summer dresses and summer testers

Hello! I’m alive!
Sorry for falling off the blogging world for a week and a half.

Wish I could say it was for something fun, like spending the week at a beach house with a baby who has no interest in eating sand and children who whistle while they work.  But it wasn’t that lavish.
But the outcome is still pretty fun…..
I was hard at work on the new shorts pattern!
And.
It’s almost done!

It’s now in the hands of pattern testers….but I could use a little more help.  This pattern is for Boys and Girls and has a great range of sizes from 12 months up to 10 years old.  And I need a few more people to test the 9 and 10 year old sizes for me.  If you’re interested please leave a comment here (I only need about 2-3 people). Thanks!

** Update** Wow. You guys are fast with the comments!  I think I have enough people to test the larger sizes. Thank you all for the interest!

And in other summer sewing news….
If you’re looking for a cool new sewing class, Whipstitch just started their Summer Dresses e-Course!  Learn to sew the Modern BabyDoll Dress, the Button Swing Dress, the Drawstring Shift, and even a bonus project! (check out all the info here).

And check out how cute Deborah is, modeling them off.  I love this lady.

Deborah is the energy that makes up Whipstitch and she is 110% fun, talented, smart, funny, and well, just makes you want to sew, and makes you feel like it’s the easiest thing in the world.  You will love her teaching style and the video content to go along.  Woohoo!
Sign up for the class through the end of this week and receive a 10% off discount (the class will cost $99).

Okay, off to sew more shorts, shorts, shorts.
See you tomorrow!
