Sewing projects – the giveaway and some Christmas finery

December 18, 2007

Well, finally I got it done.  The giveaway outfit, won by Renae, for her 16 month-old boy.  The picture kinda sucks, but since I had it all packaged up and ready to go, I wasn’t going to get it back out for another one.  The red fabric is cotton with sweatered puppies frolicking in the snow.  The vest has black fleece on the inside for some warmth in this cold winter.  The jeans I made of denim and have the cute puppies on the back pocket.  I didn’t make the black shirt, just added the puppy applique.  I hope you like it Renae…you should receive it this week in the mail!

Then, I made a Christmas dress for Anya.  I didn’t get it done in time for the daycare holiday concert, but she wore this outfit and was adorable in that.  I only have so much time, unfortunately.  I keep hoping for that time machine. 😉  I used three different fabrics to make it, and I used this pattern to make it.  I just added the appliques on the skirt, added the ruffle and lined the hood.  She is adorable in it, for the 2 seconds she wore it when I tried it on her.

Then, I made some warm fleece pants for Kailan (who is always cold nowadays), and some cute pants for Anya.  I think I will wait for next week to post those…I’m not sure I will have anything for next week otherwise.  Though, really, I’m not sure you would be expecting anything since next Tuesday is CHRISTMAS!  Where has the month gone??? 😯

  1. PS … Could Thursday get here already ??? I’m sooo excited about your Thursday’s Theme !! I’ve been playing with window light and having so much fun !!

  2. Very cute dress and the giveaway outfit is wonderful, too. I don’t know where December has gone, I need one more present to arrive!

  3. THE HOOD! I love the hood, and can’t wait to see that on Anya. So very cute!

    And I love, love, love the giveaway outfit. So very cute. And we all definitely get a reprieve from next Crafty Tuesday, right?!

  4. Thanks everyone! 😀 I love the little dress, it is so fun. The kitties say “Cool Cat”, “Hip Kitty”, “Naughty/Nice”…I love that!

    I hope Renae likes her outfit. Boys are much harder to make cute outfits for. It is so easy with girls since there is so much to choose from.

  5. Oh Stacy…it’s so cute! William just loves doggies too, so I think it’ll be a big hit for him too! Thank you so much! I don’t know how you find time to do all the things you do! 🙂 I will make sure to email you a picture of William in his outfit after the holidays.

  6. I want to get my machine out NOW! In fact I think I will….oh no, there’s Theme Thursday to do first….and the company BBQ to organise for tomorrow….hmmm where to turn first. I know…I’ll read more blogs 😀
    Bring on the time machine.
