NEW!! Brown and Red Corduroy

Introducing CORDUROY dresses, john-johns and longalls!

I love corduroy for the colder months, especially the Chocolate Brown and Christmas Red that I've added to the Jackaroos collection. Both are baby wale corduroys (21 wale which is perfect for baby and toddler clothing).

I made my son longalls in each of these fabrics two years ago. They are very versatile. The brown is shown with a casual khaki onesie that matched it perfectly. The red is shown with a white collared polo shirt in one picture and with a very "Southern" big-collar monogrammed shirt, giving it two completely different looks.

New Turquoise Dandy Damask Fabric

I'm excited to announce that I have a chic, new fabric. It's turquoise dandy damask and it's available for dresses, blankets, bibs, burp cloths and loveys.

Dandy damask is very trendy this season and I fell in love with this vibrant turquoise color. It's another great fabric for birthday parties, church, the beach, portraits and baby shower gifts.

The picture to the left is of the actual fabric. The picture on my website is the one from the online store, which makes it a little darker. I think my picture here and seeing it in person is so much cuter...more vibrant and more dainty for little girls.

Pique Fabrics Arrived...Cobalt Blue on Backorder (*Update - It's In Too)

The pique fabrics (white, hot pink, lime green and alligator) that were announced in the previous post came in today. However, the cobalt blue is currently on backorder. You can still place an order for the cobalt blue john-john, but it may take a couple of weeks for that fabric to come in, delaying the delivery of your order.

*Update - The cobalt blue is in too!

New Pique Fabrics

I've already added new fabrics for dresses and john-johns. Since so many of the fabrics were prints, I decided to add some solids. These are all high-quality pique fabrics. I love this fabric so much that I made my son two john-johns in the cobalt blue when he was younger.

Check out our new HOT PINK, LIME GREEN, COBALT BLUE, WHITE & ALLIGATOR PIQUE fabrics. These are on order and will be in at the beginning of next week (around 3/25). Please note that dresses and john-johns in these fabrics may take a few more days to ship out while I wait for the fabrics to be delivered.

What I love most is that you can get so many looks out of these colors. Try pink and green (one being the fabric and the other being the monogram & buttons) or the cobalt blue with either red, gold, orange, light blue or just about any other thread color.

The white pique is available for dresses and john-johns and would be perfect for portraits at the beach, the park or in studio. It would be great for wedding outfits too. The white can be monogrammed with any color thread - light pink or light blue, navy blue, etc.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Stocking Up on Fabric

My name is Jennifer and I'm addicted to FABRIC! I'm searching high and low for the most adorable fabrics for Jackaroos Boutique. There is so much out there and I'm having to hold myself back a bit. I'm ordering lots of my specialty fabrics online and love getting them delivered to my door.

I'll keep you posted when I find new fabrics that I can't live without. You'll be the beneficiary of my addiction, because I'll frequently add new fabrics for my blankets, burp cloths, bibs and children's clothes.

Business Cards & Hang Tags

I now have my own business cards and hang tags with my new Jackaroos Boutique logo! I feel like my business is official, even if I am a couple of weeks away from the launch of my website.

I ordered these from VistaPrint.com which always has incredible deals on print materials, especially if you sign up to receive their emails. I even got the sticky notes pictured top and center and some Jackaroos Boutique magnets to match for FREE!

Custom Labels

My custom labels showed up on my doorstep today! I designed these at NWTag.com and really like how they turned out. I'm so excited to finally have sew-in labels for everything I make!

My New Website!

This is a huge step for me and my business. I wanted a boutique-looking template for Jackaroos and came across this one from BoutiqueMama.com. I didn't want anything too girly or too boyish, so I think this one is the perfect fit. Neutral and chic! Check it out at JackaroosBoutique.com.

Now the really time consuming part of an online boutique is ahead of me...the set up.
