This post is sponsored by Fabric.com! Summer is coming and that means it's ROMPER season! I like long pants on rompers so I don't have to worry about sunburns on cute baby legs! So I made this cute little lace romper for a baby girl with 2 sleeve options in either pants or shorts! Fabric.com has so many lace options, I needed to use some of them! Lace has always been one of my ultimate favorite fabrics.

She grabs them with her thumb and forefinger and then spreads the rest of her fingers out like a ...Continue Reading
ROSIE TOP BFF SHOOT
We took this cute little friend shoot a few weeks ago. I loved this Dear Stella dot fabric, it matches my daughter's wallpaper even! So sewing up 2 of these cuties was super fun!

I know I designed it that way, but I love how you get a little peek of baby belly sometimes! ;) It was a bit cold and my daughter was a bit jealous to have to share the ...Continue Reading
