Our very first pattern!!!!! It's too exciting for words and the story behind it is incredibly serendipitous. Most of you know I taught a class a few months back for collage and journaling.
Well a wonderful young woman from Maryland came with her husband Delmar and beautiful boy Louie! Delmar and Louie went to the childrens museum and parked Carla here with me! After three hours of giggles and letting go, before she left to go back to Maryland, I found out she did patterns. Carla Hegeman Crim also known as the scientific seamstress not only does patterns but she has a dedicated following that love her to bits!!! Carla is such a warm and loving person that I just know you are going to love her. So the next thing I know we are partnering and the rest is history. So Carla molecular biologist turned patternmaker has introduced me to the most wonderful people who love beautiful fabric!!! So lets go there!
You can make this a wonderful site developed by Kimberly Christopherson that is all about regular folks doing incredible crafts. Kim makes crafts and sewing projects accessible and fun! She is all about getting folks to try !! She also just launched You can make this blog Incredible right??? She has certainly found a special audience with crafters and sewers alike. While you are there make sure to load up on Carlas other wonderful ebook patterns. She has the applique thing down too!! So lots of exciting things from Sis Boom. Make sure you've entered our raffle on the previous post and get on over and download your ebook pattern of our Sophie Tunic over at YOUCANMAKETHIS.com.

Looks beautiful!! Now, get to working on the matching Mommy sizes!! 😉
I LOVE it! It is such a wonderful pattern. I can’t wait to make more! Your fabrics inspire me, thanks so much for letting me be a part of it all.
Congratulations, beautiful tunic
I just saw it on YCMT and it looks incredible!! so beautiful! congratulations to both you and Carla and many blessings to you both! I’ll have to go post about it on my blog if that is ok?!
love the pattern looks lovely. I will have to go check those sites out.
Aw, what a fabulous tunic! And such sweet pictures of the models. This is so exciting – congratulations to you!
Very cool. A perfect breezy summer top.
Hope I get to meet you at Market…
Where’s the Mom size??? I love it!
Adorable, simple and very comfy-looking. Everything you want in a tunic. 🙂
Dear quiltfriend,
I got your mailadres from http://www.quiltinggalery.com, and I have a question to you.
My sister is, after an exiting period, finaly pregnant of her first baby.
Now I would like to make a bright-colored quilt for her. To welcome the baby to this world
with a quilt from patches from all over the world. I try to collect scraps of 12×12 cm (5×5 inch).
Do you have a piece of fabric that may be suitable, perhaps you would sent it to me.
I would really like to use it!
Many thanks and warm greetings,

Congratulations!!!! The tunic is beautiful and perfect with your fabrics. I look forward to adding this one to my collection for my daughter.

Hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day!

Love it, love it, love it!
Oh wow I love those tunics, Will be downloading for sure. by the time the warmer weather arrives here in Australia again I should have few made up!!
Alicia :0)
Tunics are all the rage…I love them so much.
Congratulations with the pattern….
Janet
Love the tunic and as always your great fabrics! Have fun at Market!
Oh it doesn’t get any prettier than this, Jennifer!! But i want one in my size! How about a pattern for the ladies?!
next month we will have the adult size so stay tuned…
I am very very pleased to see some children’s clothing designed for the older child – with two girls aged 9 and 11 – I never ever see designers create clothing with these ages in mind – I think a serious gap in the market! So pleased you have this tunic with fabulous fabric and colour that can be sewn for my girls too!
