Along the Way

Janet over at Along the Way hosted a couple of bracelet contests about a month ago.  The first contest was for a kids size bracelet and the other one was for an adult size bracelet.  My luck must have turned because I won not only one of the kids bracelets but one of the adult ones too!!! 

Then to top it off when they came in the mail I was pleasantly surprised to find that she had included matching earrings with the adult bracelet!!! 

Thank you Janet for hosting the contest.  The bracelets and earrings are beautiful!!!

LBB & Dharma Trading Design Challenge

I’m a huge fan of Lil Blue Boo and they have teamed up with Dharma Trading  Co. for a Design Challenge Contest.    I plan on entering into the contest and have already hit the drawing boards!!!

Here’s the challenge:

“Create a unique outfit for a girl or boy using a Lil Blue Boo pattern. Alterations to the patterns ARE allowed as well as additional coordinating clothing items and accessories! I want you to have as much creative room as you think you need!
Use at LEAST one of the following techniques in your creation: fabric dyeing, fabric painting, stenciling, fabric transfers, screen printing or other embellishments (including applique).”

**For more detailed information and rules click the button at the bottom of post**

 

One of my ideas I have brewing is going to be based after this cute hoodie pattern.

 

I am way excited as I love Lil Blue Boo style and have already implemented a couple of her ideas into a some of the dresses I’ve made for my daughter.  This will be a fun new adventure.  Come join me in the design fun!!!
