Eeeks!! I am so excited to be on tour with Lori Whitlock and Riley Blake Designs to show off Lori's latest line, Happy Day! This gorgeous line is full of color, flowers, kites, butterflies and charm! These fabrics instantly make you smile.
If you've been following along the Happy Day Tour, you've probably noticed a recurrring theme... quilts. I'm here to shake things up with some sewing for my two happy reasons in life -- my girls. (...and I've never sewn a quilt in my life. HA!! I admire those who have -- such patience!)
As I browsed the fabrics selections, Happy Main in White caught my eye along with Happy Floral in Aqua. I had visions of a maxi skirt and summery top. While I sometimes choose between my girls for whom I'll sew, I thought the Happy Floral in Red would make a cute coordinating romper. All three patterns are from the Breeze Collection that released this Spring at Little Lizard King.
My 6 year old has developed a recent love for maxis. I used the Mayari Skirt in a 3 tiered maxi length which showcases the main print really well. The skirt also comes in a 5 tier which is a bit twirlier (shhhh, don't tell my daughter) which would be perfect for mixing several prints from the Happy Day line.
My little blondie has gorgeous blue eyes which I love to accentuate by choosing a blue hue for the top. The Happy Floral in Aqua is almost a perfect match for her peepers. It sewed up so beautifully in the Isla Top by Little Lizard King.
My 8 year old is at that age where she needs to feel cool, especially to wear handmade. I turned to the Havana Romper by Little Lizard King. It was my first romper I've ever sewn, if you can believe it, and my daughter is in love! She felt very fancy and the Happy Floral in Red complimented her skin coloring and chocolate brown eyes.
I added mini pom pom trim for added detail.
We had a little photo shoot in our new backyard where we have spent many happy days since making the move!
Thank you Lori Whitlock and the Riley Blake Designs team for the invitation to tour with you and to be a member of your Contributor team. I feel so very honored and blessed to showcase your fabrics. There is nothing but love from my girls and I for your fabrics!
