$75 Violette Field Threads pattern giveaway!

This giveaway is currently closed.  Check back soon for more!


So excited to announce another lovely and inspiring sponsor (two talented ladies, in fact!), Ericka and Jessica of Violette Field Threads.  Their shop features all kinds of patterns for girls and women, clothes, accessories, flowers, and beautiful ideas for things to create.

Take a look at some of their pattern ideas!

Here's a little bit about Ericka and Jessica, owners of Violette Field Threads!

We are best friends that have a passion for design and sewing. We both began sewing from an early age. After we each married and had daughters, our sewing interests turned to children's clothing and accessories. We both created our own boutique clothing lines and the demand quickly outgrew what we each could supply on our own. Our real passion is in the design and creative side of our work, so we joined forces and Violette Field Threads PDF Patterns and Tutorials was born. 

We are inspired by our daughters, vintage fashion, and couture designs. We strive to stay on the cutting edge of fashion and trends. Our patterns are thoughtfully written down to smallest detail. This allows for even beginning sewers to create designer looks. We are happy to allow our customers to sell the products they create from our patterns on a small scale. We enjoy knowing that we are helping other talented people have a successful business, and in turn they are helping us.

What a great business model and parternship!

  7. This stuff is too much, I love it! I've made several pins and clips almost identical to the Ava one using a felt dahlia tutorial online, and the recipients of them always freak out (in a good way). I would love to have a few more flowers to throw into the gift rotation.

    And the "Charlotte" bloomers? Almost worth having a baby for! Though I think I'll stick to making them for other people's daughters....

    I own the Audrey dress pattern and love it. The directions were so easy to understand. I have made 3 so far for my grand-daughters and am getting ready to cut one out for a niece! I am probably going to purchase the Chloe next as it has been calling my name since I first saw it.
