Saturday's sewing

We were going to do something fun on Saturday, but we couldn't think of anything. It's hard to come up with fun things to do when it's cold and grey and wintery outside. So we ended up just hanging out all day, and I sewed, the boys played video games, and Liam took a long nap because he's still getting over the world's crappiest cold!

Next I think I might make some of these for the boys for v-day!

Baby Overalls!

Tonight's project.... some very portland-y baby overalls with a deer head. I love these. I think they're probably a 6-9 month-ish size.

Back.

Last night's project...

Little shirt and little pants. The shirt is basically the Florence dress pattern but modified (shortened into a shirt, buttons instead of ties on the straps, and button up back, and no pleats). The pants are just plain little straight pants with an elastic waist and some ruffly bottoms.

Crafty day.

Now that we finally know it's a girl - I had to do a little crafting.

I used the tutorials from my fabulous friend Ashley's blog, Make it & Love it.

This is my favorite I think - newborn sized pants and hat with zebra flower and zebra butt patch! Made from a 99 cent turtleneck that was Ben's, and some zebra scraps I had laying around.



And then a matching blanket, hat, skirt and leggings. The hat is size newborn, the pants/skirt are probably 3-6 months? Just guessing. And yes, I totally got this fabric before we found out because I was positive (hoping??) it was a girl. The leggings are the same material as the flower and blanket trim, but the picture isn't very good.
