Been busy working on an order for someone. Seeing these itty bitty outfits make me miss having babies around. Making clothing for little girls is so fun!

Another order done. I love the creativity I can express making colorblocked things. It’s so fun to play around with the combos and options.

I’m a but gotta love when I feel kinda cute in something I make!

This came out AWESOME!!!

I love this sweater! I’ve been having fun playing around with piecing together the front. I can remake this sweater ( or hoodie) at least once if anyone is Interested

This is a fun pattern to play with. There are so many options. 4 or 5 different cut outs in the front. Hidden kangaroo pockets if wanted. 3 sleeve lengths. Hood, cowl or neckband. Goes from women’s xxs(00) to 4xl (30. I think I’m going to have to make a handful of these for myself!

This is how I feel every time I fabric shop!

Bamboo French terry. 3-6 months. Emi sweater and harem pants $10

First time making anything from https://www.facebook.com/groups/411480376296436/?ref=share . I usually don’t buy custom fabric, due to the price tag.... but this was worth it! This is bamboo French terry. It is so soft, and silky. Made this for my little man for Christmas. Hopefully, I can hold off until then to put it on him! Patterns are emi top and 5 seasons joggers

emi top, all short sleeves with bands.
Abb tee, short sleeves without bands.
ABB tee, long sleeves.
Shorts, 4 season joggers, knee length.
Pants, 4 seasons joggers, pant length.
Overalls, over it alls, shorts length.
Hoodie, huckleberry hoodie, single boddice.

I would like to know what my customers would like better. Should I make items and post the photos in an album for available patterns I can/will make? So you can see how the pattern looks made. Some patterns have a ton of options. And I would have to make 3-5 of each style to show all the options. Or would photos from the pattern companies I use be better? You sometimes cannot get a good idea of what they look like until made.
I could organize the albums by pattern type ie: baby, girls, boys, teens, men, women and pets, accessories.
I can set up a poll, I believe, if that’s easier.

With ever photo I post, would you like to see where I purchased the fabric and the pattern I used, and a quick detail if I changed the item from the original?

I can also go through and sew up a little bit of everything in as many sizes as possible, with the fabric I have on hand, as ready to sell items, if that’s easier. I tend to buy fabric as orders come in. I do this as a very small side hustle to help fund my fabric and supply purchases.

I want to know what YOU my customer would like to see. I want you to be happy with your purchases. A happy customer is a repeat customer, and I take pride in my skill to sew up stuff.

Would anyone be interested in baby (newborn-2t/3t) hand made clothing? I have a ton of fabric scraps that I can’t use for my own children. Boy and girl prints and different fabric types. I have a ton of pattern options. Thinking $3-$10 a piece. Depending on fabric/size and amount of work. I’m overwhelmed by my fabric scraps. And would like to clean up my sewing room, and one way is to get rid of the fabric I can’t use otherwise. If interested, please let me know. I really want to get my sewing room under control again! I can take pictures of the fabric I have, in quantities of the size you’re looking for. Or if you’re a seamstress/seamster I can do scrap packs. Please help me get my sewing room under control!! And please feel free to share this. I seriously have too much fabric and the more I get out of here the better!

I’m a smidgen obsessed with these over it alls. This combo is of the shorts over it alls and the anything but basic short sleeve T-shirt. Long sleeves and long pants, along with an over it all skirt style are available to be made! I love making these. And more than happy to do custom orders. *please note, most fabric will need to be ordered, as I do not have much in stock on hand. Price depends on size, and fabric you would want.

Ive had people ask me how I usually can get large quantities of masks done quickly. Well here’s an example. These fabrics are for my kiddos elementary school. I’ll get about 75 masks out of this stack of fabric. I plan to make more for the kids, and some for the staff that will be in the school. Just have to get more fabric and elastic. With kids going back face to face, I want to make sure that if they lose or forget their mask, the school has extras for them. My goal is to donate at least 150 for students and 50 for the teachers and staff. More if time and supplies allow

New mask design. Still washable. But suggest using a lingerie bag. This design makes the ear loops adjustable, for a better fit. And they are gorgeous too.

These are basic, but adorable nonetheless

Our local Walmart just recently started carrying fabric precuts in knit fabrics. $6 for 3 yards. It’s a great price. The fabric is lower quality, but it works if you’re on a serious budget. I took advantage of our local Walmart so I can make pjs for my girls and myself. I grabbed double brush poly and rayon spandex for us. I’m more than ok working with fabric from here if you’re interested. Lots of different patterns I can make, babies, kids, teens, women’s and men’s patterns.

My son is so spoiled. Absolutely love this pattern.

Someone is super excited to have cute fun headbands

Yup. I’m a tad obsessed. I may have more headbands then I’ll ever need in my personal stash.

I made a new thing today. And boy with the summer heat starting to kick In will a bunch of these will come in handy. $3-$4 each, depending on fabric. Many prints available

We are prepping to potty train our youngest, and being momma is crafty, I just had to make him custom boxers! Aren’t they adorable?! I can even make girls and women’s un**es and men’s boxers too! ❤️❤️

Oh I love how circle skirts! They are my albsolute favorite types of skirts to work with.

This was a labor of love, and it is love! ❤️❤️ comes in sizes 12 months through girls 14! There is a scoop back option and a no ruffle option. Cost of labor is $15-$20 depending on style, final cost depends on fabric choices.

Updated fabric available for masks

Working with fun summer prints is always a joy

It’s such a pretty fabric!

Since I had a break from mask orders I figure I’d start working on my kids summer wardrobes.
This pattern is so versatile. Long skirt, medium skirt, peplum style. sleeveless, short, 1/2 sleeve and long sleeve. With or without a cut out or bows in the back. With or without neckband. It’s a fun pattern to work with, especially with the swishy skirt.

Another order on its way out the door!

I’ve got black, brown and green in! Ready for the cutting table.

The black, brown and green I ordered is due to be here later this week, and will be ready to be on the cutting table this weekend!

These are the fabric options I have on hand for masks. Masks are $3 each( plus shipping if not able to locally pick up) These are fitted and they come in adult large, adult medium( most common size), adult small/youth, and youth small. They are reversible and washable, but do not have pockets for filters.
