Last month we had the pleasure of reviewing the Clemence Shorts from Filles a Maman, which were so cute with their scalloped trim! Today we have the second half of that ensemble, the Amour Top! Check out what our reviewers had to say, and then maybe snag the pattern to sew up for that sweet little girl in your life!
Read MoreSpring is officially here and I know I'm personally excited about all of the new patterns that are releasing from my favorite designers, as well as designers that are new to me. I'm looking forward to sewing up new items for my daughter's wardrobe and getting a chance to put together new fabric combinations. It never gets old! One garment I've already made, and plan to again, is the Lottie Skirt from brownie-goose patterns. You can also see Cassie use an element of it HERE in her Top Stitchers Cinderella entry! I know I love it, but let's see what Paige and Ren have to say about it!
Read MoreIf you are a regular follower of this blog, you know that last month we introduced you to a new-to-us designer that has recently sprouted wings to create her own label. Of course, I'm referring to the amazing Katie from Simple Life Pattern Company. Fresh and fun designs are what we've seen so far, and we're really excited to see what else comes from this sweet shop! Today we have Kim and Melissa here to tell you all about Phoebe's Drop Waist Dress.
Read MoreOne of the things that I love about living in the Midwest is that we experience all four seasons. Yeah, you'll hear us gripe about the allergies, or snow, or heat, but I love that the weather changes and we get to enjoy all aspects of it. I also love patterns that transition well from season to season. Whether it's throwing a cardigan over it or layering a tee under it, I like for my daughter to get a little more longevity out of the things that I work so hard to make for her. Today we have just that kind of a pattern from My Treasured Heirlooms. I'm going to hand it over to Shae and Rebekah so they can tell you all about it!

We're continuing on with our bags post today and we have a great tote from Emmaline Bags, as well as a review from a new-to-us reviewer!

I'm not sure what it is about whirly, twirly dresses that send girls of all ages into a swirling tizzy. The more ruffles, the more instant spin gratification! This newest dress from My Little Plumcake is no exception. Keep reading to see what Alexis and Ari have to say about it!
Read MoreLast week, when Sarah reviewed the Vivian bag, I told you we'd have a whole week of bag patterns. I guess I got my weeks mixed up, but THIS week is when we have the rest of our bag reviews for you! And next up is the Tech Pouch Pattern from Lorelei Jayne, reviewed by Kim. Let's see what she has to say about this fun must-have for all your tech items.
Read MoreThis week on the Review portion of the Pattern Revolution blog, we are all about that BAG!
If you ask anyone that makes bags, you know that they are a labor of love. All of the cutting and interfacing and small details that take your project from homemade to HANDMADE. Then there's the payoff- the copious amounts of drooling by friends, family, and random people on the street that really can't believe that you MADE your bag. Even the ladies at the dentist's office that practically turn your bag inside out because they just can't believe it.
Read MoreIn 2015 we are pushing ourselves to be better: better seamstresses, better bloggers, better photographers, and better reviewers.

An easy-to-read checkbox will accompany all of our reviews, as well as the fun, personal writings and photos. Today we're giving you a sneak peek of this format with our review of the Capitol Hill Dress from Straight Stitch Designs.
