Great idea, Barb! I love hearing about people sewing for the home!
I love that blue polka dot fabric! Have hankered after a red polka dot dress for a while, but blue would probably suit me better… I just checked out the Amelia dress pattern you mentioned, it really is lovely! Thanks for the chance!
Toffeepops, since you like red, a pair or red espadrilles would look darling with a blue and white polka dot summer dress:) Thanks for stopping by today!

I’m inspired to try sewing a dress for a little girl:)
I want to make myself a new bag/purse, just need to decide on pattern/size. It needs to be big enough for me, but not so big that the whole family thinks I can carry their stuff… (maybe I need to be really selfish and sew each a nice bag (means more sewingtime for me ;) ) than they will have NO excuse to try to use me to carry their stuff)
Ha! I am in the process of transitioning to smaller bags myself. After years of packing everything but the kitchen sink in a tote to go anywhere with small kiddos, I can finally pack minimally and I want a smaller purse! I hope to share my Madeleine bag here in a few days:)
I’ve just bought the Scout Tee pattern and now I really want to make it in that crazy lovely blue dot double gauze you sell!! Fingers crossed!

The polka dot double gauze or the Cloud 9 voile for a summer top from my new japanese sewing book - the only problem is choosing which one…
