The title of this post is not something I would ever have thought I would utter in my lifetime but, today I did. I finished Petunia’s stuffed duckie’s matching Christmas pajamas today and here they are: Our pajama tops are just gray thermal tops but I used gray jersey knit for the duck’s instead because that’s [...] Read the rest of The Duck’s Pajamas Are Done

Leave it to me during the busiest time of the year to come up with more and more (and more) ideas of things to sew in time for Christmas. My latest (after matching pj’s for Petunia and me and before matching pj’s for her stuffed duck) is a friend for Pink Bunny, which I made [...] Read the rest of Pink Bunny Gets A Friend

I am apparently not a very good blogger. Not only do I not blog often enough, but I also forget to take pictures of the things I KNOW that I’m going to blog about. Case in point: I knew I wanted to blog about the crafty night I was going to do with the Mommies [...] Read the rest of Do You Tutu?

I sew when I’m stressed out. Or when I’m happy. Or when the sun shines. And on any day ending in “y”, mostly. I’ve been doing a lot of sewing for the shop and realized that I’ve been telling The Tot that I’ll make her all kinds of things and then promptly forgetting [...] Read the rest of Leopard Surprise!

I had too much fun sewing this latest blanket set! I LOVE how this one came together! I started by saying to myself, “Self: you need another girl blanket set for your Etsy shop .” I set about looking through my stash, figuring out what material I had for backing, what cottons I had [...] Read the rest of Too Much Fun!

Here at Casa de Tot, we are big on tutus. Angelina Ballerina is a favorite and ballet dancing is a daily activity. Which makes potty training interesting since there have to be leotards involved. But that’s another story for another day (and maybe another blog). I posted pictures in an earlier post of some [...] Read the rest of Do You Tutu?

These days The Tot is very into Angelina Ballerina and routinely wants to wear her leotard, tights, ballet shoes (thank you Cousin Amy!) and 5 tutus. Yes, five. One is attached to said leotard but the other 4 have been randomly picked up or acquired over the past year or two. Let’s just say they’re [...] Read the rest of Tutus Everywhere!

Well, I never got around to taking pics of the kimono shirt. I think it’s in the wash. I’ll try and do that soon. But I did take pics yesterday of the newest baby blanket AND a cute little outfit that I made for The Tot. Read the rest of Just Finished Cuteness

Last night I finished binding The Sherbet Quilt and I have to say that it is one of my absolute favorites! It is made of 100% cotton in fun Spring-ey prints and solids with an adorable pink/owl cotton backing. It has polyester batting between and is bound with machine and hand-stitching. This [...] Read the rest of Happy Spring Quilt! :)

I’ve finally finished quilting the Sherbet Quilt and just have to bind it now. “Just” have to bind it. That can be the most painful process for me because I machine stitch the front and hand stitch the back. Can you say “hand cramps”? Oh well, I always love the finished [...] Read the rest of Quilted Sherbet!
