::New in the Studio::

My sewing machines are staying busy these days.  I actually have both of them set up and use them all the time.  My old school Bernina 1008, which I call the 'work horse', is mostly for quilting projects.  The walking foot stays on it as does the white thread.  My newer Bernina 215 model is used for the smaller projects, especially the appliques and burp cloths.  The needle down feature of the 215 is a must for those.

Another reason for keeping the two machines in use?  My girl can sew next to me.  Can I just tell you how much I love that?  She made her own initial bag and learned how to use the zig zag stitch around the edge of the applique.

While waiting for my help in finishing her bag, she absently-mindedly doodled a cat and we turned it into an applique for the back of the bag.

A picture of our NYE celebration.  The three of us met up in North Carolina with family for a couple days and it was awesome.  How can you not have fun with all these kiddos?

Pumpkins on Pink!

Same Pieced Pumpkin Applique as these...

but now on a pink shirt!

with a little bla-bling

Want one for your little darling?

Email us at threesisterz.dresses@gmail.com.

We hope to list some in the Etsy shop soon.

Here's a little dress that is going to be in the shop soon.

I love the orange and black of this plaid.

It works for Autumn and Halloween

but it is a bit more subtle

than some other holiday dresses.

It can easily be worn past

October 31st.

And what about a matching headband?!? Ca-ute!

Molly's subway art looks

so awesome

in a black frame.

I think it's going to sit here

on my kitchen counter

instead of hanging on a wall.

In the spirit of all things pumpkin and Halloween,

my sisters and I will be hanging out with

Miss Midwestern Sewing Girl

over at her very first Everything Halloween Party!

Hope to see you there!
