Spring Fashion Trends (Small Child Edition)

So I have taken up sewing.  I am (about to be) the mother of two little girls...in the South.  It would be unethical not to make cute matchy things for them to wear.  Really though, my mom sewed for my sister and me, and it was a sweet part of our childhood.  I have deferred to her to sew for my children, which is a wonderful blessing.  But, I would like them to have a few things made by my hands.  My first little outfit is by no means perfect, but a good place to start.  {Pattern TAYLOR}






I plan to make a little top (birds) and bloomers (pink) out of this sweet fabric next {FRANNIE BABY}. Stay tuned.


Went to a children's consignment right down the street from our house today and got a steal. My $25.00 well-spent:



Feltman Brothers day gown and Paty sleeper (pictured above) for little sister.



Sweet two-piece with tags still on (msr $20.00).



Little raincoat for big sister.



Cute springy maternity wear for mama.



And for your viewing pleasure, please notice the bow in the hair. It was in for a total of 43 seconds and may never be witnessed in public.
