With holiday season in full force and the busiest time of year for a lot of mamas, you may be feeling overwhelmed (just me?!?!). Dinners to plan, houses to decorate, outfits to coordinate and of course SO MANY things to sew. I call this time of year crazy season- family photos, work parties, family holiday gathering…. the list goes on. Made for Mermaids, along with my sister, Patterns for Pirates are here to help! We want to help you get a kick start on holiday sewing, starting with YOURSELF! Mamas often leave their outfit for last, get the kiddos and husband together and then you’re scrambling to find something in your closest or sewing the night before. We’re bringing you a full week of inspiration from some fabulous bloggers. They’re going to show you what they’re wearing for upcoming events with patterns from our shops. 

Today we have Katy from Wild & Wonderful, showing her inspiration for her family photos. Katy is wearing a beautiful Mama Mya in sweater knit, paired with SOS knit pants in stretch denim. Check out her photos and post here!Up next is Heather from What Does She Do All Day? who is also showing us family photo inspiration. Heather wore a Timeless Tunic in dress length in a floral denim. Check out more photos in her post here.

Last today is Alex from My Creative Room. She made a stunning Mama Lea dress for a dinner party. Check out more photos and see how she added that beautiful applique on the back here.

See you tomorrow for more beautiful bloggers and outfits! Check out the schedule below and follow along.
