First Studio Drop-In & Three Angels Update

I had my first Lil Blue Boo Studio Drop-In yesterday! I call it "Build-a-Blue-Boo." So much fun. Ellie and her mother picked out several screen prints and mix and matched fabrics to create their own dresses. I love the fabrics they picked out!

Ellie inspecting one of her dresses:


I love the little hedgehog dress she put on......hot off the machine. She would look adorable in anything!


Ellie's mother and aunt picking out fabric choices:


I can't wait for my next one! Thanks Jennifer and Ellie for being my first drop ins!


Three Angels Update:
Thanks everyone for your pattern purchases this last week! Total raised for Three Angels Haiti:

$912.13

The grand total for BOTH days was:

$1,671.65

That is amazing! They are so grateful for your generosity! I was overwhelmed as well as the Lil Blue Boo Order Processing Center:



Receipt for donation:



Playing catch up this weekend as well. I had one niece born last night and one being delivered by c-section at noon today! Going to TRY to get the leggings pattern in the store and finish up some tutorials as well! Have a great weekend!

  1. I love the idea of Build-a-Blue Boo! I would totally have my child's birthday party there if you really had it set up - and it was local. Maybe someday you can do a birthday kit of sorts to order and then I could have one for myself!

  2. NO FAIR!! NO FAIR!!! NO FAIR!!!! Why do you have to be SOOOOOO far away. I know bring it on the road. You can start with your first stop in Lexington, KY. Lilblue would LOVE the horses and horse races and she can play with my little 3 year old. The races will be starting up in April. I Love the blog world but sometimes it kinda bites. Anyway I am sure it will be AWESOME. Still waiting on that new pattern:*). As always best wishes! Michellewash211@yahoo.com

  4. Congratulations on your amazing donation! I am not sure if my purchase made it in because I am in Australia and our days are different but I love the pattern anyway! Thanks so much and I hope you are extremely proud of yourself for making such a difference :)

  6. Oh I wish I could do a drop-in. I have the Sienna pattern. Do you do cap sleeves like the neck? Do you have a tutorial for those? Just curious--the cap sleeves are so cute!
