/0 Comments/in , , , /by

There’s a new summer dress in town and it’s super sweet and loaded with options! Are you ready for ALL the juicy details about Daisy? Then let’s go!

Introducing The Daisy Tie Back Dress!

Daisy is the newest dress in the Bella Sunshine lineup and we’re SO excited to introduce her to you! She’s the perfect little summer dress that comes in kid’s sizing from 6 months to 12 years. Like all of our patterns, it went through extensive testing across the full size range to ensure a great fit!

Daisy’s most notable feature is the adorable tie back. How can you NOT love this gorgeous detail?

Next, we’ll talk bodice. You have your choice between a straight neckline, a scooped neckline, or a sweetheart neckline. Something for every dress wearer to love!

And then we move onto the skirt. Here’s where the options really take off! For lengths, you have top, dress, or maxi length skirts. You can make any of these options with or without a ruffle. AND… my favorite option… is a hi-low skirt on any of these lengths! Also with or without ruffles.

With all of these options, you can make a whole wardrobe of dresses and never make the same dress twice! A hi-low top with ruffles and a straight neckline. A straight hemmed maxi with a sweetheart neckline. A hi-low dress with a scoop neck and no ruffles… Just imagine all of the possibilities!

You can get your copy of this amazing Daisy Tie Back Dress here right now for only $5.50 through Friday, July 12th! Great deal on a great summer dress pattern! I know I can’t wait to sew a few for my own daughter!

We’d LOVE to see your Daisy dresses! Just join our facebook group and post away! Or scroll the page for some awe-inspiring inspiration from some of our other fans! We can’t wait to see you there!

We all love a new pattern release, right? These 2 patterns have been a long time in the making, but they are finally making their debut! Let’s get to know Primrose and Coraline!

New Releases! Primrose and Coraline Are Here!

Something brand new to Bella Sunshine is finally here and we’re SO excited! The Primrose Panties, and Coraline Camisole in women’s, kids, and doll sizes!

Primrose

 

First, let’s take a look at Primrose. She’s super simple and classic. The pattern comes complete with high and low rise waistlines in both brief and hipster styles. You can sew her up with knit fabric bands or bind your edges in foe (fold over elastic). So you can customize your perfect pair of underwear! How great is that?

The pattern will come in Ladies sizes 0-30,

Girls size 6 months to 12 years,

AND in 14.5″ and 18″ doll sizing! (Think Americal Girl dolls) 

These patterns will be a perfect go-to for your wardrobe needs, providing comfort and ease in your life. They’ll be on sale until Friday, Feb 15! Get the ladies for $6.50 (reg $9), girls for $5.50 (reg $8) and dolls for $3.50 (reg $5). Or, for an even better value, get the bundle! Doll+girl for $8.50 (reg $11), Ladies+girl for $11.50 (reg $15) or all three for just $14.50 (reg $19.50)!

Coraline

Coraline is another simple and classic style with spaghetti straps and three length options; sports bra/bralette, top, and dress. Use it as an undershirt, a shirt, a slip, or a nightgown.

Ladies sizing (0-30) includes a full bust adjustment like all of our other ladies sizing.

Our kid models from the tests LOVED the comfort.

And again, we’ve also drafted this one in 14.5″ and 18″ doll sizes!

Another pattern full of comfort and style with a great fit… and better yet? It’s not only good as an undergarment but will also make a super cute summer top! They’re all on sale now through the 15th of Feb, so grab them while the prices are low! Get the ladies for $6.50 (reg $9), girls for $5.50 (reg $8) and dolls for $3.50 (reg $5). Or, for an even better value, get the bundle! Doll+girl for $8.50 (reg $11), Ladies+girl for $11.50 (reg $15) or all three for $14.50 (reg $19.50)!

An Emmaline Sew Along is Coming!

/3 Comments/in , , , , /by

At Bella Sunshine, we like to hold regular sew alongs to foster a sense of community, to create together, and to give those who might need an extra little push that needed motivation. So, when one of our favorite new patterns released, we thought the timing was perfect! So… let’s get ready for an Emmaline sew along!

An Emmaline Sew Along is Coming!

How excited am I? SO VERY! I’ve been waiting for the Emmaline for a very long time. I absolutely adore the chevron color blocking. It’s effortless to wear, and easy to sew. The sew along will begin on Monday April 23rd and run for 8 days. Here’s the schedule:
We WILL be allowing hacks during the sew along also! So feel free to grab your Sahara or Amelia pieces to mash with the Emmaline! Be creative! We LOVE seeing all of the thought and work that goes into creating the PERFECT garment. So start thinking about fabric choices and get ready… because it’s going to be fun! You are welcome to do the ladies or child version. Or if you’re feeling adventurous, grab the bundle and make it a set!

Be sure to join our main facebook group as well as our sew along group to participate in the fun! We look forward to seeing you there!

New Release ~ Emmaline

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We’re always so excited for a new design. And this one is no exception. The style and ease of this newest release, Emmaline, will have everyone taking notice! Are you ready to meet her?

New Release ~ Emmaline

Emmaline is perfect for spring and comes with so many options! Let’s work from the top down, shall we? First of all, there are multiple sleeve lengths. You can choose long sleeves, 3/4 sleeves, short sleeves, or no sleeves. The skirt comes in 3 lengths, top, dress, or maxi. The skirt in dress and maxi lengths also have the option of being a simple skirt, or a color blocked chevron skirt! Cool, right?

One of the BEST things, though, is that it’s compatible with the Clementine, which means you can swap out the sleeves or skirts to make a whole new dress! How exciting is that?!

Tester Photos

As always, we have some super talented testers who killed in this test! Look at some of their absolutely stunning creations below!

We’ll start with the girls. They’re so adorable and the Emmaline is so versatile! Perfect for any child who loves a good twirl!

Even the older girls love Emmaline! And with the right fabrics it can be absolutely stunning as a more formal dress!

And last (but definitely not least!) Let’s talk the ladies version! Oh so pretty! And with all the options you can make so many completely different dresses with the same perfect fit every time!

And we can’t forget one of the best possibilities… Mommy and me sets! I mean, really, how can you not LOVE these?!

Basically, what I’m trying to say is that you don’t want to NOT own this pattern! And you can get it on sale for a limited time! Sale is good until Friday, April 13th at midnight EST. Get the child’s version here for only $6, ladies here for $7, or buy the bundle and save more for those mommy and me creations for only $12!

The design features a low scoop front and back; sleeveless, short sleeves, 3/4 sleeves, long sleeves and fully lined bodice. The dress has a full circle skirt that your child will love to twirl in.  The design comes with two lengths; top length (hits at the hips) and dress length (hits just above the knees).
