.Creative Cards by Make It Perfect.

Have you heard of the new Creative Cards my distributor, Creative Abundance have started producing?  They are such a cool concept - a mini-pattern, if you like.

Make It Perfect Creative Cards are a fun, compact mini-pattern.  They come as a single folded, high-quality A4 card and contain all of the step-by-step instructions and templates needed to sew fast and easy projects.  Creative Cards are perfect for people with little pockets on time to create!  Best of all, they are priced at a very affordable $5.50 (RRP in Australia), making it even easier to pop into your shopping cart for a very achievable project.

I've been working on a few Creative Cards and want to share my first two with you today...


Snappy Ties are a great way to accessorise your boy for church, special occasions, holidays or just because!
They are fully lined for a crisp, durable finish and easy to wear with an adjustable neckband.
Snappy ties fit sizes 1-10 years and are so fast to sew that you won't be able to stop at one!

The Tea Party Skirt is guaranteed to put a delightful smile on any little girl's face.

It features a cute apron panel with decorative ribbon trim and is light and comfy to wear.

The Tea Party Skirt is extremely quick and easy to sew and comes in two size ranges 6 months-5 years and 6-10 years.

You may recognise the Tea Party Skirt as a pattern from my book.  I love this skirt so much that I've decided to release it as a Creative Card for people who don't have a copy of my book and also for people outside of Australia who can't get a copy of the book (and as far as I can tell, it doesn't look as though it is going to be released internationally at the moment) so hopefully this will tide you over for a little longer!!  Book patterns only go up to a size 5 so the Big Tea Party Skirt Creative Card will also come in handy for those wanting to sew for older girls.


Check out the Snappy Tie and Tea Party Skirt pages on my website for more information about these patterns.


I'd love to give away some Creative Cards - two lucky people will win a copy of each of the new cards.  If you would like to enter, please leave a comment on this blog post and make sure you leave an email address or have an email address connected to your profile.  Winners will be drawn at random and giveaway will end on Wednesday 23rd May.

  11. Thought the tea party skirt looked familiar... and my little miss is almost size 6, so she won't fit the pattern in my book anymore. And with 2 boys as well, the tie would come in handy too :)
