someone's turning 3 soon!

inspired by chunk from The Goonies

Goonies fan here! I made this keen halter, inspired by Lawrence/Chunk.
I have been known to mix plaids and florals.... perhaps this is why!



'Okay, Brand. Michael Jackson didn't come over to my house to use the bathroom. He was about to. But his sister did.'

do good: mix print 5T

izzy + 2 yrs !

So I sent this flutter sleeve dress to Izzy in May 2009, as you can see in this laundromat shoot: http://courtneychu.blogspot.com/2009/06/izzy-in-flutter-sleeve-twirl-dress.html

And below, is last month! (The dress is inside out! But those yellow seams look so cool!)
I really love to hear that my dresses get SO much wear out of them! Keep going!!!

mother's day dress

I created this dress, inspired by this photo I found of my mom :D

new style : pouch bag : win one too!

So this is how it happens. I save everything. I have been saving the bottoms hems off of polo shirts (among other things) for years. I knew I would use them for something. Some of them turned into asterisk poms : http://courtneychu.blogspot.com/2010/02/asterisk-pom-flutter.html

I accumulated a bucketful and came up with these bags. I sewed about 18 in 24 hours - what does that tell you about me? Something about seeing the variety and colors as a collection is so satisfying.

There are lots of exposed seams and stitches. They don't lie flat. They are not lined. I love their texture. You can adjust the length of the straps by the knots. So if your little girl would prefer a handbag, or maybe a crossbody, go for it. I think some of the moms might be using it as well...

They will be popping up in the emails, please sign up here:
