Big stocking & a little modeling

My 3 little girls were so sweet to let me work while they played around me today.  I have a huge stocking lined up for tomorrow!

 

Little Cupcake was happy to do a little modeling for me tonight.  She is sporting a bamboo Cloth Indulgence medium fitted. 

 

I did a little picking up and organizing, so here is my new sewing room. The room is enormous, so the kids can hang out and color and play while I work. I am dying to get some pics and shelving on the walls.  

A Little Taste...

I seem to always be moving so fast that I forget to take pictures of things before they go out.  My awesome husband was easily talked into a new camera, so maybe that will help a little :)

First, a Sleuthing Hoodie

This sweater took me a whole month!!!  It was a really awesome knit though and I am completely satisfied with the results.  It was for a swap and I got some beautiful Julibeans BBR in exchange for my knitting.  The colorway is Disc Baby Knits "jungle Gent."  She also has a colorway called "Jungle Chic" that I am dying to get!


Next, a set of custom trainers.  No matter how many of these I make, and I have made hundreds, they are still fun!   I just love how cute they are and I remember how much my own little girls loved them when they were potty learning.

 

Just for fun, here is my little princess who is turning 4 this week!

Happy Easter & Sewing!!

We have had a wonderful Easter weekend complete with Easter baskets, egg coloring and bison steaks on the grill!  My rockin' husband worked on our chicken coop so that we can get some chickens within the next few weeks.  Even the weather was nice!  Amidst all the fun, I still managed to get a little sewing in :)

Here are some pads for a customer in Norway. They are natural bamboo velour with colored fleece backing.

A set of pads for a coop order that I am woking on right now. 

Tonight, I will be sewing trainers like mad!!  I have 35 to get done in the next 10-14 days!!!

Custom Diapers

I happily finished an order of custom diapers tonight.  Diapers are time consuming for me, but they are the product that brings me the most satisfaction.  So, without further ado, this is what I have been working on all week...

...next up, stocking some trainers, knitting, Yoga Meltdown, and a bubble bath!

Good Night!!

Dyeing Fabric

It occurred to me recently that I should really make some time to keep up with this blog!  I guess I will start with today.  This afternoon my two older girls helped me dye some fabric.  We started mixing colors and I realized I didn't have my camera, so oh well, we didn't take pics of the process.  There was no way that I was going to step away from the dye to get it. That could have very quickly turned into a disaster!!! So, I will just post pics of the end product.  We dyed some t-shirts for their baby sister, because she is quickly outgrowing all of her clothes and we also did some cuts of bamboo velour.  One of which I am over-dying for a custom diaper right now because the colors just didn't come out dark enough.  I am excited to sew up the bamboo velour into a diaper or two and some pretty mama cloth.  I am extremely happy with the colors :)

Sewing and stocking previews!

I am slowly getting back into the swing of things after getting settled in from the move.  As this pregnancy progresses, I am having a hard time sewing for more than an hour or two at a time, so I haven't been able to do as much.  Here are few things that will be stocking soon at my main shop and at Luna's Gate!  I also on stocking some trainers.

Newborn bamboo diapers.  I love these! They are squishy and soft and are completely made from Bamboo/Organic Cotton Fleece.  I plan on dying some bamboo fleece for some girlie ones this weekend!

This diaper is so soft and beautiful!  It is Bamboo Velour for the outer/inner & Bamboo Fleece for the soaker layers.  I love the way the colors came out, perfect for Autumn!

 

This is a custom order of trainers that just went out the other day! I love sewing trainers, they are just so adorable.  I hope the little boy that these were going to loves the, too!

Knitting & News!

I have taken a couple months off from my business while getting over some terrible morning sickness and moving 1500 miles up to Northwestern Washington.  Washington has been such a great change for us, though moving with a 2 and 3 year old was pretty stressful at times!  The girls and I have been spending as much time as humanly possible outside.  There are plenty of beautiful parks and things to do to keep us busy for a long time!

I have been knitting a lot lately, especially since I have a new little coming in only 4 months!  This first set is my favorite.  It is Ky Baby Knits Grapefruit Love on BFL and it is so soft!

These are some newborn longies in Sugarbubbie's Promise colorway on Canadian BFL and is another favorite. 

This sweater was originally supposed to be for Julianne, but she didn't even want to try it on :(  Her little sister absolutely loves it, so it is hers now!
