big plans




My mom called me up after school to let me know that McCall's Patterns were on sale for $1.99 at JoAnne's this weekend. You know I couldn't pass up a great deal, so she drove over to Boise and we went to JoAnne's. While I was there I found some really cute, really cheap patterns AND all of these adorable fabrics. Here are my plans for the fabric as of right now.

I am planning on making a skirt with this material. I did not buy a pattern for the skirt...I will probably just "trace" one of my other skirts to get the desired shape and pattern. This fabric was a steal and I couldn't pass it up!


This super cute fabric is totally creamy white on the top of it, so it will make a really cute dress with the pattern at the bottom. I didn't find a dress pattern that I loved to go with it, so I bought it and will just have to wait until I find the perfect pattern.



Doesn't this just look like the perfect fabric for a cute little mod dress for
the summer? I thought so. I think that it may be perfect for the rehearsal dinner at Johnpaul's cousin Chris' wedding.


And now the patterns:
So, this is the pattern that I am thinking for the black and white mod fabric.




I think these are some cute, springtime school pants. I bought some nice, lightweight, green pants material to make these out of, but it didn't photograph well, so you will have to try and imagine it.





And finally, this super cute bag. I am going to make this bag out of a
really cute old 1960's table cloth that Johnpaul's grandma gave me. I have been trying to decide what to make out of it forever and I think I finally decided. It is such cute fabric. It is dark brown with white daisies all over it. adorable.


I guess I have some work to do now. xoxo. Stephanie
