Look at this girl!!! Jenny with a J our very own Jenny on the block!! I wish I had permission to show you this dress in progress..definately R rated!!! Whether she’s leaning on the bath tub or interrupting the hubby while he’s watching ESPN we adore miss Jenny for her flavorful photography!!..She has singlehandedly sold the most copies of Girls World by her incredible enthusiasm and teaching girls in her neighborhood about sewing empowerment!!! Read her blog, we are not imagining this she is out there hustling!! She also can’t get enough West Indies so that makes our world turn too!! Jenny is the iconic Sis Boom Girl that we like to see, starting her own business, adapting our patterns to create her own visions!! We want you to be your greatest success!!! Create, design, believe in possibilities!! Carve out a place for you in this world..Do not wait. Begin and watch it all unfold. We support you!! So get your Meghan Peasant and your West Indies fabric. Throw a ruffle on and get out your sexiest pair of boots. We love you Jen-Jen. Have fun at Market. If you see her at market post the photo to our Sis Boom Sightings on our flickr group and Win 2 fatquarters!!!

What?! (screamed with excitement and Joy)… This is just so powerful and so beautiful. What a stunning little girl and what a beautiful West Indies Outfit! We’re not sure what tops it off– the Hunter boots or the beautiful crown!
You’re probably not surprised that this is Miss Hickity Pickity! She never fails to amaze us! (don’t you just want to eat that chunky rick-rack?! So delish!)
Beautiful Photography by Forty Toes!

Whose lucky baby will be wrapped in this goodness? The combination of blues tug at our heartstrings, and the the splashes of cocoa add a lusciousness that is the most yummy eye candy we could imagine! Eh-hem.. did you all see the back? This baby is going to be wrapped in straight up luxurious Sis Boom. Sew Fun by Monique, you are just the cat’s meow!
32×32 started out with Velentina in cocoa, Matilda in blue, Chandler in cocoa and Marie in blue from West Indies. Other coordinates from Honey Child, Queen Street and Flower Power.

Thank you for all of you wonderful people out there who love what we do here at Sis Boom. It’s a love of Happy color that brings us all together and I couldn’t be more excited about that.. Let me tell you your responses on the colors made me so giddy because that’s what it’s all about.

I want to thank Madame Samm from Stash Manicure for introducing us to her amazing group of followers we loved meeting you and are so excited to have you following our blog we promise not to disappoint.

This is a new style for us but very similar to the Mary Fancy Sash Dress in Girls World done up in the new West Indies. One of our favorite models Abby loves all of our dresses and we couldn’t be happier..She is the sweetest loveliest girl you’ll ever want to meet.
You all know this fabric is going to be a winner so stock up no holding back on this wonderful West Indies design. Chandler JP52 in Brandy see other colors and designs here.
love you miss Abby and your brother Tyler and of course little Brady!

You guessed it!! West Indies. The West Indies Collection : Columbus named them thinking he’d found a shortcut to India. But he found something equally exotic: The West Indies. Sitting above the equator, home to loose fitting garments, outspoken colors found in schooner sails, the flags of many nations, the hat-wearing church ladies, the turbans, dashikis, moo moos, all of it! The tutti frutti colors of homes raking up the hillsides that would have had to have been inspired by the guavas, mangoes and plantains hanging outside.. The soul of the West Indies is inside me. The signature of all of my textiles is about an untouchable time, innocent but cosmopolitan , highlighted by the sun the fabrics dazzled everywhere on the island. I am grateful for the opportunity to keep bringing them to you.

Here she is, she teaches Girls World Classes She hoards Sis Boom Fabric and keeps it in a locked box (not really) the kind of girl you totally get!! She dresses She and her daughter from head to toe in Sis Boom. All the while she is happy happy happy.
The Sewing machine sings when the kids are at camp and now runs a sewing camp herself. We love our Jenny and so will you. Melissa P from 100billionstars who also makes darling items and is infamous for her Girls World Pin Cushion works closely with FreeSpirit and recieves a small advance of fabric and she inturn cut up her parcel and sent to Jenny. It doesn’t get any better. Make sure to visit her ETSY . The spirit of sharing which defines us at Sis Boom is alive and well and lives on in the wonderful customers of Sis Boom. Paying it forward is commonplace .
One thing I will also add is that the special people who keep coming back for more Sis Boom are such a grateful bunch. We all know gratitude is the bottom line because with out that we’d be miserable lot. Thanks for the gratitude of your vital spirits which help us thrive. Oh and have fun with the suitcases be patient, try putting glue on the suitcase and pressing firmly down. The choice to go back over with mod podge is yours! just be gentle with yourself! oh how many things I attempted and never finished cause I had no patience..
So take a look at West Indies up close and personal..
