Alphabet Soup

Introducing a new pattern: Alphabet Soup on display at Esmes. This quilt and pattern was actually the last on my ‘to do list’ but snuck ahead of the pile because it is so quick and easy to whip up. Just perfect for a baby shower.

This quilt is educational as well as functional! The vintage alphabet panel will help little one’s learn their ABC’s while keeping them warm and snug. If the alphabet isn’t your style why not substitute the ABC panel for a stylish print of your choice to give it a personal touch. With minimal sewing this quilt is so easy to create, you could make several in a short period of time.

If you want to purchase this pattern Esmes have them in stock NOW and kits are ready to go so you can make one EXACTLY the same :). Lillian also has kits of Baby 123 for anyone interested in that. Kits are fantastic as they take the worry out of choosing fabrics and you can see what your quilt will look like finished before you even start the project.

If you would like to purchase a copy of Alphabet Soup for yourself and your favourite store doesn’t have them in stock ask them to order one in for you.

If you are a store owner and would like to stock this or any other Clares Place pattern's feel free to contact me to place an order.

Fabrics: Moda - American Jane - Punctuation

Stay tuned for another new pattern coming very soon!

Sneak Peek x 2

Most days I get so busy with all I have on that I forget to blog about all I am up to (or blogging is at the end of my to do list that is NEVER finished! :S ) I am flat out pattern writing and sewing and looking after our princess. At the moment I have so many projects on the go that I am starting to loose track of which one I am currently working on and what stage each is at. New projects are always being started and they tend to take priority and push others back but I do have a few patterns almost ready to be released.

Here is a few sneak peaks to show what I am working on and that I am still here.

The playgroup has just started back again which for our princess is really exciting. She LOVES the rollercoaster, cars, bikes and toy kitchen (the rollercoaster is the favourite by far!). This playgroup was especially exciting as there were two little visitors - cute little lambs. They were a hit with the children and while many of them are too young to want to hold them or chase them around (probably a good thing) most children were happy patting them.

This was taken by someone our princess didn't know so she was quite shy (and very tired too as she has had a nasty cough keeping her awake though the night)

So for now I best get back to completing ONE of my projects so I can show a finished one soon! :) Until then happy sewing!!!
