I'm really sorry for all the pictures but I couldn't get the details w/just one pic each. 6 outfits I've done this past month. All 6 are Jayme dress tops and a burda pattern for the capris. Both patterns have been altered in different ways for all 6.

First Munki tulips and Joanns stretch poplin, we've gotten so many compliments on this outfit, just random people walking up to me and asking where I got it, I even had one lady who sews childrens clothing for a local boutique ask me if I wanted to sew for her, lol, the ultimate compliment, anyway enough bragging;)

Next, Munki callipso(sp?) wide legged capri pants and Joanns white cotton/lycra rib knit.

Not Munki but the same style outfit capri pants and egyptian cotton from Joanns, oh and the applique is not the best so that's why there's no closeup:D oh and I have a matching skirt I made for myself last year.

Next, Munki gnomes (which I didn't even like until I saw all the adorable outfits everyone was making w/it). Wide legged capris, Joanns c/l rib knit and again, no close up applique is not the best.

Another (sorry couldn't help it;)

Last, my favorite, Munki fireflies and JA's egyptian cotton, this one I made the top a little longer than I planned so I did a casing and put elastic at the leg opening on the pants because it looked a little weird w/the wide legged pants and the longer, almost a dress top. All the binding has a decorative stitch and I used the same stitch to topstich where the ruffle met the top. The hem on the ruffle has a scalloped dec stitch. I love how this turned out :heart:

And since I've already overloaded this post, can I share one more picture, this is Emma and our German Shepherd, Bastian, we got when she was 2 months old, I can never get both of them to sit still at the same time so I have very few pictures of both of them, they're the best of friends and this picture turned out so cute.

Sarah

Cute & summery. I'm partial to the tulips :)

All of them are super cute, and so is you little "model". I love the different variations that you did. What a great summer wardrobe :)

Mindi

Beautiful!! I love all the outfits!

Wow, everything is beautiful!!!

Omg, I'm really speechless. Those outfits are just absolutely wonderful. Beyond cute, I just can't think of the right adjective! Anyway, my way of saying that I really love all of them :)

That pic of Bastian and Emma is really cute :heart:

Wow, what gorgeous work! Your dd has such a pretty wardrobe.

Becka, everything looks wonderful. I was looking and scrolling, looking and scrolling, hoping there would be a modeling shot ~ Emma's such a doll! :D

ooooh how adorable! YUM on the cotton llycra from joanns - wish I had some of that!

Love all the pictures, thanks for sharing!!!

Wow! Those are really cute. There's an expensive boutiquey children's shop nearby that I've seen "real" munki outfits at and yours are just as cute or cuter! Your dd is darling and I love the pic with her and her doggie, too :heart:

Wow!! They all look great--so inspirational! :heart: That firefly outfit is tdf.
Did you use a pattern for your wide legged capris? They're great! I'm still waffling on whether I can cut my munki pool ... maybe if I had the perfect capri pattern ... lol!

Those are AMAZING!! What size does Emma wear? I have some stretch twill from JoAnns that looks very similar and I do have some Munki Tulips....those are amazing!

Those all look beautiful! I really love all the variations you made--keeps it really interesting, and your darling baby girl...awwwwww:heart:!

Those are some amazing outfits! I'm in love with both them and your darling daughter!!!

I love all of these, what great clothes!!!

What a great summer wardrobe! Super job :)

Okay I run to the hfs and you posted the capri sets! I love the firlies I can't wait to see it irl! I really :heart: the knomes though. It is so cute in person. And how cute is Bastian, looks likes he posing!

WONDERFUL! I can't even how how great those all are! :bow: You should be very proud to dress your sweetie in those beautiful outfits. :heart:

everything looks amazing! good job. and your dd is just too cute in the pic with the dog.

OH I love these!! Awesome...and yay what a great compliment!! Way to sew mama!! :)

I'm completely awed!! Everything is absolutely stunning! Your style and sewing is simply gorgeous!! Wow. Your dd is a cutie too. :heart:

~Cheryl

Thank you all for all the compliments:heart:

Wow!! They all look great--so inspirational! :heart: That firefly outfit is tdf.

It's Burda 9829, long pants and a bunch of other stuff. The pants pattern is a straight leg pattern, what I did was took my clear ruler, measured out an inch at the bottom of the leg, tapered it back to about 1/2 in when I got to the top. I did this for both the front and the back pieces so I ended up w/each leg being 2 inches wider at the bottom. I'm also using a 3T pattern and Emmas a 4T, which is why I had the additional 1/2 at the waist, plus I was going for the boxy baggy look:) HTH

Those are AMAZING!! What size does Emma wear? I have some stretch twill from JoAnns that looks very similar and I do have some Munki Tulips....those are amazing!

Thank you, she's in a 4T:)

OMG so inspiring! I love just everything, everything! The fireflies is so cute! I have a lot of those same fabrics set out to make Sopihie a bunch of capris ~ I swear! LOL I wasn't planning on doing shirts, but I just might now. ;)

PS What is Joann's Egyptian cotton and where is it located in the store? I'm almost sure my own doesn't have it but I'm headed to another store tonight, maybe they do. :)

Becka ~

The outfits are way cute! I can't pick a favorite. :heart: Riplee said Emma was puddy (aka pretty). :lol: I love the chillin' pic of Emma and the dog.

