Sweet girl in Sweet Circa

We have watched this sweet, sweet girl blossom over the past few years. What a precious face and lovely presence. We simply adore her. We have our Dear Judy of Hickity Pickity and Forty Toes Photography to thank for bringing us these perfect little moments.

Seeing her float in Circa makes our hearts sing… I mean, how adorable is that halter dress and little purse? Perfectly bohemian and sweet all wrapped into one.

Keep posting your Circa projects- we can’t get enough!!

pssst… love the handbag little Stella is holding? Scoop one up right here. These awesome bags, topped off with a bow, complete any look! Designed by Suzanna Marosi of Hold It Right There

Circa has arrived!

Now that most of you have Circa in your hands, our favorite thing to do is watch you work your magic. Diamonds, hexies, fussy cutting, little dresses… watching Circa come to life is a dream! Our dear friend, Melissa P over at 100 Billion Stars, made this wondrous quilt. Soft, sweet, playful and charming.

We love what Melissa says about Circa,

“The collection brings a fresh wave of nostalgia for simpler times and days gone by; but for hard core Sis Boom fans, the collection looks back on some of Jennifer’s first fabric collections…. From initial reactions, Circa promises to be just as timeless and popular….”

You can just IMAGINE our delight when we stumbled upon this beautiful site, Oh! Veronica. They’ve taken Circa to a whole new level with this absolutely darling little vintage party frock. The silhouette is to die for.

Handmade in Australia, your little girl will surely be the best dressed sweetie on the playground. That’s for sure! The photos are so beautiful, borrowed from Oh! Veronica.

Sis Boom Room, Circa style

It’s a Sis Boom room kinda day… and what does that mean? We’re imagining long, flowing Circa curtains up in hurr… Fresh, whimsy, vintage-vibed, and sweet, Austin (JP073 – Green), took the cake in the curtain department. How were we to choose?! (Actually, we couldn’t, so we closed our eyes and pointed to one randomly. It’s the truth!). The scale is a little bit larger in this photo, but we wanted to enhance the detail that Austin has to offer.

Imagine Circa as a curtain in your sun room? Bedroom? Dining room? Baby’s room?! Closet?! Ok, ok, we’ll stop.

Keeping my word

As you know Circa is truly sweeping the nation and because of that I am holding tight to mine.  I have a photoshoot to do!!  But I thought that because all of you mean the world to me that I would at least offer up half yards of all of Circa for all my pals out there. So here’s the deal. The comments have to be here for us to really know what the heck is going on.  So share with your neighbors we love that about all of you.  Tell us your favorite Sis Boom story if you like but you don’t have too or maybe how you know Jennifer (me) or maybe how you got into sewing.  We love your stories!!  Tell us about your business and what it means to you. Short and sweet , we love getting to know you.  If you know me from facebook / twitter  you’ll know I try to reach out to everyone.  As we are growing I’m still the same girl who launched Sis Boom and know the heart of what goes on here is because of all of you.  It’s a special place with lots of special people and it does take a village.

So leave your message here and you will be entered to win a big stack of 1/2 yard of all Circa’s.  I kid you not.Offer ends June 15th at midnight so everyone gets a chance.

 

Let’s Circa-fy Marissa!

Every little girl looks dashing in this beautiful silhouette.. the Marissa. We absolutely adore it here in Queen Street… but, now that Circa‘s rolling in soon, we can’t help but to imagine how we might Circa-fy this shnazzy little number! That’s right.. we double doggy dare you to make a Marissa in CIRCA… Why wouldn’t you?!

Here’s what we’d do… Uhh LOVE THIS!

Which fabrics from Circa would make it into your dress?! Talk to us!

Makes it so special!

So I had my friend Maritza Bermudez who worked on Happy Home with me create this beautiful canopy just like the one in Happy Home. Once the hardware is up you can take this and change it out. I can’t get over this. All these wonderful bouquets cascading down.  I tell you I just will never get enough of Circa and I hope you don’t either.  So for a fraction of what designer fabrics would cost you can have the same upscale look!!! Seriously this could cost up to $1000.00 to $1500.00 in Ct. easily!!!  DIY  this was $160.00 for fabric!!  For those of us obsessed with fabric that is a drop in the bucket. Back to back these fabrics are just so perfect together.  Please note nothing matches, I love just throwing together what I love!!!  When you surround yourself with things you love that is your signature look!!  So I hope you like what you see not at all fussy, just impromptu.  soon the Circa Pillows will be done and we will show you some whole cloth quilts. Enjoy the photos and of course Mr. George in the middle of it all.
