Monthly Mash Up with Call Ajaire

I am so excited to finally be able to share this with you!

Have you seen Call Ajaire's Monthly Mash Up series?  This is where Ajaire takes two patterns and mashes them together into one great outfit, and she invites you to join along.  She reveals how she altered the pattens to create something new and gives instruction as to how you can create your own mash up.  You can join the link party to show off your creations.  It's such a great series and has produced so many cute, cute things!

I was beyond flattered when Ajaire contacted me about using my Estherlyn's Jumper for her mash up for August.  Really!  MY pattern?!  I have always said that I want my blog and my patterns to be all about inspiring creativity in others and this opportunity goes perfectly hand in hand with that.  Of course I HAD to say yes!

She has chosen the Tobago Tank from Sis Boom patterns to be the other pattern for this month's combination.  I love the neckline on this sweet pattern and I am looking forward to seeing this awesome mash up!  I might even mash along myself!

To celebrate this fun adventure I am offering a discount code for both my Etsy shop and my Big Cartel shop.  The code is MASHUP and can be used for a 25% discount from August 7th-August 14th.  I will also temporarily drop the price for the pattern at Craftsy so you have many options if you would like to purchase it and mash along with Ajaire. :)

Ajaire will also be giving away a free copy of the pattern to one lucky winner, so be sure to head over to her blog and register to win!

I invite you to join up and mash along with Ajaire.  Throughout the month I will also be sharing some of my ideas for how you can make your mash up unique!  I hope that you will stop back by during the month and check them out.

Please feel free to share your mash up creation at my Facebook page, too.  I'd love to see what you all come up with!

Until next time... Happy Sewing (and Happy Mashing)!

The Big Day is Finally Here!

Estherlyn's Jumper is perfect for all seasons. In warmer weather it can be worn as a sleeveless dress. When the weather turns cooler, layer it over a shirt or blouse. This is a cute, simple design with an asymmetrical apron panel in the front. It is a great canvas for expressing your own creativity by adding trims, ruffles, appliqué or decorative stitching.  It covers a wide size range from 3 months to 10 years.  

This pattern is easy enough for beginner sewists. Skills needed consist of button holes, sewing curves and pivoting.

Once again a big thank you goes out to all of my testers, the friends I have made through Pattern Workshop, Lauren Dahl who created Pattern Workshop, my sweet hubby, Jason, and my Creator without whom I would be nothing.  I could not have done this without all of the support that has been shown to me throughout this process.  They have helped to make this dream a reality for me!
