I got to sew with Art Gallery Fabrics again!!! They just released the lookbook for the new Flower Bloom collection and it has a fun, retro, summer vibe!

I also switched up the models… my nieces took a turn and had so much fun in the peach blossoms at Dries Orchard. We could not have asked for a more beautiful day for our photo shoot! Dries Orchards has lovely rolling hills at the base of a mountain. We even visited the store when we were done to get a few treats. They have a variety of baked goods, candy, and gifts along with the fruit grown on the farm.

Project Run and Play girls retro outfits

For my older niece’s outfit I sewed Rocky Shore Tights in knit Flower Child Fierce but added a little flare at the bottom of the legs for the retro vibe. The top is a Lemon Tee and I made iron-on fabric letters with the Good Vibes digital design. She also got a Van Gogh Bag in Choose Happy Olive canvas, lined in Shifting Vibes cotton. I got a little carried away with the hand embroidery on the patch, styling it to match the Flower Bloom fabric collection logo.

Girls retro outfit for Project Run and Play

My younger niece got an Easel Tee with a flower applique. I did lower the crop line just a bit. The skirt is an Evergreen midi with two tiers (although it is a little longer on her) using rayon Stay Groovy Scarlet.
