Children's clothing



I made these years ago for my daughter (26) however, I have made the pattern many times for gifts.
It takes me a little over an hr. Prices on these would be $20 - more if I shop for the material and thread. Smallest it comes is 1/2. Largest- The Bubble suit can be made with or without snaps. The sun dress can be made a variety of ways - different materials and laces to make it fancier.

hankie bonnets




Mothers and grandmothers used to make bonnets out of heirloom hankies, I am not sure where the custom came from but they make nice baby shower gifts. You can buy your own hankie and send it to me to make the bonnet or I can pick one out of my stash, just tell me the color you want. I have pink, yellow, blue roses hankies and assorted hankies I bought from antique stores. These will be priced at $6 plus shipping. Most of the time, they can be sent in a regular envelope, bonnet would be wrapped in plastic. It would take 2 first class stamps to mail.
