This is kinda fun.  I got an email about this new mini-website tool called Leafletter a few days ago and had to check it out.  It seems like a great way to show a portfolio of artwork or a series of photos in one blog post without smothering the page with photos. 

I dinked around in there and came up with this little album showing Charlotte’s Easter clothes from Kat.  If you click on the title at the bottom, you’ll see a menu of all the pages.  Or you can travel from page to page by clicking the larger photos.  The smaller photos can each be made larger when selected and some of them have added notes.  Click around and you’ll find a photo of Charlotte’s toothless little smile.

Kinda fun, huh?

  1. Love your blog and your site. This is my first time to comment. 🙂 I love the whole idea of the leafletter, but I must admit I’m not a fan. 🙂 And I’ll tell you why – I love to read the blogs I follow using bloglines or some kind of rss feed reader. The Leafletter images don’t show up in these! So I can’t see your beautiful pictures unless I click all the way through directly to your site! I know it’s a selfish reason, but it’s just the truth! I love seeing your photos and hope I don’t end up missing out on some because I don’t know they are there (because they aren’t showing up in bloglines!)

  2. What adorable clothes! And what an adorable child! Not having those teeth doesn’t make a bit of difference, particularly because she seems unbothered.

  3. Hi Heather, I really enjoy your blog and I always drool over your beautiful photography!! I myself am underdeveloped (pun intended) in the photo department and have always wondered if there are easy tricks to lighting, etc that have escaped me. Any chance you might sometime share a few of your secrets to awesome photos? 🙂
    many thanks,

    Thank you for this tip… I often hold back from posting all the pics I’d like because it can be so overwhelming to a reader!
    🙂

  5. You do take the most beautiful photos..this Easter outfit is absolutely beautiful..what a wonderful treasured gift. I love your fabric..though as a novice I wouldn’t dare touch it..just yet 🙂

  6. Cool!! Thanks for sharing the new feature. And that outfit is SOOOO adorable 😀 When I was a girl I could only dream of clothing that fun… it looks perfect on little Charlotte.

  7. What a cute dress – is that made from the Farbenmix “Anna” pattern? I have the pattern and have been wanting to make one for ages, I think now I have no choice!

  8. That looks like an Anna, one of my very favorite patterns. So easy yet so versatile. I love this outfit. Not sure if I like the leafletter thing. I like the BIG pictures! LOL

  9. I’ve made the Anna wrap dress pattern too. It is fun and really cute!
    Of course your daughter looks adorable. And you found matching shoes!

  10. Very cool photo gallery and I am even more convinced I NEED some of your fabric for a cutie outfit for my own little one. What is it about 2 somethings that equals croc obsession? Mine wants to wear hers EVERYWHERE and since it snowed here this week, it’s just not possible. Thanks for the great pics and for the shot of the ecco shoes — they are adorable!

  11. Fun bit of software, but I like the big pics better. I have to now go check out Kat’s piece for your lovely Charlotte on your Flickr account. I was very happy to see she was one of the ebay designers I admire. I love when people keep cropping up in different parts of the web. It starts to feel smaller. More like a community than a series of tubes.

  12. What a totally sweet and precious little outfit. I wish I had the talent to word coordinating fabrics like that. I love the shoes and pigtals, too! 🙂

  13. Just popping back in to echo the above sentiments – any idea if we’ll get Freshcut on the other side of the Atlantic?

  14. Thank you for sharing the info about Leafletter, I’ve been wondering how to do a portfolio of my designs and the information just pops up on your blog – I love the way this happens. Your site is wonderful – especially your photos.

  15. I personally think that your fabric is perfect for such boutique-y patterns, like the ANNA one from Farbenmix – I’ve noticed quite a few of ebay kids couture sellers use your fabric for their super expensive outfits – which are out of reach for most of us. I love that you sell your fabric to the public so that anybody can make such beautiful little clothes for our kids – it makes all the difference! Keep up the gorgeous fabric design work!

  16. OH MY! my girlfriend emailed this to me tonight and i am going crazy!
    when are your patterns available? AMAZING!
    great.. now i won’t be able to sleep tonight dreaming of this dress and fabric. You should get a cut from Lunesta keeping all us sewers awake at night.
    wonderful!

  17. hello, I am Gédane and I am French, I love your blog, your universe and all that you make, also the splendid dress for the small girl, you will be you he possible to give me the name of the owner where to thank you find it… with you and still cheer for your talent… with soon
