Marion by Natalie is back in Business.



Check it out at www.marionbynatalie.com.




Currently selling Aprons, Skirts, and dresses.


Nursing covers will be posted soon as well as new dress styles and skirt styles.

Mother's Day Boutique

Being a mother has changed a lot about the things I want to create.
I still love making clothes and am working on a few new designs, but I have also discovered interest in other creations.

In April I will be joining several other ladies at a Mother's Day Boutique in Pecan Creek.

The Marion by Natalie table will be selling Nursing Covers,









matching burp rags,




and Aprons.

I love this stripe fabric. It makes me think of lemonade!





I recently picked up an embroidery book on sale at Joann's and can't wait to include embroidery in my apron designs.

I am very excited about the boutique and can't wait to finish making all of my pieces.

If you are interested in any of these things for yourself or for a gift for a friend and you don't live in Queen Creek, send me an email and let me know what you are interested in.

I am looking forward to getting back to my sewing now that pregnancy is no longer eating up my creativity.

Congratulations.......Finally!

After several weeks of time off from Marion...I am finally ready to announce the winner of the Memorial Day giveaway.



Congratulations...........Whitney Stevens!


Email me, or facebook me and we will get everything sorted out.


Thank you all so much for the support.


Jack and I will be going on a week long vacation next week to Disneyland. After we return Marion will be back in full bloom. Look forward to skirts and new shirts to start off the fall season.

Can't Rest

Sometimes I come up with ideas for skirts and I can't rest until I have made them.



Apparently that was the case today.
My mind woke up at 3 this morning with an idea in my head for my very favorite yellow print fabric and I could not go back to sleep until it was finished....











Later on this morning as I was substituting a dance class and somewhere in between Plies and Tendus I thought of another skirt idea.







As soon as I had taken a little nap I rushed to Joann's, {worst idea ever. Note to self: only visit Joanns in the morning on weekdays...Saturdays are off limits.} purchased the fabric I had envisioned in my mind, and rushed back home while creating the skirt a million different times in my head.







Today was a two skirt day. Tiring and productive. My brain hurts and I need some rest.


{Each of these skirts will be available in the shop soon. details to come.}

New girl Tees

Today there are new girl tees in the shop.



The Caribbean Girl Tee

This is such a fun color for young girls. I love the playfulness of the yellow flowers against the sky blue shirt.



The Freedom Girl Tee

Every girl needs a fun 4Th of July shirt to wear to summer festivities. I love the combination of stripes and complimentary buttons.


Don't forget about the giveaway.... enter here.

Marion in Review

Connie over at About Him and Her did a nice little review of Marion by Natalie.




I few months ago Connie asked me to make her the St. Patricks day skirt that I had made for myself.


It was my first project for someone else and I enjoyed it a lot.
Typically when I start a project I do not really know where it is going or what it will end up looking like.
This was nice because I was familiar with every single step and it cut the sewing time in half.



Thank you Connie for all the support!
