color my summer RED guest- kelly from sewing in no man’s land

Hello friends! Kelly here from Sewing In No Mans Land. I am sooo thrilled to be visiting Kojo Designs. Aren’t Kristen and Jordan just a riot? I have adored this series and am sad to see it end. I was so nervous about going so close to the end because I knew the ladies before me would rock our colorful crafting world so I knew I had to do something fantastic with my assignment, RED. Where I currently live there are no malls, no little kids stores… um, just no shopping in general. So when I headed to Jakarta and was able to hit up the GAP for the first time in eons I expected to go wild. Once there I couldn’t bring myself to buy most of the stuff though because everything I looked at I thought “I can totally make that!” The one that stuck with me most though was their tiered ruffled dress. I absolutely loved it and was dying to recreate it in shirt form and thought Red would be the perfect color, so I went to town and made the Baby in Red top.

It is super comfy with a single button closure in the back and a sea of ruffles every where else.

I am so happy with how it turned out and how much Evie loved wearing it. When I tried to take it off after the shoot she kept pulling it back down. Thats gotta be a stamp of approval right?

It comes together extremely quickly and is soooo easy a beginner can certainly do it 🙂 I knew I had to do something cool for photo’s so Evie and I headed to the beach with our A-Frame

Fingers crossed you hop on over to Sewing In No Mans Land and lets make one!!
