Babies Make Every Post Cuter

November 22, 2011 Leave a Comment

Don’t they, though? Baby feet, baby cheeks, baby pot belly.

Squeeze attack! Can’t. Stop. Squeezing. …And kissing, and snuggling, and cuddling.

Today my little Chubbs modeled some darned cute courduroy baby bloomers & a floppy hat I stitched up recently for my friend’s little girl (who’s also, I might add, irresistably squeezable). Aren’t they fun? I had to share. And you know I’m not a huge garment sewist (sewer? Or is that the stinky place beneath the street?), but I just love how these turned out and I just might need to make a few more to keep.

Both patterns are from this awesome little book, Making Children’s Clothes, by Emma Hardy. Oh, I almost forgot, same book I used to make the strawberry dresses.

Super, super clear instructions & illustrations, with full-size paper patterns included. Every project I’ve made from this book has been a breeze. If you’ve got little ones in your life, you need this book!

Now I just need to start sewing more clothes for my kids before they grow too big (and too cool) for baby bloomers!
