World Book Day Blog Tour: Day Two!

It’s Day Two! Welcome back to the World Book Day Blog Tour and boy have I got some prettiness to tease you with today!?

How sweet is that little collar?

When I first became a part of the online sewing community, one of the first bloggers I followed on social media was Maria from Fairies, Bubbles & Co. Therefore I was ecstatic when she agreed to take part in the World Book Day Blog Tour.

Maria creates the most beautiful vintage-inspired garments in timeless fabrics. I absolutely love her wintry plaid ‘robe taille basse’ dress and the Japanese summer top she made for her daughter during KCW Summer 2015. I love the way Maria uses Liberty-style fabrics as subtle design details on so many of her pieces. She has a distinctive style that I just adore!

You may notice we’ve had a slight re-jig of the line-up, and I’m so pleased to be introducing Shelly from Sew Shelly Sew on Day Two! When Shelly sent me the photos from her shoot, I knew you’d all love what she made, and now you get to see her ‘Secret Garden’ dress a few days earlier. Yay!

Shelly makes the sweetest clothes for her children and I particularly love all of her recent versions of the Coffee & Thread Eleena Dress (she also made one in a knit, which worked SO well!). On a side note, Coffee & Thread have kindly donated a pattern of choice for both Giveaway 1 & 2, so be sure to enter them both. Anyway, back to Shelly! Perhaps one of the cutest sews I’ve seen over the last few months was her gorgeous Wild Things Coat. I mean who doesn’t love bear ears on a garment?! Head on over to her blog to find out more about her amazing World Book Day Dress as well as a heap of other cute sews!
