Sew Mod

Seriously, is this not ADORABLE!? Patty Young has inspired me once again with the Asian-inspired shirt and sewing pattern, Kyoko! http://www.thefabricfairy.com/index.php/retail/kyoko-boutique-sewing-pattern-for-modkid-by-patty-young.html Little bit funky but so so chic! I can’t wait to get on the sewing machine and try making these for my girls out of some of their favorite Japanese fabrics (although I love it so much in Patty's own fabrics that it is tempting just to replicate what she has done...).

What is also great about this pattern is that it is loose-fitting and no need for buttons, zippers or snaps. I am sure many of you can attest to a busy parent’s schedule…How efficient is this?! Pull it up, pull it over…let’s go!

Getting the pattern scoop from Patty Young at Quilt Market She was one of my first customers, and I am so proud of all that she has accomplished!

  2. I have to confess that I didn't--I bought it in a last minute pre-Quilt Market mini shopping spree that would have been a sewing spree had I not been planning for my grand opening (scheduled a week and a half after I returned). Can you feel me blushing?
