I also had the pleasure of testing a pattern for Sumo Sweet Stuff. Just loved making these dresses for my girl’s. Very easy to follow instructions so keep an eye out for this one:
I’m also part of a charity drive for Dress a Girl Around the World so will post some pictures of the dresses when they are finished. It’s a great cause and if you love sewing why not take part.
But for now here are a few things I found and loved on the Link Up Party’s last week:

Katie J. Gibson show’s how to make a nursing blanket:

And last but not lest, why not refashion your old t-shirts into something new just like over at Just Down the Hall has:
I’m off to sit in front of my sewing machine. Happy Sewing!!!!!!
