Cutest Little Pinafore Pattern 🧵 Just in Time for Spring!

Happy Spring everyone!

There's something I've always loved about sewing for little ones—choosing the perfect fabric, adding thoughtful details, and creating pieces that are meant to be worn, loved, and lived in.

I'm so happy to share that my Pint Size Pinafore pattern is now available as a PDF download so you can start sewing right away. This is an easy pattern  and fun- little ones love the pockets! 

This design is especially close to my heart. I made so many versions when my daughter was growing up—each one a little different, comfortable and perfect for play. It's a timeless style I find myself returning to again and again.

If you'd like a little guidance along the way, my friend and sewing teacher, Tami Jones of Hometown Quilt Company has created three step-by-step video tutorials using the Pint Size Pinafore pattern to show her special creations for her own Little Ladies!

She brings the pattern to life with her beautiful new fabric line with Andover (coming soon!), and I think you'll love seeing her creative approach.

One of my favorite ways to make a simple garment or gift feel extra special is by adding delicate embellishments especially during this bridal shower season!

From my book Create Flowers & Trims with Ribbon & Fabric (Vintage Notions Sewing Series), ribbon flowers are a lovely way to embellish a project—and perfect for spring. Whether you add a small floral accent or create something more decorative- try a a bouquet,  it's a beautiful way to personalize project.

If you love the story behind handmade embellishments, watch this special video of my mom and me sharing our favorite ribbon flower techniques from the book.

It's a fun, step-by-step guide and a glimpse into where so much of my inspiration began.

I am looking forward to seeing Tami and so many other industry friends at H + H! 

It's only a few days away! If you are attending, please stop by booth 1700 to say hello.

XO,

Amy
