Hello everyone and welcome to the new Un Petit Design!! I’ve given the site a whole new look, with new colors, new logo and a sleek new design. And it’s an official blog now, as I dropped the “.blogspot” and host this baby myself now. I’ve learned a ton about wordpress, html, css, responsive layout and a lot of other techno stuff so I’m pretty proud of how it’s turned out. I hope you like it too!!

I’ll be duel posting on the old site (.blogspot) for a little while, but soon that will end. So make sure you update your RSS feeds and subscriptions to stay connected and not miss any new posts! I’ve been up to a lot lately and have lots of new posts lined up, plus some insight on why I took a little blogging break too so you’ll want to stay tuned.

Plus! I’ve moved myself into the current times and I’ve added Twitter and Facebook to the dimension here for UPD. Check out all the links for following me over on the top left sidebar.

I’m geared up for spring sewing and I hope you’ll stay tuned – it’s my favorite season to sew for!!

Hurray! Today marks One Year since I started this blog. It’s been so much fun.

Over the past year I have really enjoyed writing about my sewing projects, sharing tutorials and I even released my first pattern!

I wanted to host a little giveaway to make today special. During the process of developing my pattern, I made LOTS of test pairs of the Cutie Capris. I made all four sizes that the pattern includes, 2T-5T. However, my girls are in the 4T and 5T, and right at the moment we don’t have any little 2T or 3T girls around us. What does that mean?

I have TWO Finished Pairs of Cutie Capris to giveaway!

Cutie Capris Giveaway

One is size 2T and one is size 3T. Both look exactly like this photo, they are the pairs that I used for the pattern cover.

PLUS – for extra fun, I’m giving away one copy of the Cutie Capri PDF pattern too!!

To enter the giveaway, be a follower of my blog and leave a comment letting me know which size you would like (either 2T or 3T) for the finished capris. That’s all!! I’ll draw one winner for each size plus one extra for the pattern.

Entry into the giveaway will end on Sunday, July 22nd at 9:00pm CST, USA and the three winners will be announced on Monday, July 23rd.

Thanks for following my blog! I’m looking forward to another fun year!!

Whew! I needed a little bloggy break after finishing up my pattern last month. The computer work was intense so I’ve been busy just sewing and sewing and sewing these last couple of weeks. Trouble with that is it leaves no time for photo taking or blogging. So now I’m SUPER behind with posting all the dresses I’ve made lately!
I realized though that I had made a set of dresses for the girls this spring that I had never posted about, and they have been a favorite this year. Here it is, another variation of my all time favorite M5793:



These were made for a special occasion this spring. I made a pleated skirt rather than a gathered skirt and lengthened the tulle underskirt a little bit (a little too much as it turns out, oh well).
I made them matching shrugs, using my easy knit shrug tutorial and added a little ribbon flower embellishment at the neckline – the girls LOVED this detail.



These dresses had BIG bows in the back – my favorite part.



And what’s a new dress without a new hair accessory?



Alas, they have been too busy this spring/summer making “cupcakes” in the mud outside to be modeling dresses and taking photos with me, so I’m lacking photos of them wearing much of what I’ve made them lately, but that’s OK with me. Summer is so short here, we must enjoying it while we can!
Make sure you stop by my pattern shop and check out my first pattern, the Cutie Capris! I have a fun giveaway planned for next week – stay tuned for it!
