Outfit for a Little Lass

This coat and bloomers was made
for a very special little lady
Juniper Kate
 who was born on her 
Great-Great Grandma's
( My Mom)
Birthday.
The coat is called a Brunch Coat
and the fabric was one I was saving for
some special project.

Prairie Aprons

I am in love with my new apron designs!
I call them Prairie aprons and 
will be selling them in Rusty G.

 The one above I used a vintage napkin for the 
front and also a ruffled piece on the side 
which doesn't show in the picture.

Raggy-baggy Elves

I've finished up 3 sets of
funny elves for the Christmas
sales/season.
They are sewn with the edges 
unfinished so I named them
Raggy-Baggy Elves.


They ended up being quite tedious to sew
as the parts are all so small:)

Baby Beds

With the Christmas season 
coming very quickly it is time to start getting 
things into the store for little people
and also for the Artisan Fair which
will be held November 22/23.
I had collected up several
doll beds to sell as photo props
but those which haven't sold I am
revamping for original use.


I still think little girls need dolly beds, don't you?

Spring Bazaar

The attendance at the Spring Bazaar
was not very good so I didn't sell
as much as I had hoped.
However I thought my booth set up
 turned out really fun
and that's important too:)
I will be having a blog sale shortly
with my remaining items.

Boy Clothes

I enjoyed coming up with some
ideas for clothes for my grand son.
I had gone into Baby Gap
and was not very impressed with what
they had for boys of 18/24 month.
So I made my own!

The gray pants have a red zipper trim
and print cuff,
the jeans have "raggedy" patches
and zipper trim down the side.
I made long sleeve T-shirts with fun
graphics but forgot to take photos:)
I did a very soft twill tape in the waistband 
of both as chubby bellies need to be comfy!

Spicy and Sweet

I know my grand daughter will soon be too
big (and picky)! to wear this type of an 
outfit so I wanted to make a few more 
before that happens. 
The collar on this was actually off a jr. size
shirt from a g-sale, but it fit 
perfectly into the neck line-Yay!
Collars can be a real pain.

Scrappy Sallie

Here is a doll I made for the shop,
She sold:) 
I painted her hair on this time so a smaller
child could play with her and she
wouldn't get wrecked.

Upcycled Sweat shirt

I found a sweatshirt my son
no longer wanted and realized it
was really soft and comfy.
There was also another shirt in the
giveaway bin I thought I could use.
From these 2 shirts, fabric from my stash
and some zippers I got at a yard sale
 I created this...
the best feature was one I didn't plan.
 When I sewed the zipper trim on the cuffs
 it made a ruffle:)

Pottery Barn Knock-off Bags

I thought I'd give these bags
a try as they are very simple to make 
and I had found some nice heavy tablecloths
at a yard sale to cut up.
However once they were done
they bear a resemblance
to an Army bag...
I did add french sayings
like
"Farmers Market"
and "groceries"
to try to make them more feminine
We shall see if they sell at my space or not!

Glamping chair

Here is my first item to add to
my "glamping" supplies.
(glamping is camping w/ glamour;)
I found this basic camping chair in the garage

and because this kind of green is not
a favorite of mine
I made a cover in a nice neutral.
I had amazing amounts of trouble with
the fit but it's okay for sitting by the
tent and reading.

Pillow case Dress


I guess this qualifies as using fabric
from my stash...even if part of it 
was a pillowcase!
There are bloomers in the flowered fabric cut out
but didn't get them sewn yet.
Size 3/6 months

that I've been working on.
Light and soft...

 Boy shorts (size 1)
Pillowcase Romper size 2/3

The lace is the tie that makes the straps on
the romper.

Just Hangin' Out

What a glorious sunny day!
I spent a few hours outside stuffing 
pillows, cutting out patterns etc.
and it was bliss:)
It was also a good day to get 
some photos of a few more outfits for 
the SALE.
