Today we’re featuring Easter finery, spring dresses and more… |
Spring Dress by Mandy, zigzag stitch
Mandy has used this pattern (“Kendall” from Karen’s Art & Stitchery) many times, modifying as she goes to simplify the look. While you’re at zigzag stitch don’t miss Maggie’s latest wardrobe addition (Mandy’s own knitting pattern– wow!).
Skirt by Emma, NeverEver
Emma made this Lemon Floral Milkmaid Skirt just in time for Easter! She sells this version in sizes 1-4 in her NeverEver shop.
Flower Girl Dress by Tracy, Racey Tae
Tracy made two great versions of this Flower Girl Dress from Weekend Sewing by Heather Ross. She notes that the pattern seems to run about one size small (so the 4 fits a three year old, the 2 fits a one year old, etc.).
Easter Tie by Kirsten, kirsten*can
Kirsten made this great tie from Alexander Henry’s Traffic Jam for her six year old’s Easter Sunday outfit.
Mustard Gingham Blouse by Marie, the glitter cup
Marie used the Japanese Stylish Dress Book to make this blouse (pattern T) for spring. She’s planning on another version of this pattern in a dress length.
Baby Shoes & Matching Pants by Jessica, Balancing Everything
Jessica used the Cloth Shoe Pattern from Stardust Shoes to make these for her little guy. She was compelled to make matching pants too!

I adore those dresses! and that blouse is so nice too…
Okay! Now I’m Inpired! To the studio…
Oh! I adore that blouse!
I love the little milk maid skirt and the Japanese tunic. So many wonderful ideas and new shops to explore.
LOVE the milkmaid skirt!! All these are very cute.
The skirt is my favorite. What a fun use of bias tape. All the projects are wonderful.
The baby shoes are adorable!
I love all of these, but especially the blouse by Marie! I really would like to learn how to sew garments this summer.
The little boots and matching pants are just the cutest!
I love the boy’s tie. I have 4 boys of my own and you don’t see to many things for boys. I think it is refreshing to see handmade, “cute” items for boys too.
If those little baby feet in those little dutch girl shoes aren’t the cutest thing on earth!! This actually makes me want to have another baby, just so i can dress it’s little tootsies in a pair of those. Instead, I will fight the urge and dream of a time when i can dress my grandchild in them….
Loved the little boy’s shoes and pants. I haven’t found many ideas for sewing for little boys. This was good!
I love the flower girl dress. Thanks for the giveaways.

So cute! I love it all, I think that spring is becoming my favorite time of year!
I love the blouse, but everything is delightful. I am so glad that spring is here.
My kids thought the bubble blowing girl was our soon-to-be two year old! Even DH! So that dress is on my to-do list!
All of those things are super cute! Thanks for sharing!
Precious baby girl dresses!
I hope I get my act together so I can make a little Easter dress for my girl NEXT year…
I must go try those baby shoes. We only have a few weeks before walking, so I need to get them done!
Those baby shoes are so cute!
They are all great!! Thanks for sharing!
I just love the little boy shoes and pants. Matter of fact…just love everything…the talent just
overflows on this blog…its my favorite!
sweet little dresses for spring! love some ideas about sewing for boys since I have three of them
I am in love with the little girl dresses! I’m also thinking I might have to try out that tie for my son!
Wow, these girls are so talented. I noticed at church on Sunday how snazzy the little boys looked in their little ties. I’ll have to steal that idea and make on next Easter. I’ve been searching for “matching” ideas for little and big boys. I think if you made the little guy a romper with a cute fabric and then made a matching tie for the “big boy” it would be so cute.
Adorable little dresses!
Cute baby shoes!
Beautiful ideas!
I love the gingham blouse and the lttle girl’s skirt. Great stuff for spring.
All of the ideas are great! I especially like the tie, I’ll try that one for sure. The booties are really cute, too.
Little girlie dresses and cute baby shoes – love it!
I love the mustard gingham blouse! I have been wanting to try out a few japanese sewing books myself, but I am too afraid that I will spend money buying the books and never be able to figure them out in Japanese. I think SMS should do a featured post or review on some Japanese sewing books – I would love to hear from others who have tried them. How difficult are they to follow, really?
The tie is terrific! DS hates looking like everyone else and he could choose his own fabric Will have to make a new tie for DS right after I finish the skirts for DD….
Love the Easter dresses! So cute
What a fantastic job on the blouse! Itching to make that one for spring.
These are so cute..makes me wish that I had more time with my machine…
HELP! The book the mustard tunic is from is sold out! Now what will we do?
That blouse is gorgeous! I would wear that every day. I also adore the baby shoes and matching pants. What a lucky, stylish baby!
Adorable clothes and patterns. I especially love the baby shoes.
love the little girl dresses! adorable!
Everything is really pretty, but I particularly like the Mustard Gingham Blouse. Great job!
Those cute little girl dresses make me wish I had a little girl of my own to sew for. They are sweet!
Absolutely LOVE those little shoes!
Those flower girls dresses are just popping up everywhere, and they are adorable. I might just have to get myself Heather’s book.

Cute patterns!
I was so inspired by this weeks posts I actually made myself a scrap fabric skirt. I used an old pattern so I ended up having a zipper rather than elastic. I’ve grown apparently…still love my new skirt. Thanks for the inspiration
What great projects! They definitely inspire Spring Sewing!
Those are all so cute. I love the baby shoes; need to make some for my girl.
Love the baby shoes and matching pants! So adorable.

They are all so cute! I love the tie and the little baby shoes. I’m going to have to make some of those for my boys soon.
Wish I had young kids to make some of those cute dresses. Happy Easter everyone.
I love the Mustard Gingham Blouse by Marie. I have been looking around for the perfect pattern for a Spring top. In the meantime, the Ribbon Flower Sunflower fabric I recently purchased sits by my sewing machine. Gotta find the Stylish dress book!
OOH! The fabric on those baby shoes is just too cute!!!
Far too many cute and fun projects – as always thanks for the inspiration! Time to get sewing!
