the one where I stuff all the clothes I've made lately into one post.

The title says it all in this one, right? I've been busy sewing up some fun clothes for the girls, and I have a busy April here on ye ol' blog (hint hint fun things in store! see the sidebar for a clue), so I thought I'd put them all into one ginormous post. So good luck to you all, hope you can finish it.

You just know I couldn't stop making these shirts! She grew out of her old ones anyways. They're adorable, and so fun to pick out the fabric pairings! This one I made the sleeves gathered a bit so they fit in better. See this tutorial for info about that. I also cut the front piece a little wider and gathered it a bit before sewing it to the bodice.

Politely begging for her Pez candies. I tell you, they work!

Oh, and those buttons? Adorbs, right? I got them here and was so excited when they went with this fabric-hooray for using up buttons! Or am I the only one who hoards and collects them? Nah! just kidding, I didn't think so.

Also, try not to notice the left side of the bodice I cut upside down. Why do I always point out these things? lol.

The main fabric is Chris Chun, Le Jardin de Papillons, Garden in Brown. The trim fabric is Clothworks Mostek-Avalon scallops in Pink. 

I've had this pink striped knit shirt waiting for me in my refashion pile for...like...eva, so I finally used it to make a top for the Sadester! I thrifted it-I love using thrifted knits from high quality companies, like Lands End, etc. I got this one for less than $1! I just sewed up a simple knit shirt...and then...

...I cut out little different sized circles and hand sewed them on across the front neckline-easy and pretty quick!

I also made a jean skirt for her-which is too poufy...my bad. It's still cute in these pics, but the fabric is so stiff it's a bit crazy. Oh well!

She is doing the hands on hips pose a lot lately, she cracks me up!

Here's a better shot of the skirt-it has some tucks along the bottom-I used this tutorial for that-very cute effect! Just wish I'd cut off some of the width. Oh well! That's my tiny 2 year old's fault for being tiny. I'll have to try again I guess.

I mixed it up with this new skirt of Sadie's....used this skirt tutorial and this pocket tutorial.

I think I needed some heavier interfacing for the waistband, but it works. We won't mention how I sewed the waistband on crooked. Oops.

The fabric I used is from my super cool sponsor, Lily Bella Fabrics! I used this for the main fabric, and this for the accent.

Sadie is letting me play with her hair lately, so I tried this braided do'. Pretty cute, and her hair looks AWEsome after it comes out, frizzy and going every which way. lol.

Of course, she's a fan of the pockets. Can you blame her? Pockets are awesome for kids.

 And I couldn't leave Charlotte out of the fun! I made this little knit shirt out of some fabric my supa cool bloggy friend Katie gave me!

 She seems to like it!

So whew! I hope you made it through that pile of clothing fairly unscathed.
