VA Christmas Market 09

A.J.JACKS had our first show this past weekend in Virgina. It was amazing. The three of us had such a great time and people loved our clothes. We are excited about the future for our little company and cannot wait to all be together again for another show. We are planning for this spring and summer. We also had several offers from private show owners. It should be an exciting year. Check us out on Facebook too! Our new website is almost complete. Our products will be available to purchase online in a few short weeks. We look forward to hearing from you then!

NYC Anyone?


So, we are a week away from our big show in Virginia! We have worked very hard for this show and I can hardly sleep thinking about it. That is until I read O + S and now I want to head to NYC on the 14th of next month for "Modern Women of Sewing". It looks F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S. Anyone want to come? Can you imagine....Christmas time in the city? Keep dreaming....keep dreaming. Have a great weekend.

Our own site!!

ajjacks is now working on our very own website. We are excited about this for MANY reasons. Sorry for the lack of posts over the last few months. It isn't because we haven't been working. We have indeed. That is one reason for the lack of posts. Too much work. We are currently building up inventory for our first craft fair in Virginia Beach, VA this November. If you are interesed in visiting our booth visit here for information on the fair. We would love for any of you to come and visit us if you are in the area. We are also in the process of booking other craft fair/markets. Let us know of any near you.

Puppet Show Tunic

This is my favorite shirt so far. It was the most pain stacking to make but well worth all the pain. I tore the shirt apart 3/4 into it when I thought I misplaced the darts. No, the darts were NOT misplaced so I had to reconstruct and figure where I went wrong after that. I LOVE the back. The red buttons give your on-lookers a little treat as you walk away. Perfect with a pair of red shoes. Don't you think?

And the collar is perfect!! Can you imagine it with a vest? Oh I can't wait to finish one for Celia to match. I think I may have forgotten how much went into this one. I think the next one will be alot smoother.

Easter Dress


Every girl should have a bow on her birthday.........why not on her dress? In this case it was Easter, but hey, it worked so well for them.
The inside hem of the skirt matched the bow. It gave it a special touch in case the wind blew it up a bit.
These were not the dresses I had planned for Easter Sunday. I was actually on time this year and had the girls Easter outfits all ready well in advance....that is until I made MEA's Easter dress Thursday (yes, the night before Good Friday) and fell in love with it. I thought, "Sure I can make two more for the girls before Sunday morning." So Friday night and Saturday night I was up 'til 2 am constructing these. And I love them! And the girls enjoyed them too. MEA is out of town this week so I can't photo her with the girls. I will get the three of them when she gets back and post. Her dress is in a different print but all three from the same line of fabric. I also cut out pieces for 6 other dresses in the same fabric. Which means that I will be adding them to our Etsy site soon. They make a FABULOUS "Birthday Party Dress".
