... there were two little Princesses who grew so tall
that they didn't fit into their mum's favourite jacket pattern anymore.
but then....the pattern-making-Fairy-God-Mother made a new pattern!!!
In sizes 6-10, big enough to fit them both for many more years to come.

Their mum (let's call her the fabric-hoarding-Queen!!), then jumped online and ordered some very special Far Far Away 2 fabric, covered in Sleeping Beauties and Rapunzels to make the new jackets from.
and everyone lived happily ever after!To have your very own happy ending with a Big Uptown Girl jacket, pop over to Toni's blog and win yourself a copy of the pattern.
(The Queen realises she should have pulled out the Royal Pressing Machine and ironed that fabric after washing it and before posting a pic on the royal blog!)
Karen, those jackets will look amazing in FFA2 fabric.
ReplyDeleteI will look forward to seeing them made up.
I can't wait to see those jackets finsihed - I'm still trying to get around to making the same jacket for my little one, but it might not be until next year (the pattern has been sitting here for about a year now!!)
ReplyDeleteReally lovely fabric, the jackets will look great.
ReplyDeleteThey will look great made up.
ReplyDeleteYour girls are getting big!
Such a sweet story. Looking forward to seeing the gorgeous princesses in their new jackets.
ReplyDeleteThe Queen never irons! I can't believe how grown up the girls are looking

ReplyDeleteVery enchanting .... What lucky "big" Princesses to have such a special Fairy Godmother create perfect things for all their wishes to come true!! ...

I love the FFA fabrics but I am still on the fabric ban so I doubt I will be buying any :( Unless I can convince myself I REALLY need it...
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the jackets, they are going to be beautiful.
ohhh your girls are so big, they would tower over my little petite keira any day!
ReplyDeleteI have this pattern and must get cracking before winter finishes! Keira wants to wear a dress everyday! mind you we won't be needing the big pattern for a while
love the far far away 2, gorgeous! waiting for my stock to arrive
Corrie:)
Even when not ironed these fabrics are just beautiful! I have some of the first fabric that I haven't been brave enough to cut into yet. I can't wait to see the jackets!
ReplyDeleteThat fabric will be perfect for jackets! I really must order some of it for myself.
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous! The fabric, the pattern, your cute little girls! Hhmm maybe we should have a crafternoon so you can help me make a jacket for my own tall girl...
ReplyDeleteHey, aren't the jackets finished yet?! Just kidding, can't wait to see them.
