I can’t believe my little one is almost 5 months old! She gets more fun everyday with her ever expanding skill set. She’s been sitting up lately on her own which is super fun along with her endless smiles and giggles! She loves spending time in her bouncy swing and playing with toys in her […] Read more…

I’m at it again–participating in kids clothes week! This morning’s project was a little baby tank top based on this pattern— which I scaled down and added a bottom band to.

Kids Clothes Week is keeping me super inspired! So last night/this morning I designed and stitched up this little cardigan. I loved the idea of making layers that are easy to put on/take off and so I came up with this pattern for a colorblocked snap up cardigan using a onesie to gauge the measurements. […] Read more…

So far I’ve cranked out a few (okay, maybe more than a few) little shirts since they are […] Read more…
