The Karen Faylor Company: October 2010
http://karenfaylor.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
The Karen Faylor Company. October 27, 2010. Little Red Riding Hood. Jerry Roberts used our Savannah. Pinafore pattern to help create Little Red Riding Hood's perfect look. Instead of Savannah's ruffle, Jerry bound the edge in a microcheck bias to match the piping that she used on the collar and cuffs. After Jerry adds the basket lined in red gingham and filled with goodies she'll be ready to head to Grandma's house. Click here to see the Savannah. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Karen Faylor Company: Venice Button Jumper
http://karenfaylor.blogspot.com/2011/08/venice-button-jumper.html
The Karen Faylor Company. August 31, 2011. This little jumper was created from our Venice Chemise and Capri pattern (more details on how that was done next time). The dark olive corduroy and vintage-look buttons are nice for fall and school and cooler weather fun times. To begin, I sewed up one side seam of the skirt, placed the long skirt piece on my work surface, dumped out the buttons and started playing. I tried wavy lines of buttons, pointy lines of buttons, shapes and random button scatterings.

The Karen Faylor Company: Inspired by Shape and Texture
http://karenfaylor.blogspot.com/2011/11/inspired-by-shape-and-texture.html
The Karen Faylor Company. November 1, 2011. Inspired by Shape and Texture. It was a beautiful morning. The sun was shining. Oscar the Golden Retriever wanted to play outside. And I needed inspiration. Again. Fall is my favorite season and a fading fall garden is filled with non-floral beauty. Spores on stately ferns. The sweetness of the last of the blackberries. The smooth drupe of the Japanese Snowdrop tree and a sky of extraordinary blue. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Karen Faylor Company.

The Karen Faylor Company: A Child of Spring
http://karenfaylor.blogspot.com/2013/06/a-child-of-spring.html
The Karen Faylor Company. June 6, 2013. A Child of Spring. I know a little maiden,. She is very fair and sweet,. As she trips among the grasses. That kiss her dainty feet;. Her arms are full of flowers,. The snow-drops, pure and white,. Timid blue-eyed violets,. By Ellen Robena Field. The bonnet from our Toddler Coat and Bonnet pattern was used for the sun bonnet. I reduced the brim by 1" at center front, tapering it toward the sides. Add simple leaves to complete the bonnet. The Karen Faylor Company.

The Karen Faylor Company. November 15, 2010. The Velveteen Coats and Bonnets. Guest blogger, Sara Norris, shares her story of The Velveteen Coats and Bonnets. I have wanted to make my two granddaughters precious coats and bonnets since they were born. I had envisioned them wearing these once they got to be toddler age. (The look I had in mind was just not the same effect when they were "babes in arms".) I think I may have had the Shirley Temple syndrome! Even though I had made this pattern before, it had...
