Bottoms and Books


The other night I stayed up and sewed up some thicker and warmer little pants for Violet. They are the same pattern as the" simple baby pants" ones from this book. Fabric was from the op-shop with the pink lined with fleece and the patterned lined in flannel. It is proving to be a little difficult finding ample sized pants that will fit over a cloth nappy. In the shops it is all about tiny. Sewing up a few pairs is so easy.  I think there will be some more pants making later in the week.


 Another trip to the library this week, with a good pile of books to flick through and do a little reading.


Lot's of tempting knitting patterns in there.


Ah, books and a cup of tea. Heaven!

  2. Heaven all right! I think I may join you in your books & tea ways.
    The pants are super cute, I've been meaning to sew some more up for the little man. Now I simply must. I'm off to raid the stash.
    Have a beautiful weekend.

  3. I love the navy and red print - gorgeous! I've been thinking about doing some natural plant dying too - would love to hear how it goes if you try it out.
