Pin&Flickr Friday: Coral Belles
Hey! It’s been a while since I’ve posted your amazing creations to my Friday posts! So much to catch up on!
Today I wanted to focus on one company…new to me…and I’m sure you’ll be in love.
Coral Belles. Take a look.
If you are looking for ready made, adorable clothing with OUT TO SEA, here you go. A bit summery for now, but dosen’t it feel nice to see it warm out?
With Gorgeous photography by EM Photography Wow. What a darling collection.
It’s cold and snowing here in Utah right now. And it’s just about now that I start dreaming of summer.
Thanks Coral Belles for sharing such a wonderful collection!
Have you been sewing with Out to Sea or Children at Play? Don’t forget to add your awesomeness to the FLICKR groups or Pin them on Pinterest.

Happy Friday everyone!

STUDIO SALE
CLOSED
As we are redoing the kids rooms, we’re also clearing out the garage, closets, etc. and I’m needing to make more room in my studio. But it’s filled with fabric, random art prints, left over stationery, extra embroidery patterns…you name it.
I’ve run out of shelf space, and I need to make more room!
So, what I’ve done, is filled 30 Priority Mail boxes with:
- USA & INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTS:
- 10 fat quarters of both my OUT TO SEA and/or CHILDREN AT PLAY fabric collections
- 8 1/4 yard cuts of OUT TO SEA and/or CHILDREN AT PLAY fabric collections
- over 40 pieces of stationery
- 4+ Embroidery Patterns
- Random Scrapbook papers in the CHILDREN AT PLAY design
- A coupon for 10% off your next purchase
- A nice note from me:)
USA RESIDENTS ONLY:
- 1-2 random art prints, most likely out-of-print or signed and dated from a while back
- 2+ catalogs of my fabric collections
- random fabric scraps
This totals to over $100-150 worth in products!
But I’ve priced them at $60 each (shipping is included) and will invoice all international orders for the difference.
Note that Australia/Pacific buyers will have the chance to order later in the day.
I can’t promise what you will get EXACTLY (thus the reduction in cost) but I can promise that they are all going to be wonderful. Most of it is products I currently have in my shop, but there will be some things that are no longer available, out of print, or discontinued. Maybe even some hand printed scraps.
If you have something in particular that you would LIKE to see, feel free to mention it in the customer text box at checkout, but no promises!
And if these sell out, I think I’ll try and do another clearing out at the top of the year.
Have fun!
(PS: these will ship out on FRIDAY DEC. 7th, and will be shipped priority mail, so all USA residents will get them by DEC. 13th at the latest. All INTERNATIONAL shipping will be based on how long it takes through customs, and will be shipped first class on Dec. 7th)
(And PS: The ONE KINGS LANE has one more day left!)
it’s live!!
It’s LIVE!
Come and get some AMAZING quilts, pillows and aprons featuring the OUT TO SEA collection.
You just need to sign up for ONE KINGS LANE to see the event. It’s a great site. Promise.
My favorite items are all the decorative pillows with real vintage trims.
And then these canvas pillows with hand stitching….LOVE!
And the quilts are to die for. They forgot to open up the quilts to show the full design (oops!) but I promise, they are amazing. This one for instance, is rows of chevron, alternating with white.
These aprons are reversible, which I Love!! We have a few reversible aprons at home, and I think they are adorable.
Quilts sewn and quilted by the amazing April of Prairie Grass Patterns, Pillows sewn by Sachiko of Tea Rose Home and Susan of Lil’ Tulip and Aprons by Gina of Party of Eight.
They lovingly worked together with me while I designed all the products and they sewed them together….they turned out amazing.
What a treat! I’ll be shipping them from my studio with lots of love!

