Simple Life Pattern Co and Sew Caroline – a Mommy and Me Collaboration

Is anyone else super excited about the Mommy and Me collaboration between Simple Life Pattern Company and Sew Caroline?  They’ve banded together to make a collection that is for Ladies and Girls and it’s amazing!

Waterfall Tank & Magnolia Shorts patterns by SLPCo & Sew Caroline Remember Sew Caroline’s Waterfall Tank for ladies?  This new Waterfall Tank sized down for girls by SLPCo is SO GOOD.  There’s the option for tie straps or instructions for getting just the right fit with the bias tape stitched in place.  I chose to stitch it in place since Bean runs around so much I would worry about the ties undoing all the time.  It’s great that they include both options in the pattern!

SLPCo and Sew Caroline Collaboration The swingy top of the Waterfall Tank looks so sweet and will be perfect for summer.  I sewed up a size six and the fit is perfect.  The pattern includes instructions for making your own bias tape or using premade which is a nice detail.  Since Riley Blake sent this glorious fabric (details at the end of the post) to make the tank and shorts I couldn’t pass up using some of the floral for the bias tape straps.

SLPCo and Sew Caroline Collaboration Another great Sew Caroline original is the Magnolia Shorts pattern.  The girls Magnolia Shorts version is just as lovely.  Breezy and lightweight, these shorts will be worn a ton here in the heat of Maryland summer.  And the best part is how quick and easy they are to sew together.  Sizes 2t to 12y means we’ll be able to use this pattern for summers to come!

SLPCo and Sew Caroline Collaboration The two patterns look so nice together, but you’ll definitely want to check out the entire collection including Mommy and Me bundles!  The fabrics Riley Blake sent are so soft and brightly colored; perfect for this collection.  The fabrics are all from the Ava Rose Collection and just stunning.  To see more of this fun collaboration, check out the full tour below!

Good morning! It's time to test the newest patter Good morning!  It's time to test the newest pattern 😍😍
The Bacca Bootcuts are a traditional bootcut jean shape, with a low cut look yet a wide waistband to make them more of a mid rise. 
Testing will begin on Saturday the 3rd and end on Wednesday the 14th, with the fit muslin due by Wednesday the 7th.  I'll need everyone to muslin the view A pants length to be sure the legs are going to fit accurately, but your final can be either view. 
I'm excited to get started! 😘  Sign up here or in the link in profile:
https://forms.gle/aEePLSHDdR9u8Xg76

You'll need the following:
a bottom-weight fabric with at least 10%-20% 2-way horizontal stretch (even for the muslin)
2" elastic - enough to stretch across just the back waistband (this keeps everything snug in place and avoids any "plumber crack" situation 😁)
short zipper - I'll have the exact lengths, but even the largest size uses no longer than 5". I recommend a ykk #3 or #4 jeans zipper (#5 just looks too big with the kids sizes), but any zipper will work.  I'll also have info for shortening a longer zip. 
2 15mm metal snaps or jeans buttons.  The snaps look great and are easier than making two buttonholes, but with the wide waistband 2 smaller snaps/buttons works better than one regular sized one.

I was working on what size Pom Pom to prep for a c I was working on what size Pom Pom to prep for a craft for our moms group next week and the first bunny tail was a little too big for what we’re going to make. So I grabbed some extra Cuddle© Sherpa and put together an Easter hoop 🐰

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.
