All done! Can’t you just see me doing a jig?? The Boy loves his costume and doesn’t want to take if off once it is on…so it took me awhile to get pictures. His pirate pants are made out of a striped brown corduroy fabric. I made them short and cuffed to show off his […]

Renaissance girl costume
By Stacy on October 18, 2007Here it is! Much blood, sweat and tears (and occasional curse words) went into this little number. Upon putting it on her, she immediately wanted it off. I should have lined the dress, but hindsight being what it is…she will have to suffer!(or I will just put a t-shirt on underneath it 😉 ) I […]
As I was going through the Princess’ warm weather clothes (since it went from summer to winter within DAYS), I was trying to decide what would go into the give-away pile, and I remembered that I never posted this one when I made it last Fall. Sadly, it is too small for her now, so it is going […]
…in answer to that question of whether I save money by making clothes for my little princess, and occassionally, the prince. This would be the reason why. I have a bit of a fabric obsession and I can’t help myself but to purchase at least a lot little when I go to the fabric store. […]
I have my 15 year class reunion this weekend, and I really want to show off my little girl. 🙂 I fell in love with this fabric the moment I saw it. It is a strip sewed fabric with an embroidered piece in between a batik print. I bought a coordinating batik print, and designed […]
There’s not much else that I dislike more than making hats. They don’t take that long, but they are just a huge pain and I always get stuck with about twenty pins. A friend of mine asked me to make her a hat for her daughter’s wedding, since it was outside at the end of July […]
So what exactly do you do with a onesie shirt when your little girl is potty trained? You certainly can’t put it on her since she can’t deal with the snaps. Just turn it into a little dress! This was a plain brown Old Navy onesie. First, I cut the bottom off the top, right […]
Well, this isn’t a fantastic picture of her new swimsuit, but it will have to do. This fabric has a fun cream, taupe and brick red tribal print. Just what a two year old with a touch of American Indian blood needs, right? This is pretty similar to the other swimsuit that I made for […]
I have made, oh, about 50 or so of these baby carriers. I wanted to make one after seeing some online and knowing that it wasn’t that hard to make. I looked at many of the designs and figured out what I wanted out of mine. Mostly I wanted it to be pretty and comfortable. After posting mine […]
Well, I just had to make the blondie a cute little 4th of July dress. No pattern, again, just a basic twirl dress with shirring all the way around on top. I made a little pinwheel to accent the halter, with a fabric button and flag charm sewn on coming out from underneath it. She […]
