Anyone hearing, "and now back to our regularly scheduled program" in their heads? I had a wonderful day-break in between our last sew-a-long with the awesome Little Lizard King pattern, Fly Girl! But now, ladies, BACK to BUSINESS! This time we'll be sewing up the adorable Easy Ruffle Shorts and if you haven't sewn them before, trust me, they're super easy and awesome! You're going to love them!
If you haven't snagged the patterns but still want to participate, it's not too late! Grab your Fly Girl pattern here and Easy Ruffle Shorts pattern here - be sure to enter the code: "Fly Girl" & "Easy Ruffle" for a discount. Also, have you liked them on Facebook yet? Why not now by clicking here!
Be sure to check out www.stitchesngiggles.com for awesome fabrics (can you say Michael Miller, Riley Blake, etc.) at REALLY good prices! She also has great daily deals as well!
Snag your super awesome pattern pieces by printing just pages 20 - 22 and assemble them according to the directions given on page 4. I decided to use some coordinating fabric from Hobby Lobby to match my previous Fly Girl.
Fly Girl sewn, isn't she pretty!!!
I LOVE trims so I will be adding trims to match my Fly Girl top. Gather your necessary hard working tools!
Adorable metallic fabric up close!
Don't forget this guy even though we aren't friends right now.
Once you've cut your pieces per instructions on pages 1 - 5 you should have 4 short pieces, elastic, trim (optional) and your 2 ruffle pieces assembled.
Follow instructions on page 5 - 7, do NOT get overzealous and sew both sets together *cough* like I did the first time...
Once you've finished that you should have a piece that looks like this! You have now completed pages 1 - 7!
That's it for today! Tomorrow we will continue on page 8. Don't forget to post your beautiful designs as we Sew-A-Long our sweet little Fly Girl tops and Easy Ruffle Shorts! To be eligible you must finish the Fly Girl pattern!!! Sewing JUST the Easy Shorts will not qualify!
P.S. We will be giving away not just one prize but three! That's right! Three winners will be chosen to win a free pattern. We will select a random participation winner, fan favorite and a Little Lizard King choice winner!
To be eligible to win, tag #LLKSAL every time you post about it!! Tag on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.
Love to all, Katrina from Joe Bangles.
