The Fall Patterns are here!

 The day has arrived! The new fall patterns are here! Jackets! You all likely know by now that I LOVE jackets. If there was one thing I would design all day it would be outerwear. It may be because I grew up in Minnesota, and so we wore jackets more than anything else, but seriously I love Jackets. This first release, is The Desmond Jacket. Designed for a boy this would totally work for a girl as well (the pattern tells you how to switch the way the jacket buttons for a girl)Jude actually helped me design this jacket.

 Which is why there is a "cape" in the back... in the form of a button yoke naturally. It's my favorite detail and I love that he helped design it. He totally feels like a super hero wearing it.

Oversized lapel was something I have always loved, but the button cuffs, were his idea since super heros usually have cuffs :)

Hand warmer pockets low enough that kids can actually use them. (what is the deal with the high chest level hand warmer pockets?) The Jacket he is wearing was made from a heavy poly wool blend, and lined with flannel (in a dino print just for Jude) So it will be nice and toasty for our mild but chilly winters. Especially with the sweet plaid scarf around his neck which he refused to model in the 90+ degree day... silly boy :)

The next one is the Michelle Jacket. The sweet and full girls jacket. With a hood, and fully lined and roomy enough to layer well over winter wear. 

Abbey choose red, because the wool I wanted to use didn't come in pink or purple...(lucky me :) and it makes me think of little red riding hood every time I see it. 

 The jacket is nice and long (although it can be shortened to any length you like) I love the formal look of the long full swinging jacket. (with front pockets)

And the piping across the chest is the perfect little pop of color. Pleats add that lovely little feminine detail and add to the fullness of the jacket.

(yes all the way up to a 10/12 which is the same as a woman's XXS)

 Lastly with a baby girl on the way, naturally I have been doing some designing for baby! The Baby Basics pattern is 1 pattern with 6 different looks and that means all you need for a complete baby wardrobe. Leggings, bloomers, jumpers, dresses and tops.

 And since I don't have a baby to model for me yet, I had some lovely testers take pictures for me instead. And how cute? (long sleeve dress)

And this sweet jumper. With curved bodice so you have some style elements to the sweet baby wear.
