from the Nutcracker. This would be lovely for the holidays.

This is fabulous! I have a piece of fabric in the stash just calling out to me. I'm looking forward to this pattern.

Jumping up & down with excitement! Have the material, have been looking for the perfect pattern for Christmas dresses. Absolutely cannot wait to get my hands on this pattern... (and can I just say how much easier your patterns are for me to use than "traditional" patterns? Just finished making Kirstin's skirt for my girls, and I think you might have ruined me forever for traditional patterns. Can you do some baby boy rompers or bubble suits, pretty please?). So excited!
