So I have been working hard on creating my own little sets of baby bundles. The bundles include: Burp Cloth Blanky Bib Buntings Bird (Owl) They are all made using my own unique patternsΒ (Β© SamMadeWithLove 2014), and co-ordinating fabrics! This is the first prototype of my fabulous new Baby Bundle! This gorgeous set has been made using fabric that is bright and funky, rainbows and graphic frogs! This cute little set will be available in my ETSY shop in the next day or two, so keep your eyes peeled if you are interested!! More Baby Bundles to come in Unisex, Boy & Girl Colours!!
Been at the sewing machine again and made a few more things for our bub π Very excited to have a few things matching up now π This cute Bunting and Tag Blanky will match the patchwork (Starflower Block) quilt that I haven’t quite finished yet π My lovely mother helped me pin the quilt sandwich together today, so it’s ready to be put together!!! Big job, I think I”ll save that for another rainy day! Looking forward to seeing the finished product though!!
A special friend of mine recently had a beautiful baby girl and requested a custom made owl be made for her π This is the resulting HOOT! Isn’t she cute?! SHe has eyelashes and her new owners name is beautifully embroidered onto her belly! These owls always make me smile π As this owl was also for a friend of mine, I thought I’d make her darling daughter a matching TAG BLANKY! I love the colours in this one! The dimple minky really provides a lovely soft touch for baby to play with!! Congratulations to the beautiful Bonnie on your entrance to our world!!
A few orders came in and I’ve done the cutting! Trying to knock a few owls out today! As well as the custom ordered owls, there will be a few extra; so keep your eyes out for them in my shop!!
So after a disappointing start on Sunday, I decided to vent my frustrations and put all my wound up energy into creating some more owls. I decided that the new owls needed to be able to sit up & I also thought that they might look better with little feet. On Sunday, I copied the pattern at increased percentages and drew up a new pointy oval (for a gusset) and also a new foot pattern. I made a large owl on Sunday night, but wasn’t entirely impressed with his ability to sit upright. After a lazy start yesterday morning and trolling the web for ideas on gussets for almost 2 hours, it finally came to me. I finally figured that to make the owls stand up I had to sew a right angle into their bums, then sew diagonally across the seams. Voila!! BINGO!! It worked π So I set to making the medium and small owls and was pretty impressed with how they turned out π Was told by one of my good friends that I wasn’t allowed to put them on the internet until she saw them!! So now she has given me the stamp of approval, I am pleased to show off Sam’s Owls Version 2.0!! Hope you like them! There are increasing orders for these and other jewellery, so if you want something custom made, get in quick before Christmas!!
Here are some cute little owls I made based on a bag I saw (inspired much?!). I drew up a new pattern and got sewing!! These have proven to be very popular, and looks like I will have to make a number of batches!! Meet Sam’s Owls Version 1.1!! OAKLEY OSCAR OLLIE ONSLOW OZZIE OPHELIA OLIVE
