Ottobre

Ottobre made this tunic with my 'Appletree' fabric design. The girl looks so lovely!

Appletree fabric

Remember the sew&cut skirt i designed for a Spoonflower contest? Well this fabric design is based on that design. Lillestoff liked the design and asked me to make an all over pattern with the tree. I'm happy with how the fabric turned out. The colors are bright and the quality of the organic jersey fabric is perfect! And ofcourse i sewed my little girl an outfit. The patterns for the tunic and the trousers came from an Ottobre magazine.

I sewed on the trousers a little piece of the ribbon as a label. That was so easy, but it looks so lovely :) The owl ribbon is also available in a offwhite color.

 

And for a new litlle baby niece called Milou i sewed this sleeping bag.

The fabric and ribbons are available in my shop and on Etsy. So if the blog inspirered you to sew: you're welcome to visit my shop :)

Little Forest Bunting & Giveaway

My little forest bunting design is produced by Lillestoff too! The quality of the organic cotton is really beautiful! On one meter there are 36 flags shapes to make 18 flags! I made a cute package including the fabric, instructions how to make, 8 meter natural cotton biastape, a woven BORA label and a fridge magnet. Soon available in my shop. If you want to buy you can also send me an email.

And to celebrate my birthday i giveaway a package of DIY bunting on my facebook fanpage!!!

Little Forest fabrics are available!

Last week 'the Little Forest fabrics' from Lillestoff arrived. I'm so happy with the quality and colors! It's amazing. These jersey fabrics are made of organic cotton and 5% elasthan. The mushrooms, brown forest, little forest and ribbons are all available in my shop and for international buyers on Etsy.

For my little girl Leonora i sewed a jacket with the forest fabrics. The outside i made off ribcord fabric and added a fleece layer that i ironed on. The pattern for the jacket i found in Ottobre autumn 4/2010. (the mittens and beanie i made with my own pattern) It was a so special to make this for Leonora. A year ago i designed these patterns to decorate her room...and now she's a one year old wearing a jacket with the same patterns :D

Leonora 1 year!

My little girl is already 1 year old now! She's such a sweet girl. Last weekend we had a party ...and ofcourse i made her a party dress with the ditsy fabric design i made a couple of weeks ago. ...and the cake was delicious :D

Apple tree pinafore!

Here it is; a pinafore with the appletree design. I sewed it a couple days ago to see if the pattern is ok. After trying it on my daughter i adjusted the pattern shape. I still need to try it on a bigger girl, but i think it will fit to a 3 year old too. First it's a dress...then it can be worn as a tunic or top.
And it's reversible too :-)
