Here we are with Day 4 and I can’t believe the amount of awesome we’ve got going on here! Today I’ve got Doodle Number 5 and Sweet Red Poppy. Lindsay of Doodle Number 5 put together a whole collage of garments to help you start thinking fall. Amazing. But I’m partial to Sweet Red Poppy, because I once one a sweet fabric pack from her blog It really is too much awesome for one day, but you be the judge.
Up first Doodle Number 5, aka Lindsay:
I am a full-time Quality Systems Engineer for a medical device manufacturer and nap-time sewist for myself, my son, and occasionally my dogs. I learned to sew from my mom as a teenager, and have been sewing steadily for the last 2 years or so motivated by the need to have unique, perfectly-fitting clothing for myself and my son. In addition to being a regular tester for a few pattern designers, Im an admin for Piccadilly Textile Corporation, a custom knit host, and I’m working towards setting up shop as a custom bag-maker.
And Sweet Red Poppy:
Kimberly is the fabric-hoarding, embellishment-loving, creative mastermind behind the blog Sweet Red Poppy (sweetredpoppy.com).
After minoring in Fashion Design in college, she fell madly in love with sewing and strutted the runway in her own self-drafted and sewn design. She and her husband are raising three crazy kids all under the age of three (nope, no twins) in the upbeat and innovative Bay Area, California.
In her spare time, you can find her dreaming up her latest design, stitching away like a wild woman and taking way too many photographs of her children, all in an effort to avoid the menial daily household tasks of motherhood. Take a look behind the seams at her refreshingly honest posts about the daily challenges of motherhood, the chaos of three under three and her passion for fashion and sewing on Instagram here.
