Chocolate Lollipop

Posted on 7:23 PM by fjtrfjf
I'm sure I'll dream in color tonight - Chocolate Lollipop hues to be exact. I spent a blissful weekend creating with Anna Maria Horner's new fabric line! I needed a dress to wear for a friend's wedding we will be attending when we travel to the U.S., and who doesn't need a little tote to go with it? Here's what I came up with - I did my best without a pattern, my first try at designing something more than Montessori materials and skirts. You can wear it with or without the sash - the sash dresses it up a bit. I've also found that the sash will double as a very useful scarf come fall.


For the tote, I used a great (and super easy ) tutorial from Belle Epoque.
Another shoulder bag with fabric from my stash. I found the tutorial here. This bag is a perfect size, and has a nice little pocket on the inside.
xo,
Meg
