SUSIE MACARONI

I am finally back in the blogosphere!  I can't believe how much time has gone by since my last post.  I have, however, continued to pursue sewing and I recently launched a line of little girls clothing.  As a child my dad called me Susie Macaroni, so SUSIE MACARONI  seemed the perfect name for my line.
The styles are all simple with a little bit of nostalgia from the swinging sixties and the hippie seventies.  The fabrics are all linen, cotton, wool and vintage.  
They are currently in a new shop in Multnomah Village called the Multnomah Marketplace located at 7642 SW Capitol Highway.  Of course, they are also available directly through me.  Take a look at what I've been up to!  
Oh!  And in case your wondering, the cute model is my adorable granddaughter Emily and the mannequins were made by Phil--  
My photography leaves a little to be desired, hopefully in the future I will have more professional photos.

I would love to hear your comments! 
Thanks for reading!!

This cute little flutter top is made from Pendleton cotton and the cropped pants from a lightweight cotton.

And for Halloween--How about a Little Red Riding Hood costume?  It's  roomy enough to have something warm underneath if the weather should turn chilly!
