Alley Cat Daydream – MMUp Details and Features

It’s the last Thursday of September so it’s time for some features from the MMUp link-up and a few more details about the Alley Cat Daydream dress.


But first here’s a fun mashUp that was linked up this month from Kimmie So Crazy!

She was a fellow tester of the Alley Cat Romper and she made her girl a couple of super cute rompers that you should hop over to see.  I really love the shape of the high low skirt on this one though!

Bean’s Alley Cat Daydream dress used the lovely Sprinkles (or Jimmies) cotton jersey fabric from Kitschy Coo for the bodice and a fun waffle textured light-weight woven fabric from JoAnn Fabrics for the skirt.  With the texture of the skirt fabric, the dress has a real ice cream cone feel to it, which is fun.

Since the white fabric was a little thin, I used two layers so it wouldn’t be see-through. I sewed them together at the bottom edge before attaching the ruffle, but gathered them separately at the bodice to give even more poof to the waistline.  The effect is lovely.

Especially when she spins!

The Diamondback Cami & Crop AND the coordinating D The Diamondback Cami & Crop AND the coordinating Diamondback Leggings are ready for testing!  Testing will begin on Tuesday the 9th and will end on Saturday the 20th.  These are two separate patterns, but will be tested in the same group simultaneously.  You can sign up for whichever (or both) you'd like, but as long as you complete at least one final version you will get both final patterns 😘
Works great together for dancewear or sport and as separates for casualwear.  The Cami & Crop are also able to made as swimwear 😍, but FYI this pattern doesn't include a swim bottom. (I do have a FREE #classicmaillotswimskirt available in the shop though πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ) 
Depending on the fabrics, the crop can also be used as an undergarment bralette.
The Diamondback Cami & Crop and view A of the Diamondback Leggings require fold-over elastic.  You can use any knit for both patterns with at least 75% stretch, but the leggings need 4-way stretch.  Sizing nb-16years

We had a great time at Great Wolf Lodge last weeke We had a great time at Great Wolf Lodge last weekend!  We avoided crowds, wore masks everywhere, and got take out from town instead of eating buffet (😬😬) We were a little nervous, but the hotel itself was doing a great job managing things in a safe manner and we were more impressed than we expected, even though we spent the majority of the time alone together in our room πŸ˜†πŸ˜† 
It’s amazing what a change of scenery can do for your spirit and the girls LOVED being able to spend the time away from school and work distractions πŸ’•πŸ’•

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.
