Minky Dot Hoodie - made by me this morning!

Since Spring Break is near I was wanting to make a fun color jacket for my girls. We will be going to the beach and maybe to Disney one day and might need this.

I had lots of lime green minky dot fabric.  This hoodie takes a lot of fabric!

I used a hoodie my daughter had from Old Navy as a guide.  Then I peeked at a Simplicity pattern for instructions. I love using another piece of clothing they have as a pattern.  It makes me so much more confident as I am constructing it that it is going to have the proper fit.  And it did!

I was bummed I couldn't get a separating zipper that was lime green.  They had lots of plain zippers lime green but not separating. I made the off-white one work as best as I could.  18" plastic teeth zippers only come in the most basic colors: red, white, black, forest green, royal blue, and off-white.  Who knew?  So proud of this - my first jacket attempt ever!  Tried to cover up the zipper as much as possible.

She has worn it all day long.

New items on their way! How about Mardi Gras bishops?

These awesome dresses and dress sets are from Royal Child.  They should be in to the shop around Feb. 12.  I can ship them out immediately to whoever orders them just as they come to me.  They are up for Pre-Ordering on the site right now.

We have the dress in 2T, 3T, 4T and the dress set with bloomers in 3 mo, 6 mo, 9 mo, 12 mo, 18 mo, and 24 mo.  $38-44.50

To market, to market, with my new badge lanyards to wear!

Lots of people at market do not wear the badge straps they give you.  They have cool ones that are usually handmade.

Sooooo  I decided to go ahead and make some for myself!  

With that being said, I am ready to buy some great stuff for Sara Says Boutique for fall and winter!

I have some new appointments so we will be able to get things in we have never had before, hopefully!
