April Fabric Lines

Sorry everyone for being MIA these last few weeks. It has been a completely crazy semester for me. I am counting down the weeks until summer break (4 left!). But anyways I thought I would update you all on the 3 amazing fabric lines coming in this month with a little surprise for you at the end :)

First we have Chevrons by Riley Blake Designs (pink is currently available)

The second line coming in is from Blend Fabrics called Crabtastic. Blend never seems to disappoint in their cuteness of fabrics. First Babysaurus now Crabtastic... Love!

The last fabric line coming in this month is the first of hopefully many future lines that Fabric Nerds will offer from Art Gallery Fabrics called Rhapsodia. I am loving the retro meets bohemian bold colors. Definitely see a skirt in my near future from these.

And now for the surprise....

I don't know about all of you but spring gets me in the mood to get creative with my sewing machine. I thought if you all are like me with a million and one projects running around in your head, I could be of some help. To help you get started on these projects I would like to offer you all FREE US Shipping for purchases of $30.00 or more. Use coupon code FREESHIP. Coupon expires 4/30/12 at midnight and is not valid on international or canadian postage.

Just got an email that some awesome fabric is on its way to Fabric Nerds. The fabric is ....

Stars & Stripes by My Mind's Eye for Riley Blake Designs

Dainty Blossoms

I fell in love with Riley Blakes, Dainty Blossoms line the second I opened up the box. I knew that I wanted to make something for my little girl but was undecided what to do. I also knew it had to be something easy and quick because when it comes to sewing projects for me I am an instant gratification kind of girl. Funny enough Walmart gave me the inspiration I needed... A cheap Hanes pink t-shirt & here is the outcome (drum roll please):

I am not one to pat myself on the back but how cute is this dress?!? It such a cute little spring dress for any little girl and took me about an hour and very little fabric. The look on her face when I showed her the dress would have been worth 10+ hours of work to me :)  

Back view

When it comes to making something I fly by the seat of my pants and wing it, so unfortunately I don't have any instructions. If anyone is interested in them let me know and I will attempt to make a tutorial.

What are some of your favorite creations that you have made?
