Just a few more new pattern covers to show off. I’ve really been having fun with these!
New Cover for the Charlie Tee & Hoodie
I mentioned in my last post that I’m working on sewing up new samples of each of my patterns to update my covers. I’m using Michael Miller fabrics for the ones that I’m working on right now. (You already know how much I love Dino Dudes!) It’s spring here and perfect for getting outside to take pictures. I’m thrilled…
Boy Oh Boy, The Ad
Squeeeeeee! Fishsticks Designs is in an ad with MICHAEL MILLER FABRICS! Lots and lots and lots of sewing going on around here. I’ve been afraid that I might see smoke pouring out of my machines at any moment! I sewed up all of the outfits you see above the end of last week, and since…
A Trio of Jammies
I absolutely LOVE to see your pictures of the clothing that you create for your family and friends with my patterns! (I do have a flickr group, in case you didn’t know, and it would be amazing if you’d add your Fishsticks Designs pictures to it so I can see them! FD Flickr Group.) These…
Happy 18th Birthday, Sean!
I know you probably think we have a birthday around here once a week. Actually, from around the middle of January until the middle of March, we almost do! Today is Sean’s 18th birthday! We had a great time celebrating with our whole family last night. Not very flattering, but this was our attempt at…
It’s Time to Celebrate the Boy!
JUMP FOR JOY! It’s my turn to Celebrate the Boy! Our four boys keep our home overflowing with all things boy all the time! If this is your first visit to my blog, WELCOME! I love creating patterns for little boys because, well, that’s who primarily enjoys the results of my sewing. In honor of…
A Box of Fabric & An Exciting Announcement!
My UPS delivery guy stopped by here about half an hour ago with this box . . . which is full of fabric. Not too unusual around here to receive a box of fabric delivered by the UPS guy. Except that this box of fabric actually came from Michael Miller Fabrics, and I’ll be using…
Happy 21st!
21 years ago today, I became “Mama”. What an incredible journey it’s been since I welcomed that tiny 4 pound, 6 ounce baby girl almost seven weeks before she was due to arrive! We’ve had so much fun and shared so many memories. I’ve gained so much wisdom, yet I still feel like I’m learning…
Toddler Sizes of the Comfy Sleep Set are Done!
The Comfy Sleep Set in sizes 18 months to 5T is all finished. My testers did a great job of working with me to get it just right! Here are some of their little models: And this one totally cracks me up. It seems that while babies don’t seem to notice the crossover much, toddlers…
A Little Fabric Design
I took a bit of a break today from working on my to-do list and played around at Spoonflower with an idea that I had for a fabric design. How fun! Why haven’t I done that before? Now I have to force myself to patiently wait for my order of organic cotton interlock fat quarters…
