Alley Cat Daydream – MMUp (9) Sewing the MashUp

It’s a busy day on the blog, but don’t think I’ve forgotten about the fabulous Alley Cat Daydream mash-a-long!  Today we’re sewing the MMUp and this one couldn’t be more simple.


Just as there were no alterations to make to the individual pattern pieces, this month there isn’t anything different to do with the sewing.  Simply follow the instructions for making the bodice of the Alley Cat Romper (*affiliate link), and then jump over to how to sew the skirt portion of the Daydream Ruffle Dress.  Instead of gathering the skirt to fit the Daydream bodice, gather it to fit your Alley Cat bodice and voila!  Instant MashUp!

Next week I’ll be showcasing Bean’s Alley Cat Daydream as well as a few of the MashUps in the link up.  Have you added yours yet??  As a reminder the Alley Cat Daydream mash-a-long schedule is:

Thursday 9/4: Introduce the patterns and open the giveaway (giveaway ends on 9/17 at midnight EST)
Thursday 9/11: Reveal the MashUp, alter the patterns, and open the link up (open until 9/24 at midnight EST)
Thursday 9/18: Begin sewing the MashUp with the Giveaway winner announced on Facebook and Instagram
Thursday 9/25: Share the details of the MashUp and features from the link up

Be sure to follow the Monthly MashUp Pinterest board if you’d like some more inspiration for garments to mash.

    She's growing so quickly! I mean this cardi is a little big on her now, but I guarantee it'll be perfect this winter. But speaking of how quickly they grow….. your two on the cover have grown SO MUCH since then ๐Ÿ™‚

    Oh girl I'm so not prepared. It usually doesn't hit here in MD until late October and last year it was even into November before it turned cold. This year of course all of September has had a chill. I love it, but I wasn't ready for preschool leggings and cardis at all. I seriously whipped up a pair of leggings before school the other day cause she wanted to wear a dress that her legs would have frozen in…. i'm ridiculous haha.

The name comes from the back overlap detail where if you use a stretch mesh you can see a diamond shape stand out through the layers. โ™ฆ๏ธ 
Itโ€™s just as unique sewn up in a solid jersey, but I love seeing the fold over elastic outline through the mesh. ๐Ÿ’• 
Preorders of @onethimble issue 28 are released on the 11th and can be purchased now in their shop!  Remember the prices are in Australian dollars, so the value is even better than you may think ๐Ÿ˜‰

It was so fun pulling things from my scrap bin ear It was so fun pulling things from my scrap bin earlier this week for the #fabriceggstravaganza hosted by @postalthreads. Lots of memories and fun textures like @shannonfabrics Cuddleยฉ minky and Embrace double gauze.

I've always loved making. At an early age I started cross stitching and sewing and I taught myself to knit and crochet during college. When our seven year old daughter Bean was born I was filled with all sorts of inspiration, so now I find ways to manage my crafty time and treasure those moments. Though sewing is what I'm most passionate about these days, there's something about the portability of yarn crafts and embroidery that keeps drawing me back in.
