I don't know what you've been up to this week but I've been missing my little girl who started the fifth grade on Monday.  She's my sewing buddy so I haven't had the heart to do much sewing without her.  But when she came home yesterday, she asked what I accomplished at the machine.  The look of disappointment was too much!  So, I have been scolded by my "partner in fabric" and told to get back to work!

I asked her what she'd like me to be working on while she was away and she thought I should use some of the vintage trim I found at a local antique shop.  I thought the Pink Fig patterns would be a fabulous way to display some of my gorgeous finds!   

Here is one of my favorite projects using a vintage hand embroidered table runner with the Pink Fig Lydia Dress pattern.

The minute I saw this table runner at the bottom of an apple crate in the corner of a cluttered antique store, I immediately saw Amy Butlers Midwest Modern fabric.  How adorable is this?  And it gives new life to a once forgotten handmade item from a long time ago.

Do you have a little girl to sew for?  I love the Pink Fig Pattern Series.  Her directions are easy to follow and geared towards beginner level sewers.  I have learned new techniques (how to use elastic thread to make your own shirred panels) that I have been able to carry over into other projects I've been working on.  Give Pink Fig a try and save a little money this weekend!

Thanks for spending some time with me today!  Feel free to forward this email on to any of your sewing friends!
