Tiny Teddy hat

24 October 2011 in Hats by piia | 1 comment

I am finally adding something here in the forgotten blog. It has been so busy with the little baby that I haven’t gotten much time to sew. However, the winter is coming and I wanted to make the little boy warm but cute hat. (A hat is fast enough to sew when he is napping ;) ) The hat is brown velor and has jersey lining for the warmth. I sewed little teddy ears to the seams and I think it turned out cute cute cute. Well, the little guy inside the hat is so cute that anything looks cute on him. ;)

New arrival

31 August 2011 in Other by piia | 7 comments

Our family has grown with a little brother. He is adorable and we just spend all days getting to know this happy little boy. So, the blog is a bit quiet now, but as soon as our life settles down a bit, I will post about all the little things I have made for the new arrival. Now I gotta go and cuddle with the little cutie. Awww, I am so in love!!! ;)

Stripy baby

19 July 2011 in Overalls by piia | No comments

I have been organising baby clothes lately as I realised that the baby could actually come any day now. Although I am sure this little one keeps us waiting just like his big brother did ;) Nevertheless, it is good to be prepared and therefore I made this little stripy outfit in newborn size. It is made of stripy terry and has hemp knit lining inside. I thought it would be good outfit to bring the newborn baby home from the hospital. Just can’t wait to see the little one in his stripy suit!!

Mommy’s little monster

13 July 2011 in Sweaters, Trousers by piia | 2 comments

This outfit is also for my friend’s baby. She saw the cotton knit in my fabric piles and wanted a hoodie from it. It is really nice and soft knit with cute little colourful monsters and text I’m a little monster! ;) I used press buttons in the front and also made matching velor pants with kneepads to go with the hoodie. The outfit is size 70cm but the trousers will definitely fit long because of long ribbing on the waist and ankles. Perfect for mommy’s little monster!

Baby jeans

12 July 2011 in re-design, Trousers by piia | 2 comments

My friend asked me to make some baby jeans for her little bellybaby who will be born later this year. She wanted colourful sets that would fit nicely for both a boy or a girl. I made few jeans out of her old stretchy jeans that were nice and soft for baby clothing. I added giraffe applique in the front and small pockets at the back. Yellow ribbing gives nicely colour to the dark denim. The size is 68cm.

Another pair in size 62cm got orange ribbing for colour and an owl applique in the front. Both of them turned out really cute. I just can’t wait to see the little one wearing them!

Few colourful pouches

10 July 2011 in Accessories by piia | No comments

I have been making bunch of colourful pouches lately with different cute animal appliques. I think in the summertime I just want to make colourful combinations in what ever I sew and it seems my yellow and green fabrics seem to tempt me the most. Those are the summer colours for me ;)

Here are few details on some of the new pouches. They have found a home already, but I will try to get some more done for the Retrobug shop too. It is getting close to the due date here, so my schedules are a bit off. Napping seems to take priority in many occasions ;) I wonder when this little baby will decide to come to this world.. Less than four weeks to go. :)

Red bunny dress

31 May 2011 in Dresses by piia | No comments

Here’s a little red dress for a little one year old girl. The dress is made of red velor and has bunny applique in front. Long sleeves are handy for chilly Spring or Summer days and the cut is nice and wide so it is also comfortable to wear.

I am busy packing and sewing and getting everything ready for few weeks of holiday. I am going to Finland with Onni while I still can fly with this belly passenger of mine. ;) I do hope it will be sunny and warm. So, it will most likely be quiet here in the blog, but I hope you all are enjoying the Summer where ever you are. :) See you in few weeks.

Pretty in pink

26 May 2011 in Dresses by piia | 2 comments

I found a small piece of this adorable pink vintage fabric and I just had to make a little wrap up dress out of it. Isn’t this just perfect for a little baby princess? The dress is size 68cm and is closed in front with press buttons. The top has pink lining. I must say I love it even though I am not a big fan of pink. If only I had a little princess to wear something like this ;)

You can find this pink dress in Retrobug Shop.

Happy Monster

25 May 2011 in Shirts by piia | 2 comments

I made this happy monster shirt for Onni today. He is into monsters these days, as well as dinosaurs. Anything that growls is cool and he sure likes to play one too. :) There is a lot of growling in the house these days. But it is ok, as long as the monsters and dinosaurs are nice. And they are. If they do something naughty, Onni is very strict to put them in the naughty corner and have them apologize. ;) So cute!

Baby bunnies

20 May 2011 in Sweaters, Trousers by piia | 4 comments

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here on the blog (Sorry about that!!) but I have been busy making bunch of stuff. There has been lot of bunny clothing for little kiddies in the making as well as some summer skirts for bit bigger girls. Now I finally got to take pictures and show you some of them.

This bunny outfit is for a little baby boy and it is size 70cm. It is made of soft velor and the hood has a white lining. I added press buttons in front in stead of zipper because in such a small clothing I feel they are more comfortable. :) The trousers are off white and have no side seams. Comfy comfy! It is nice to make a bit more calm coloured clothing for a change and not just bright reds and oranges all the time.
