.MIP Pattern Parade: CRAFTINESS IS NOT OPTIONAL.

Our next participant on the Pattern Parade is Jess from Craftiness is Not Optional. Jess' blog name says it all...if you haven't visited her before then you have to - she sews everything, bakes the cutest cookies, pulls off amazing parties and has recently finished the most detailed dollhouse I've ever seen.

Today Jess is sharing her Essential Shorts on the Pattern Parade runway. She made her shorts out of chambray - the perfect fabric choice to coordinate with everything. Don't they look great on her? Go to Craftiness is Not Optional to see more!
