Purple Pants with "Flowllors"




Here's the next installment of pants. The front side has little interest so here is a shot of the back. The fabric is nice and soft, but seems to collect a bit of anything it touches. Don't think too much of the picture either, it seems to imply the pockets are wonky and they aren't actually, it's just not lying straight :) They seem to be loved though! More on the way...

Pink Fuzzy Goodness




What could possibly be better for a little girl than elastic waisted, stretchy, fuzzy on the inside, PINK pants with a bow? I just can't quite think of anything :) I hope they fit! There might also be a second pair coming when Miss 2 year old "I like Pink!" sees them.

Recycled Pants




One of my favorite pairs of pajama pants need to be retired. The elastic was shot and the pants just fell to the floor and there was some paint around the cuffs from half a decade ago. The velvet is so very soft though and much of it was still in good condition, so they have now been through the miraculous shrinking machine (a.k.a. my sewing machine) and have become just the right size for a little four year old whose is ever so excited to be wearing what used to be Mama's pants.

Thanks, Martha







This is a set of potholders that I gave as a birthday present for my dearest friend. Completely inspired by a blanket and pillow that Martha made with a two sided heavy felt which made the holes go all the way through and the turned up edges showed off the back side fabric. This is my modification for both function and materials available. The green one is my favorite :)
