I love Summer Dresses!

Don't you love spring and all the promise it brings?  Days are getting longer, the air is getting warmer, and school is nearing an end for summer?  This year brought 2 new events to my family - my 8 year old nephew recently celebrated his First Communion - Congrats Cian!  His mom and dad are so proud of him!

And, my preschooler will be the usher for the older kids at their graduation.  She is so excited to watch her friends sing all of the songs they've been learning!  Very fitting for Memorial Day, America ('My Country 'tis of Thee') is her favorite.

Here's the pretty dress I made for these celebrations!  I love the tulips and look of watercolor of this line from Pat Bravo!  Claire's all about coloring flowers these days, so it was very fitting!

Cute, cute, cute!!  

With just a few fabric scraps & about an hour, make a set of these super fun coasters!
Living in Florida, means cold drinks sweat all year round.  These fabric coasters do just the trick - they absorb the sweat and look pretty good, too!

Perfect for hostess gifts, summer parties, by the pool, or any day.

Summer Lap Quilt featuring Wiltshire Daisy & Primrose Garden
Summer is right around the corner, and we're looking forward to spending much more time outdoors!  Picnics, time at the beach and the pool, and outdoor concerts.

Take an afternoon or evening to make this easy peasy patchwork quilt to take along!  I've highlighted two of Carina Gardner's great fabric lines - Primrose Garden & the highly popular Whiltshire Daisy.  

Don't you just love it?

I'll be creating a tutorial shortly, so be sure to check back soon!
