ruffles and rompers

Thank you for the sweet words about my new header.  I was hoping you would like it as much as I do.  Of course, my husband ever the realist pointed out..."Well, what did you expect them to say?" Hah!

The paints are put away for now and the sewing machines (yes, that is plural, I use three) are front and center in my craft studio. 

I have been busy as a bee and happy as a lark putting together a few sweet little girl outfits.

This little romper and ruffled bloomer set was made for the quilt shop I sometimes sew for.  The owner pays me in fabric so whenever I am low on funds and in need of some pretty inspiration I head on over and see what she needs sewn up.

It's a win, win situation for sure.



I finished a sweet pinafore for my granddaughter but I want her to model a photo shoot before I share it with you.  Of course, I couldn't resist a quick instagram photo sneak peak.  (You can see my latest IG's on my side bar or at Patty_Marker.) 

That's about all for this Monday morning.  My house has been sadly neglected so I am off to do a bit of cleaning before I head back into my sanctuary.

Have a wonderful Memorial Day sweet friends.  Find a veteran or the wife of a veteran and give them a hug.  Sacrifice happens on both sides, so that we can enjoy the lives we've been blessed with!

xo, Patty
