Blogdate!!

I am such a lazy blogger, I made stuff last week and haven't put it up yet!!

This is a top I made Taegan, the pattern is an Otto..



This is another Otto but I hadnt had enough coffee when I started making it and didn't read the destructions so it changed and i gave it a different waistband. It is a size 1 to 2..

Quinn loves this fabric so he got a long T out of it..
Quinn in his mama made top and vest!!

This is only half an outfit, It is the top to a set that I am making for Taegan's cousin Daisy.. I have to get off my bum and finish the pants so I can see what they look like on... CUTE..!

Close up, I love this fabric!!

More boys pants!!!

Yep thats right... I am really chuffed with these style pants, I like the rolled hem, I should get years out of them I think..maybe..lol.. All except I cant work out how I want to do the waist band, I have tried 3 diff ways so far and not happy with any.. I got some of this fabric really cheap at spotlight so the fabric all up probably amounts to $2 per pair of pants.. bargain!!! I have decided I am not buying clothes for Quinn anymore I am just going to make them, Taegan is a bit harder to please tho!
Anyhoo here are the pants, the darker ones are filthy cause he was wearing them in the yard today but I shook the crap out of them so they are passable for a pic.. and they look majorly cute on him..


Also is one of two baby wrap tops from otto that I made, I made one for a friends little bub Atticus and one for my sis inlaw's bub Elwood..

Boys Clothes

BOYS CLOTHES!!!

I stayed up way to late the other night making Bat pants for my little man, I am stoked with how they turned out, its a mostly self drafted (I used the measurements off the crotch of another pair of pants).. so I think they qualify as my own!!LOL

My dad dropped off some bags of clothes that were going to the oppy and I found a great orange T-shirt that I cut down to a long sleeve T-shirt and appliquéd(sp) a bat out of my bat print.. I love this print!!

And an awesome lady sent me some fabric that I have made a pair of PJ's for my little man, it is invincible boy print... Way cute!!! there will be more of these jimjams..
thanks for looking.. excuse the crappy photo's I want a new camera desperately...

My Piratey babies..

We had a Pirate themed birthday to go to on the weekend and I finally used the last of my jack skull knit for a singlet top for my little man.
He is wearing mama made everything today!!


















My gorgeous girl got a top out of the Ottobre fall o7 mag.. I really don't like the instructions for some of the clothes in those mags, I ended up winging it and it turned out really nice on her.. I am going to make another for my friends daughter who does not like girly stuff but her mum would like for her to wear some things girly, I think this knit dress might be a happy medium for them both!! I hope...






Oh and my overlocker...GGGGRRRRRR it is driving me crazy.. I cant seem to get the tension right and it refuses to sew with black thread, apparently some machines are funny like that because the black dye in the thread is more dense than in the lighter colours.. it sews with navy blue fine.. go figure!!

Skull Knit... heaps of it!!

I bought 2 mtrs of this fantabulous skull knit from Spotlight and have made heaps of things for all the gorgeous little boys in my life.. All there Birthdays are around the same time..


This was my first attempt at Ottobre clothing.. I love those mags..
So this is my little dude Quinn doing some modeling shots for mum in his skull knit top and red cordies..
















These are some fun little pants I made out of Drill for my friends little mans 2nd birthday.. They look great on him..
I made a skull top to go with them too.











This is the back of them, I wasn't too sure I liked this style of pockets on the back, but the looked really good in the end..











This is the whole out fit he got.. Very pirateee cool...








Quinn got some shorts with skull patches but I have to iron them before I put a pic up, another gorgeous little boy got a long T and Quinn got a black hoodie with skull knit lining the hood, I also did one for another gorgeous boy who is turning 4 too!!








And after all the Skull things I still have some left over!!
I am really ready to start sewing some other colours..LOL
