Beginner Sewing Patterns and Customer Creations!
Proverbs 31 O my son, O son of my womb, O son of my promises, do not spend your strength on women, on those who ruin kings. And it is not for kings, O Lemuel, to guzzle wine. Rulers should not crave liquor. For if they drink, they may forget their duties and be unable to give justice to those who are oppressed. Liquor is for the dying, and wine for those in deep depression. Let them drink to forget their poverty and remember their troubles no more. Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those who are perishing. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice. Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is worth more than precious rubies. Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life. She will not hinder him but help him all her life. She finds wool and flax and busily spins it. She is like a merchant's ship; she brings her food from afar. She gets up before dawn to prepare breakfast for her household and plan the day's work for her servant girls. She goes out to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard. She is energetic and strong, a hard worker. She watches for bargains; her lights burn late into the night. Her hands are busy spinning thread, her fingers twisting fiber. She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy. She has no fear of winter for her household because all of them have warm [fn] clothes. She quilts her own bedspreads. She dresses like royalty in gowns of finest cloth. Her husband is well known, for he sits in the council meeting with the other civic leaders. She makes belted linen garments and sashes to sell to the merchants. She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs with no fear of the future. When she speaks, her words are wise, and kindness is the rule when she gives instructions. She carefully watches all that goes on in her household and does not have to bear the consequences of laziness. Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her: "There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!" (Oh, shout it out girls!! Dream a little larger!! HA!!) Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the LORD will be greatly praised. Reward her for all she has done. Let her deeds publicly declare her praise."

"Dear Aimee, Thank you so much for the beautiful pattern. I have only been sewing for a few months (ever since I discovered boutique clothing - my daughter just turned one), and am by no means experienced. However, your little details in your pattern/instructions make this dress look like it was made by a professional! I am a big fan of the pdf patterns available on etsy, and you are now my favorite! My daughter will be wearing this dress for our Easter pictures with chicks and a bunny." C
Thanks so much all of you for sending in these cute adorable pictures of your beautiful models and your awesome creations!! Love them!!

Happy Girl sewing pattern coming this weekend!
Almost here! I have finished the back cover. We have an adoption fellowship today at our city park so I will be away from the computer today but hope to continue finishing the final details of getting this pattern released tomorrow (and Grace's 5th birthday party is tomorrow!) The busy life of a work at home Mom!!!!!
To all you busy Mom's I salute you and give you today this scripture that spoke VOLUMES to me yesterday morning. God always comes at just the right time to give us encouragement! I was having one of those nights where I just was so disappointed in how I reacted to my children and thought about all the ways I could have done it differently..... you know..... "could've lowered my voice", "could've said it a different way", "could've smiled instead of been frustrated"..... all those "could haves". And when I woke up yesterday morning the daily devotional I get on my computer said, "Read through Romans 8:28-39. Thank God for loving you, regardless of how well you are doing as a parent." WOW! Did I ever need that word of encouragement! I love my family and children dearly and I believe I do a good job fulfilling that role BUT I always want to be open to be even better! So for all you Mom's reading this who wish they "could've done it differently" (whatever that is), I want to give you encouragement!!!!! He loves you regardless!
Romans 8:28-31 And we know that in all things God works
for the good of those who love him, [fn] who [fn] have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Happy Girl Sewing Pattern coming soon!
Still working hard to get Happy Girl out!! Looks like it is pushed until this weekend because I have decided to add a simple headband to the pattern! You are going to love the changes from the original picture from January! It is such an easy sew and looks absolutely adorable on the girls (if I may say so myself ;)! Above is the long version or below the knee version. I have not hemmed this one yet and I need to add the green fabric covered buttons that will look cute cute! Grace is also wearing the simple headband that will be with this pattern.

Happy Girl Sewing Pattern coming this week!
the look is sweet with a subtle scallop accent that just adds an adorable delicate look!
they were probably telling each other "Mom needs to chill!"
These are the above the knee option with either gathered or pleated dress. Rose is wearing the gathered version and Grace is wearing the pleated version. I am working hard to get this out by Wednesday!
