Miss K's winter clothes

Obviously, not all of her winter clothes, just the ones that Mom made.

Made from one of my old sweaters that was too short. It's looking a bit short on Miss K, too! I just recut the sleeves and shoulders and took in the sides. Super easy and very cute.


I love this little shirt. So simple and girly. Next time I make this pattern, I'll try pleating the little collar insert instead of ruffling it. I learned a new technique of make a separate lining to attach to the hem of the shirt and sleeves to create a flared look.


Whenever Miss K would come into my sewing room, she would immediately pull out this fabric and snuggle up with it. I knew I needed to make something with it before she outgrew the yardage I had. I used her jammie shirt pattern and just extended the length to create a dress. I really like how it turned out and Miss K loves it.



This might be my favorite item of clothing I sewed for Miss K this winter. It is a shirt/dress/tunic thing - I'm not sure which. It is extra long with a cute little hood and made from flannel. I saw this pattern on another site and loved it, but not the $15 price tag. My friend, Carrie, and I came up with the pattern on our own. Super cute!


Miss K loves to twirl, so when Dana from MADE did a circle skirt with thick elastic waistband tutorial, I knew I had to make one. I choose a very light weight dark chambray for the fabric. It was so incredibly easy. I see a lot of these cute little skirts in Miss K's summer wardrobe.
