Winter Sewing for Sunshine

I'm so excited for winter to be here! I've started making some warm things starting with Sunshine since she has pre-k and is in serious need for warm clothes! The cape is out of my Oliver+S book "Sewing Little Things." Although fleece wasn't a suggested fabric it worked very nice. I wanted it to be practical and keep her warm and boy isn't it comfy, like wearing a soft blanket! The jacket was is the avalon jacket from "Sewing Clothes Kids Love." I used some red apple corduroy Sunshine picked out and some fleece as the liner. Over all we got 2 very warm and cozy things finished yesterday!

Fleece Robes

Dramatic kids act they are hypothermic when they get out of their baths- hopefully these help!

First Picture Day

I made sunshine a dress for picture day. I can't believe my baby girl is in school already!

Winter Hats

Hot coco, coffee, soup, warm blankets, and sewing with soft wools and fleece are just a few reasons I love fall! The cold weather has been inspiring me to sew! I started with a pattern by my favorite company Oliver+S out of their book "little things to sew." The hats were super simple to sew up. I used wool and fleece for my older daughter and just fleece for the baby :)

Happy Birthday Sunshine!!!!

Wooden Dress Up Doll

Not bad for a $4.99 decorate it yourself project! Sunshine took it as serious business and colored it so pretty! I used Hobby Lobbies%40 off coupon too! Defiantly going to have to get more!

Naptime Crafts- Birthday stuff

I used this crown as inspiration. Would love to have gotten it! I hope this one turns out ok..

Here is her birthday crown-not finished and not cut out yet though. I am going to sew pink on the inside of it as well.

Here is progress on our birthday banner!
