Calla Lily Skirts

With Mother’s Day coming this weekend, I thought it’d be fun to join the Mommy & Me tour for EYMM!  This post contains affiliate links, but all opinions are mine.


And that was the best pic we got together, hehe.  It’s been pouring rain all week and after a mix-up with our posting date, I was in a rush to get decent pics of these lovely skirts.  I decided we’d go barefoot in the rain and make do, hopefully letting the skirts shine through.  I also couldn’t find my tripod so Bean took the pictures of me and we weren’t able to get the good Mommy and Me pics I had planned.  The skirts are still great though, so bear with me…

The shape of both the women’s and girl’s Calla Lily Skirts *(affiliate link) are perfect for summer.  The high/low hemline gives it style, but there’s plenty of room in back to bend over or twirl without the skirt slipping up.

Speaking of bending over, the girl’s version has a skort option which is perfect!  Bean was so excited that her shorties matched her skirt.

The crossover in the front is pretty, but what I really love is how the back billows out when you walk.  I can’t wait to see Bean in this skirt running around the back yard this summer.

The women’s Calla Lily *(affiliate link) has the same shape and is just as nice.  These sew together incredibly quickly so you can have a new skirt made up in no time.

Though the rest of my body was blurry or chopped off, Bean did a pretty good job of getting the skirt in the pics, hehe.  Of course she was directing me to stand in very specific ways…. hence the toe pointing.  You can buy both of the patterns together as a bundle to here *(affiliate link).

And this is what happens when she asks to take a “nice picture together.”  I should have known there would be silly faces!

Once again this baby surprised us. Yesterday morni Once again this baby surprised us. Yesterday morning she just started counting to ten on her own ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† She was star struck watching herself on the camera so she didnโ€™t go past five here, but in person she rolls right past ten and tries for 11 and 12 ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
You guys, this girl is having a real hair moment. You guys, this girl is having a real hair moment. After waiting literal years for her hair to grow in, itโ€™s now turned into an 80โ€™s rocker look with how spikey it all is on top and the extra length in back๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† 
But we LOVE this Journal Jumpsuit from @jennuinedesign and she LOVES wearing it to jump on the couch. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Sheโ€™s a real talker these days so I had to use the Story Teller cut file, also from the Lounge Library collection.  Check out @projectrunandplay for the details on the sale on this pattern this week only!
Fabric is a lush French terry from @knitfabricdotcom and the contrast is a solid from @wolfandrabbitfabrics

Have you seen the mini season of @projectrunandpla Have you seen the mini season of @projectrunandplay details yet?  Iโ€™m super excited about everyone sharing more of the Project Lounge Library collection and the freebies weโ€™re offering!  First up is this perfectly sized book tote from @jennuinedesign. My girl LOVED the one I made from the second she saw it Christmas morning!  The cut file design is also from the collection as well as her nightgown ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
Thereโ€™s a whole Percy Jackson collection inside there along with three other (heavy) books, so itโ€™s a nice sturdy tote that holds plenty!

Well itโ€™s not as many books as Iโ€™ve read in pa Well itโ€™s not as many books as Iโ€™ve read in past years, nor did I reach my (what I thought was an easy) minimum goal of 50, but then again all that was set back in January before I knew Iโ€™d have very little time to myself for 3/4 of the year ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿคช 
I read lots of different genres, including a few oldie juvenile favorites to preview for or read alongside my daughter. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•
Some were book club reads and some were suggestions from Instagram friends, but I really enjoyed them all. Of course the new Louise Penny was my favorite ๐Ÿ˜

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.
