My story...

I have two little boys.



Little boys are super-cute.



Most of the time, their clothing options are not.



I decided that the gaping hole in this market needed to be filled. So my parents helped me buy a machine, and I am now obsessed with making anything I can. I'm having fun, I'm creating things, and I'm Thread Serious.

New examples...

Empire waist t-shirt dress with "Adrian" patch.



Ice Cream applique


Another double-circle patch shirt--this time for Sam.

More of the "clamdigger" pants.

Again, my model isn't the most cooperative person in the world.
Also, I'm offering these pants without the cargo pockets for $25.  I know how hard it is to find little boy's things without pockets all over them, so feel free to order without the pockets.  With pockets, they're $29.

New blanks...

I just got these adorable bubbles and dresses in.  I can't wait to try them out for someone.

Empire waist knit dress
12m, 18m, 2T, 4T

Both of these will be $22 with name or applique.  Patches and simpler appliques would probably work best for these--other things may be too big.

Empire waist knit bubble
6m, 12m, 18m, 24m
  
 A friend also asked me to make a birthday dress with matching smock.  They're having an art party.  I think the applique is pretty cute.  The paint colors can be changed, of course. 

 I'm now realizing I probably should have ironed everything before I took pictures rather than after. 

Fabric-covered buttons 

 Lastly, some t-shirts I've been working on...

New options…

First of all, thanks so much for all your sweet comments and encouragement. It means a lot.  I’m thrilled to be working on these things for you all, and I hope that you enjoy your pieces as much as I enjoy making them!

I’d love it if you’d “follow me,” too.  Just click the “follow” button to the left!

I’m going to work on pricing these new things in the next few days.

What I’ve been working on lately…

 

008

Dumptruck applique with “childsplay” font

002

Monogrammed burpcloth.  I actually finished this off with really cute pink ric-rac down the sides, but I forgot to take a picture. Whoops.

012

Smock top with heart pocket.  I think this is sweet for summer.

009

010

Detail of top

015

019

I didn’t make these baby bloomers, but I do have them available for monogramming.

032

Baseball applique with…

034

Matching baseball/baseball bat shorts.  I probably have enough of this for a few more pairs.

036

Boy’s clamdigger pants. (I think these would be cute for girls, too)

037

Cuff detail

041

Side cargo pockets

043

Pocket detail with contrasting fabric

My model.  He sort of cooperated this time. I think the length on these pants is cute on little boys.
