Ladies Summer Dresses

Finally I have taken some pics of some "non-baby" related clothes I've sewn recently!!

Since christmas I have been living in these summer dresses. Great to throw over bathers, around the house, duck out to the shops... anything really... It was very easy to make and i'll be making more and maybe as some tops too.

Here is a Red & Grey swirly pattern in a coton jersey material. I used some scraps to make a red plaited tie to go around the top.
















Here's another with a Black top & grey/square pattern cotton jersey for the skirt.

















I am currently sewing a heap of little girl skirts to sell, and i might try using Facebook this time.....

Georgia Dress

I was asked to test a pattern a few months ago now..... I have finally got some photo's of the Georgia Dress pattern from Little Lizard King. It's too cute and was soooo easy to make! It has a gathered strip across the chest and back, I also added a fabric flower with a pink button onto the top.
It's for sale at Little Lizard King ETSY shop!

















Cheers

Ruffled Diaper Cover

How cute is this!! I made these for a friend, who needed a "Baby girl gift" for her cousin. These are a size 000 (0-6mths) and have 3 ruffles on the bum. Also a matching headband, which are a hit with little girls!!!



















I gave them to my friend today and I couldn't wait to post some photos of them, they are too cute! I am going to make up a heap and sell them through Facebook, so keep posted if you would like to purchase some.

I have been like sewing crazy and there is too much to post about. I can't wait to post some pics of Little Lizard's Knickers when the pattern is ready for sale, here is a teaser....

Up & Abouts Again!!!

Hi all,

Wow it has been a crazy few months and apologies for not blogging...... From Nov 2010 to Feb 2011 we have been so busy with so many things, most important, organising the sewing room! A huge thanks to my hubby who has wanted me to clean out the room for years, so he can make me the perfect desk for the machines, so we did it! He ripped apart the old table and whipped me up a new table! He even had some spare wood left to make Talia a little matching table! Now I just need a trip to Ikea to sort out storing everything, I have promised to keep the room tidy now.... ummm... maybe I shouldn't have made that promise, opps....

The night before we left for our holiday to Busselton, I whipped up some Rashie bathers for Talia. She also had some HeavenLee Creation bathers for her Swimming lesson this week!
















I did a lot of sewing for Christmas, birthday's, testing patterns for Little Lizard King, which are always soo much fun!
















For Christmas I sewed about 15 of these cute little skirts.. unfortunatley I was in such a hurry i forgot to take some photo's of them all, but here are 2 of Talia's fav's.... I used a pattern from Two Little Banshees, with a few extra ruffles added in...

















And the most important of all, we are all finally healthy and well after our holiday! We left our flu germs in Busselton and they are staying there!!!

Hope everyone had a great christmas and holidays!
Love Lee
