Lady Skater Pattern Tour: Craftstorming
Today the Lady Skater Pattern Tour is traveling back to the UK to Laura from Craftstorming! This is particularly exciting as Laura is an elusive creature and photographic evidence of her existence is sparse. One of the things I really admire about Laura is her attention to detail, whether it's print matching over a seam (those penguins are matched not just horizontally but also vertically!), adding funky embellishments while sewing, or even baking treasures inside cakes and cookies. You really need to check her her inspired series Sew Yummy and I cannot wait to try out her tutorial for printing onto elastic. She launched her first pattern for the Fancy Pants Leggings recently and if I was to dig deep to find a criticism of Laura, it's that she hasn't made them in large enough sizes for my kids. Or me.

Thank you so much for inviting me on the tour Amanda! I love my dress, even if it did mean I had to come out of hiding.
