Yesterday was crazy hair day at school. I don’t know why the school does this to the parents. Pajama day is so much easier. Crazy hair day in my house means that we have to google lots of cra…

1941 One of my pasion are fashion magazines, and i think that Vogue is the best... When i see this "vintage" covers i recognise that i miss the past glamour... and i realise that the best fashion covers belongs to the 20´s, 30´s, 40´s.... For me the pretties are the art print covers, because the illustration captured the real women esence in those years. Therefore the fashion covers are a sign of the women evolution in the last century... Thank you, Vogue for all this beauty... (Una de mis pasiones son las revistas de moda, y creo que Vogue es la mejor... Cuando veo una de estas portadas "vintage" reconozco que echo de menos el glamour del pasado... y me doy cuenta de que las mejores portadas de moda pertenecen a las décadas de los años veinte, treinta, cuarenta... Para mi las más bonitas son las de gravados artísticos, porque las ilustraciones capturan la esencia de las mujeres reales en aquellos años. Así las portadas de moda son un signo de la evolución de la mujer en el siglo pasado... Gracias, Vogue for toda esta belleza...) 1919-1928 1930-1938 1940-1950 This one from 1947, is my favourite... i wish i was this girl... (Y ésta de 1947, es mi favorita... ojalá fuese como esa chica...) Fuentes: art-canyon.com/

Sometimes I post a lot of things on the blog in quick succession. I want to assure all of my crafting friends that I don't really sew this ...

The bodice reminds me of pebbles on a garden pathway and the skirt features baskets of plump peonies. This bottom-up raglan dress features bell sleeves and a full skirt perfect for newborns to toddlers. The pattern features both charts and written instructions, photos tutorials for the dot stitch and placket, and a schematic to help determine size and final measurements. I have also added links to video tutorials for the button band placket and the Dot Stitch used for the bodice The pattern is 11 pages long but if you want to work with a printed copy, you do not need to print the chart pages for sizes you are not making. The doll is not included in this pattern.

Since the day I subscribed for my coat sewing course last year, I wanted to draw a coat for girls. It's like the icing on the cake for every pattern designer.

Start your morning off to a creative start with easy kids crafts, DIY projects, delicious recipes, and more fun crafty ideas!

Yesterday, I shared on Instagram (I'm @cassie_stephenz), I shared this fast and furious 2/thirty minute session art project that I did with my first grade students using recycled materials...and I received many questions. I'm MISERABLE at responding to questions on Insta (I dread typing on that tiny phone keyboard with my sausage fingers) so I promised to share this simple project in blog form. So here you go! This lesson was created outta the fact that I had two classes that were ahead of the rest (gotta love that!). We've been focusing on the theme of love and last week finished off our 101 Dalmatians. Recently, while second grade was cutting out hearts for this project, I noticed how pretty the negative heart shapes looked when laying on the surface of a messy mat. Later, when I was tidying up, I found a stash of transparency film and had a eureka moment...what if the kids collaged tissue paper onto the film and created a faux stained glass window! I hope that thought process of mine made some sort of sense. Isn't it funny how ideas come to us? Day 1 of a 30 minute class... Supplies: * Transparency film cut into 8" squares * Warm colors of tissue paper * Modpodge * Large brushes * Paper to write names and transport wet transparency film We chatted about loads of stuff before starting: warm colors, transparent, translucent and opaque. We also talked about static electricity as the transparency film was so staticky! One kiddo said, "it's art science!" Art is a science, buddy. The kids then went "shopping" for their supplies. They were to coat their transparency in Modpodge, apply whatever colors of tissue they liked and then add another layer of the 'podge. This was placed on a sheet of paper with their name on it and placed on the drying rack. The next day, they looked like this coming off the drying rack. So pretty! We had fun holding them up to the light. This was also a super fun color experimenting activity as many of the students noticed that when certain colors overlapped, they created new ones. Day 2 of a 30 minute class... Supplies: * Messy mats cut to 8" square (these are the tag board mats the kids use under their artwork when they are painting. I got the idea from my buddy Laura to use them for art projects and I LOVE it!) * Black and white paint * Paint brushes and Q-tips The next day, the kids were to pick a messy mat which they liked the colors of. They traced a heart template, cut it out (starting at the bottom of the heart to make a clean cut) and bring it to me. While I hot glued their "stained glass" to their negative shape, they worked on painting their positive shape hearts. In my room, we talk A LOT about using a paint brush correctly, pretending it is a ballerina who always dances on her tippy toes...and never EVER scoots around on her bottom. This really helps my kids understand how to create delicate lines. Once their hearts were dry, I framed them with more recycled messy mats! I'm so excited how pretty these turned out. Our halls are looking so LOVEly right now. I can't wait to add these to our displays. Hope y'all have a lovely weekend. Stay warm, rest up and take it easy. That's my plan, anyway.

This top looks wonderful as a loose fitting tunic or a form fitting T-shirt. Use your measurement to select the fit you desire. For a loose fit, choose the finished measurements 2 to 4 inches larger than your own measurements. For a more fitted look, choose the one that is 0 to 1 inch larger than your own measurements.