hey, hey….
So, I’ve been dying to let you all know about this awesome collaboration!
If you don’t know about One Kings Lane, here’s the 2 second definition: online flash sale site site with the top brands in upscale home furnishings.
It’s pretty amazing. I’ve basically done most of my Christmas shopping from there. It’s pretty amazing what you can find. Much of it is super high end designer products, vintage uniques, and home goods all marked down for 72 hours.
So, this monday night, One Kings Lane is featuring my fabric in a super awesome way! I’ve designed about 60 items, all handmade, that will be for sale. Pillows, original art, children’s aprons, and crib quilts. These have all been designed by me, sewn by hand and feature the Out to Sea Fabric collection.
Yahoo! So, mark your calendars:
Monday December 3rd at 6pm PST/ 9pm EST -Thursday December 7th at 8am PST/ 11am EST
Can’t wait!!
Have a LOVELY weekend, and come back Saturday for another wonderful weekend giveaway!

OUT TO SEA BLOG TOUR: The Sarah Jane Out to Sea Dress
So this might be the post that you are all waiting for.
I stopped counting how many emails I got with reference to this dress. And I can’t wait to share!
When I was designing the products that I wanted for the booth, I drew a design for this dress, and tried to find a pattern that would match. When I couldn’t find it, I emailed my friend Cally who made some dresses for Addie back when she had a shop selling her lovely creations.
Do you remember this dress from like 3 years ago? Still a favorite.
Anyways…I drew up a few designs for her, sent her a few pictures and asked if she thought she could work out a pattern. She got so excited and started figiting and I think it was the very next day that she sent me a picture of the mock up.
So, I told her that I’d be getting oddles of questions on how to make this dress, and she offered to put together a tutorial. Can you believe it? I love her.
Thank you Cally for making this Free Pattern for us all to use! It is honestly my favorite dress on Addie right now. I love that it can be dressed up or down…super cute with capri leggings and some ballet flats.

Happy Sewing!
(and do me a favor and let her know on her blog how gracious she is for doing this….a total labor of love:)
Pin & Flickr Friday
I’m going to start a new feature on fridays. So many of you are amazing and have created such gorgeous work with my fabric, prints, etc. And I just love sharing! Facebook, flickr and pinterest are great places to share, and I’m there everyday checking out your projects. But after the survey you all took last month (THANK YOU by the way!) I realized that only 50% of you are peeking onto those sites. Which it totally fine, of course! But you also said that you wanted to see more inspiration on the blog of room ideas, sewing projects, etc. to inspire your own ideas!
So I’ll be sharing my favorite of your creations here, and on Fridays!
Violet Field Threads is new to me, but when I saw these new patterns of theirs on Facebook, I about died. I think I might have cried even.
They took the Deep Sea Jewel colorway of OUT TO SEA and made these gorgeous little nautical inspired dress patterns!
Designing fabric makes me want to design clothing. But since that probably won’t happen in my lifetime (I do cherish some semblance of sanity!) I love it when people use the fabric in such a special way.
Aren’t these amazing?
The fabrics used here are:
Nautical Stripe
Sea Flowers
Sail Away Border print
Ship Wheels
Most pics I’m going to share aren’t going to be as professional as these….so don’t hesitate to share what you’ve made!
Or take pictures of the rooms that you’ve created around Sarah Jane prints, projects, etc.
So here are a few places that you can start posting your Sarah Jane creations: If you see on my Side Bar here on the blog, (in case you are reading this in a reader, and not on the site:) you’ll see the different FLICKR groups (Out to Sea, Children at Play, Embroidery and Decorating)that you can join as my Pinterest account, which I try and repin what I find online! It’s a great way to help others get inspired!
(And of course if you aren’t into any of those places….no biggie…I just want to make sure you know where to post images if you feel inclined to!)
You are always welcome to email me directly and share what you are making or decorating. I’d love to see (and if you don’t want me to share it online, please say so)
My contact info is up there on the right–
Do you have any fun projects you are working on this weekend? The Crisp Fall Air has me in a magical mood….you?
Have a wonderfully creative weekend!
