GRL PWR!!!



GRL PWR is the new line of fabric from  Amber Kemp-Gerstel for Riley Blake Fabrics.

I absolutely love this fabric line and it couldn't have come at a more perfect time with the first female Vice President elect!!!

The line consists of the cutest Girl print as well as some fun coordinating prints in geometric, florals and representational prints.

I chose to make my Gathered Pouch Trio and I absolutely love how the pouches turned out.  Such great Fussy Cutting opportunities!

You can find the pattern in my Etsy shop HERE


All the zippers are from Sunny Day Supply and coordinate so well with the fabric.


I made a wrist strap for the largest pouch so it could be used as a clutch purse.  If you want to make a pouch into a clutch purse check out my "Create a Clutch - Wrist Strap Tutorial" HERE

I just had to share the cute little prints fussy cut for the zipper stops : )

Last but not least, I just had to make a fun little coaster with all the cute gals.  

You can find a tutorial for the coaster HERE.  

I think a set of these would be a perfect gift and Christmas is right around the corner!

Riley Blake "Dahlia" Designer Rayon

 


Hello!  I am very excited to share a new fabric from Riley Blake Designs.  This Dahlia Grenadine Designer Rayon designed by Corri Sheff is absolutely beautiful.  I seriously LOVE this fabric.  It has an amazing drape and the print is gorgeous.   It has a boho vibe and it was begging to be made into a dress.

I have been seeing lots of versions of McCalls 7969 on Instagram and knew this would be the perfect style for this fabric.


I love the way it turned out!  It is an easy make and those Sleeves!  They are just stunning!


The Dahlia print is also available in this Stone color way which is equally as lovely!
