Hello, friends!

For launch of my newest pattern, Sapphire, I wanted to showcase the pattern in a number of different fabrics, styles, and sizes, so I asked a few of my favorite makers to preview the pattern. I’m super excited to show you what they’ve made today!!

 

I was really blown away with their gorgeous versions – it was so hard to keep these a secret until after the launch. Each of these makers has been featured on my blog this week in their own post, so if you click on the links, you can see more photos and read their notes on the pattern, fabrics, and any mods they may have made to the pattern (like shortening the skirt). I've rounded up the posts for you below.

 

PLUS! I wanted to remind you not to forget to use your special discount code MAY25 for 25% off all of my PDF sewing patterns* (including Sapphire) this month in my pattern shop, or use code YAYSAPPHIRE to get free shipping on printed patterns until next Wednesday (click each to automatically apply the code in my shop).

 

Leilani (@studiogypsy) made four fantastic Sapphires – two dresses and two tops, including one from a vintage tablecloth and a color-block version. It's such a huge vote of confidence when someone makes multiples of this pattern!

Amy (@modernpearlco) created this fabulous tropical print Sapphire. Love that leafy green print – it's so cheerful and perfect for spring!

Nandita (@divinedita) created this stunning Sapphire out of a colorful floral Ankara print. The little flower buttons are delightful, too.

Romy (@sewlike) made a fun overdyed version of Sapphire out of quilting cotton. The cute checkered socks and fun shoes she styled it with are awesome too.
