Perfect Pattern Parcel #2 - What I Made!

So, I'm sure by now, pretty much everyone in the sewing blogosphere has heard about Perfect Pattern Parcel, but if you haven't, here's the scoop:

You get a bunch of great patterns by some great designers.  You choose your price.  You support indie designers, AND support children's education through Donor's Choose.  Seriously.

Here's the patterns from Parcel #2:

Hanami Top or Dress by Straight Grain Hosh Pants by LoubeeClothing Celestial Tee by Figgy’s September Tunic & Dress by Too Sweets Patterns Caroline Party Dress by Mouse House Creations BONUS pattern: Prefontaine Shorts by Made With Moxie

And, here's what I made:

 

Seriously, I made all these great looks (two dresses, one tunic, one top, two pairs of pants and one pair of shorts) from some seriously great patterns!

Here's a few photos from my bazillion I took over this past week - also with Kids Clothes Week going on:









I'm going to do a separate post for each pattern/pattern combination, so stay tuned for a lot more pictures and details of my sewing experience.  AND, a new "feature" on my blog posts - Julia's Views.  Yes, you'll get the scoop on what a 4 year old thinks of her new outfits.  Unfiltered and unvarnished.  Wait for it!



Perfect Pattern Parcel #2

Thanks so much to the folks at Perfect Pattern Parcel for asking me to contribute - I so enjoyed it and am happy to be a teeny tiny part of their wonderful program!

    You've blog us away! Holy cow, you sewed the whole Parcel! Love it. The Hosh/Celestial outfit is just adorable, and the Caroline Dress is awesome. That fabric makes me want one in my size.

      Thanks Jill! I felt like if you guys were nice enough to send all the patterns, the least I could do is use them all!

      Julia LOVES the striped top. She keeps taking it out of the dirty clothes to wear it. In fact, she's wearing it now.....after having worn it last night.....

    Gorgeous clothes! I especially love the Celtics outfit (I have spent almost all my life in New England so they are who we root for). I am looking forward to Julia's views.

      You should try them. They fit perfectly on my daughter. She's a size 4, and they fit slim, but not too tight.

    I know this is a late comment - but I just found this and the black bow and lacings look on the cream/white, bottom, back pant legs is adorable! How did you do it?
