Well this seems to be the best present for my 2 year old. She is wanting to sew all the time now. Unfortunately someone needs to be with her constantly so she does not get to. Her first sewing was to attach this lace to this material. So proud of herself! Not bad for a $5 pick up from an op shop!
Well after all the sewing for DD1 this was all I got done for DD2 though to be honest she does not need anything really - plenty of hand me downs! I think I will make her more though cause she gets a bit of heat rash so looser fitting things could be better for summer.
Gosh these photos are really dark sorry. But anyway, these are 2 long sleeved tops - you know it is summer but Melbourne weather is so unpredictable a girl needs everything!
This is a pair of pyjamas they are actually a yellow and pink stripe fabric that I bought heaps of when SL was getting rid of it - about 5 metres! Pregnancy insanity it was cause you cannot always wear the same print can you?
The light pink top here is the smocked top I made in a class. May have posted it before but cause I have given it to DD now I have put it in. The pink top with the dragonfly is actually a remake of a top she had in a smaller size. The joys of making their clothes they can always have their favourite and if needed I could make more than one....
Okay so here are the first of the presents I made DD1. The purple dress has snaps on the top now.
These t-shirts are the same colour and for those of you in the know the big guy is my 'Igglepiggle' from the tv show "In the night garden". This t-shirt was the first ITNG present. It was quickly followed by an Upsy Daisy doll and some books.
Here is the Maisy outfit. We are going to a bookshop Maisy event in January so she might want to wear it then. She also got some DVDs and books about Maisy.
For the end of the year my S'n'B group decided to all make a wash/dishcloth for the owner of the cafe where we meet. Mine is above it was a stitch pattern using 2 different needles. I used 4mm and 8mm needles. Then you just do a stocking stitch but when finished it is all lacy. It was quick so I could still work on my other xmas projects.