Thank you, she's in a 4T:)
I still cannot believe how much she and Alex look alike....even the build is similar. Alex is about 3 months older I believe is in at 4T to 5T depending on what it is. I sent my mother a link to one of your posts and she called me to ask who the little girl who looked just like Alex was. She said at first she thought it was Alex, but its rather cold here right now and not at all summer weather so then she wasn't sure and they are a bit different....

I really would love to see them side by side.

Wow! Those are ADORABLE!!! Great job!

Oh wow...I always love looking at your SNS...they are soooooooo beautiful!!! Really...I love everything...you gave me some great ideas!! That style of shirt would fit my Emma really well :0) I like the embroidered straps on the fireflies set and all the appliques :drop:

They are adorable outfits. :) My favorite is the firefly one, that one is just SO sweet.

And I love that pic of your dd and your dog. What a sweet twosome they are! Looks like one to be framed. :)

Meagan~It's w/the solids usually on the top row, our new one doesn't have very many colors or they might just be sold out of alot of them but the older Etc. store here has a bunch, 10 or 15 colors. I think it's $6.99 or 7.99 a yard, it's kinda crisp looking and is really smooth at the same time, it also hangs really great (does that make any sense, lol???)

I can see why the boutique owner asked you to sew for her, your outfits look so professional! They all look great! I used to think some of that Munki was ugly until now. :p You have made me see the light!! :D

Meagan~It's w/the solids usually on the top row,

Thanks, I'll check tonight. Do you mean that they're near the muslins though, when you say "top row"?

Oh and I swear to you, I have the fireflies, pool, and calypso set out to makes Sophie clothes! I deemed today and the next four days "sew for us" because I have 8 million diapers to do from my stocking and I cannot even *think* about it until I have sheers on my bedroom windows and a shower curtain in the bathroom. And then I went and cut the first of the bedroom sheers too short. blah. :tear:

Sorry for hijacking your thread.

Me too, I'd love to see them side by side, but oh the trouble they could cause together :lol: I think that's part of the amazement, not only do they look alike but they have the same build. Emma's bigger than every kid her age and even older kids, she's kinda chubby but has slimmed down a bit this past year, and she's pretty tall for her age.

LOL, I remember you talking about using the calypso to make a shower curtain and always thought how cool that would look, especially w/the people and dolphins going up and down.

Um, I'm not sure where the muslins are, in my JA's all the solids are on one wall, but I don't think the muslins are there, I could be wrong. They have the $1.99 solids on the bottom row and on up till you get to the egyptian cottons at the top.

Okay, I'll look around and hopefully find them. :)

Actully, I'm doing my bathroom in the POOL poplin. :) The shower curtain is hemmed but I'm running out tonight to Hobby Lobby to see if I can find some fun wide chenille rick rack. :D S&S tomorrow hopefully...

Getting off your thread now, I swear.

WOWW!!! :drop: All of them are adorable!! :thumbsup:

Wow!! Very very beautiful! I love them all!! :heart: Are your tulips blue? Or is that just the lighting??

Beautiful work Becka! :heart:
Bastian looks like a big love. :)

Those are wicked cute! I love the tulips set especially!!!

So cute! Love that last picture!

beautiful - almost makes me want to get sewing on summer stuff :)

E

:bow: Awesome mama! Your design, your use of fabric, and your photos. I actually want to print this sns out it's so beautiful and inspiring. I even called dh over to look, lol. Congrats on the compliments too.

Ohhhhhh beautiful!! Love it all! I especially love the decorative stitching that matches the firefly!! Very cool!

Oh wow, those are so wonderful!!!!!!!

Oh wow! I really love that last set. So cute!

:drop:
Wow it's all just fantastic...
YOu should be one proud sewing mama :bow:

Just beautiful! So delicate and summery! :heart: Your dd is a cutie pie and your dog is very pretty too.

Did your links break? I went to show my mother this thread this evening and all I got was the red x's. Afterall, she is amazed by Alex's little twin in Florida. I thought maybe it was her computer, but now the pictures are missing from mine too :(

waahh! I can't see. They sound awesome! I'll check later.

I can't see them......


Monica

Well crud, they work for me. I switched my pics to winkflash, so I guess I'll have to switch back to shutterfly.

Ok, fixed, I think;)

Cheryl~It's just the lighting, the tulips are orange:)

Beautiful!!! :bow: :bow: :bow:

Great job Mama! I especially LOVE the gnomes and fireflies outfits!

Beautiful ! Beautiful ! Beautiful !

I love them...especially the first one.....


Monica

That is all amazingly adorable! And the pic of your dd and the dog is one of the best I have seen! All of it looks perfect! You are an inspiration!

Love Val

LOVE Those outfits!!!!

I love the white tank tops! I had a total DUH moment when I realized you did those from the Jayme bodice pattern. I could do that! lol Everything looks wonderful. She'll be stylin this summer.

wow!!! my girls would LOVE a wardrobe like that!!! great work. i think the tulips is my favorite, but i love them all!!! i'm so jealous of all the talented mamas here!!!
