Not that our newest sponsor, Fishsticks Designs, needs any introduction! 
 Bonnie's creative, knit and kid-friendly designs are very well known! She's one of the first designers I think of when I want to sew for my boys, as she offers some of the most versatile and truly wearable boy patterns, which we all know are harder to find.
 In addition to offering a great selection of sewing patterns in both PDF and paper format, she's also a super nice and super generous person! 
She is one of the contributing designers at Create H.O.P.E. Designs and her Watered With Love Layette Set is the perfect go to pattern for welcoming a new baby!
Her blog offers loads of great sewing advice, inspiration and many free sewing tutorials. You'll certainly want to add it to your reading list if it's not already there!

    I JUST bought the inside or out pocket pants, or else that would be #1 on my list, so I'd get the mama & baby bag, and either the pants in the bigger size or the Layette (so I'm set for making gifts for any baby shower!)..or the little fishies undies. Hard time deciding!!

    This is going to sound funny but I would like the 2 of the same pattern in the paper version: The Mama & Baby Bag. That way I could keep one and donate the second one to the Dallas Area Fiber Artists for one of their members!
