Makie

For the moms, moms-to-be, and wanna-be-moms:  Check out Makie Clothier!

I love these looks for children (and adults too!) – neutral tones, simple, sophisticated with cute little details and trimmings.

For little men:

For little women:

For adult women (yes!):

A little side note:   This was my first attempt at sewing a pair of baby bloomers from a Japanese Makie pattern book a few years back.  If you are interested in sewing your own, I purchased my copy here.

Little Polka Dot Dress

I had more than a few moments to spare over the weekend and put this together from the Tie Top Tank Tute that was mentioned in an earlier post. I kind of twisted the pattern a bit and turned it into a little girl’s dress….with polka dots!

Polka dots = smiles and so cute for children.

Also, my eBay purchase arrived – a Japanese book full of children’s clothes patterns. Too adorable for words and unfortunately, photos as well. Yeah…that is correct. I did not take photos of the inside….ugh! Well, I will get around to it, but for right now I am taking on two sewing projects from the book – felt baby shoes + baby bloomers.
