2nd Birthday Celebration & Blog Tour {Day 3}

Patterns· Shop

It’s Day 3 of my 2nd Birthday Celebration & Blog Tour. Don’t forget that all of my patterns are on sale this week. I’m excited to share these projects with you today!

Veronica blogs at SewVery. We met online while participating in the Perfect Pattern Parcel blog tours and are both part of the Betz White Sewing Collective this year. Veronica sews lots of bags (including my Water Bottle Tote and Retro Rucksack…), as well as clothes for her children and home projects. She has a fun modern style and has just released her first pattern—the Sunny Dress & Top—for little girls.

I am especially thankful that Veronica recommended me as a contributor to On The Go Bags last year. The book is now available and we’ll both be posting more about it (plus giving away a copy!) this week!

Here’s a detail from Veronica’s Fairport Pouch. I love this knotted handle. Head over to her blog to see the whole bag and read more about the pattern!

Stephanie blogs at Swoodson Says. Stephanie invited me to join her Facebook group for creative bloggers last year. I can’t tell you how helpful it is to be part of a supportive group that happily shares information and resources. I’m thankful that Stephanie keeps the group positive and encouraging.

Swoodson Says is filled with creative sewing & craft ideas, with a focus on making things with and for the kids. Stephanie also has several creative play patterns that would make great gifts! Head over to her blog to see the playful modifications she made to the Highland Avenue House. It has a door that opens and closes, with cute little surprises for the kids to find!

Vicky used one of my free tutorials to make a quilted sketch book cover. She upcycled some old shirts to make this manly version. Such a great way to give the shirts new life! Vicky blogs at Vicky Myers Creations, where she shares her love of repurposing and recycling fabrics to make beautiful things. She also has an Etsy shop with cute bags and organizers made from repurposed fabrics. Visit Vicky’s blog to find out more about her sketchbook cover project.

Ajaire shares her projects and patterns at Call Ajaire. I think I first met Ajaire through our participation in the Perfect Pattern Parcel blog tours. You may have seen her popular monthly mash-up posts where sewing bloggers share ideas for mixing & combining patterns. She also has a pattern shop with some cute kids clothes, including her new Paneled Sunsuit pattern.

Ajaire made 2 Coastal Totes as gifts for her friends! If you’ve been intimidated by the rope handles on this pattern, you’ll definitely want to see how Ajaire made it work with regular strap webbing.

This year has been an emotional roller coaster for This year has been an emotional roller coaster for me...how about you? I’ve had some really amazing licensing partnerships and we’ve enjoyed a lot of growth as a family. But I’ve also experienced a lot of hurt and disappointment over circumstances that I cannot control.

Emotions overwhelm me...so I usually just don’t. I’ve had to learn to feel some things this year and just sit in the overwhelm. I’m sure you’ve been there.

Not much to do with the image, but here’s a happy flower bouquet for you and maybe a friend could use one too. 🪴☀️ Lean into the hard and find ways to come out of it stronger and moving forward.

Looking for a sewing project? I designed this back Looking for a sewing project? I designed this back when I was going to stores with 5 kids under 6 (how did I even?). I needed a bag that allowed me to have free hands. This one can be worn as a backpack or as a crossbody.

Happy little houses ❤️ I reworked this pattern Happy little houses ❤️ I reworked this pattern without the barns. It coordinates with the neighborly art prints I added to the shop a few weeks ago...a reminder that we need each other. Intentional community ☺️

My favorite part of pattern design is changing color palettes. Which is your favorite?

Have you made a Water Bottle Tote yet? Whether you are going out or staying in, you can keep everyone’s water bottles contained and organized.

Just a reminder i have this pattern in the shop in case you need a solution for this ☺️

Have you adopted more plants this year? I’ve man Have you adopted more plants this year? I’ve managed to keep some succulents alive for a few years, so I’ve slowly been adding a few more houseplants.

This isn’t one of them, but I thought it would be fun to decorate a planter for the #hollyjollydesignchallenge - to illustrate over an image. Plain pot to happy painted pot 🪴

Another quick design prompt for the @hollyjollydesignchallenge ...
These short design projects have been a good way to rest and experiment with some new work. Having a specific end product in mind really makes the design process easier.

These are coordinating winter coffee cup patterns. I prefer a seasonal vibe over super theme-y Christmas designs. How about you?

Hopeful for the day when our space is filled with Hopeful for the day when our space is filled with friends again! We bought this house with hospitality in mind. Not being able to invite people in has been challenging me to extend hospitality in other ways...loving and supporting our community from a distance.

It’s worth reaching out to people, even from a distance. You never know how a small gesture might be just what someone needs to make through another hard day. ❤️

We watched a family Christmas movie a couple nights ago and I doodled all these mugs while we watched. They were begging to become a pattern. What do think? Gift wrap next year?
