Eco Love

Thanks to Eco-Etsy, for including one of my Baby Tees in their selection of Eco Friendly Valentine's Day Gifts (and another in their treasury)!

You can check out the lovely selection of items here.

Sneak peak

A little peak at what I managed to accomplish this week! Life has been busy, I have been teaching full-time for the last 2 weeks and possibly will be for the next two. Not to mention the mounds and mounds of snow that are piling up outside that seem to slow everything down to a snail's pace. C'est la vie! Some warm, vibrant colours to warm you up!

I should be posting these in another day or two and you can get a full look at them then. Now off to enjoy a nice evening before the fire! Happy weekend, all!

Organic Knit Tops

This week's feature: Three new organic cotton knit tops that I designed and made for my daughter to keep the chill of winter away! Hooray!

*

The first one I made was this classic long-sleeved top with a very subtly scooped neck which makes it easy to take off and put on but still allows for good coverage. Sewn with a beautiful soft striped blue / cream / grey organic cotton.

The second top I made was this turtleneck. Thanks to the stretchability of this rib knit, this turtleneck easily slips on and off, and if it didn't, my daughter would let me know! She loves the pink stripes on this one and I think the bold stripes make it a little more fun. Both of these styles would suit a boy or a girl.

The last top I designed is this tunic and is probably my favourite. I love the silhouette of this one and the muted tones as well, I could almost see me wearing it. For a little extra flare I made a shifted cowl neck and to me it just looks so classically chic - and on a little one, just darling. This tunic looks great over a pair of leggings.

I will be offering these in my shop. The fabrics in these tops are interchangeable and the tops themselves are made to order, so you can mix and match as you like!

Next week if the stars align I will post about a new organic hat and onesie set. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week everyone!

Tweet Tweet - New Baby Tee / Onesie

Yesterday I posted this new baby tee with the thought of sweet love in mind.



The design itself took many hours of playing with the subtlety of shape and colour and juxtaposition of various fabrics and this is what I happily settled on in the end. The calling bird and heart appliqués were cut from two fabrics by Harmony Art, a chili red heavy organic cotton flannel, and a sturdy interlock of paisley and flowers overtop called Ohio, which I absolutely adore.



I have a new onesie and hat set on the cooker that should be posted by next week - kind of a variation on an earlier set I made.

New Jammies

A couple of pics of M in her new Mama-made Christmas jammies - nice and cozy organic cotton flannel. She really needs warm pjs at night as she insists on being covered only with her favourite blankie, which is not warm enough for Mama's liking - but everything else she kicks off. Funny girl!
