Blooming Tulips

I made this sweet little dress yesterday for someone.  The Blooming Tulips fabric is from Laura Gunn's Magnolia Lane collection and the Tile Mosaic in Citron is from her Poppy collection. I love all of Laura Gunn's fabrics.  She does an amazing job at creating a textured look on all of her prints. When I found the tulip fabric, I was so in love that I bought enough for little miss Emma a dress too.  After seeing it in person, I'm not sure if I want to make a dress out of it or hang it on my wall.  Isn't it just divine?!  Seriously, I'm off to look for a tutorial on how to mount and display fabric!

One more thing to mention... I follow A LOT of sewing and crafting blogs.  Most of them do frequent giveaways and I usually enter them and then forget about them because I never win.  Well I finally WON!!!  The Sewing Dork is doing a series of pattern tests this month.  She has been giving away the patterns or the things she makes from them.  This time she used a portabellopixie pattern (one of my favs) to make a sweet little knot dress in a 12-18 month!  Perfect for my little boo!  Right now she's giving away a Do-Re-Mi Reversible pinafore pattern! If your crafty or just like looking at handmade stuff - Go check her out.  She has a ton of tutorials for all different things.
